Question

一道英语题。顺便翻译下

I don't say that to persuade you, but merely to __ my conscience.

A. revolve B. relieve C. retrieve D. revive

Answer 1

个人认为选B
I don't say that to persuade you, but merely to relieve my conscience.
句意为：我说那些并不是为了说服你，只是为了是我的良心得到宽慰。

Answer 2

B .relieve. 使轻松，使缓解，使松弛，如释重负。最接近句意。
