Although Xiamen is a gorgeous city, Harry still decided that he would drive all the way home instead of _____ at a hotel for the night. A．putting down B．putting off C．putting on D．putting up

Answer 1

D

试题分析：根据句意我们可以知道这里应该是填一个有“住下”含义的词组，肯定不是这些put系列词组的最常见的意义，其中put up除了“举起，抬高，建造，搭建，提供。举起”之意外，还有“投宿、过夜”的意思，符合题意。put down放下，支付；put off推迟，拖延，滞留，拒绝，让打消念头；put on穿上，运行，假装；put up句意：他还是决定一路开车回家而不是到旅馆投宿。
