Question

请问下有没有人知道下面这题英语选择题应该选哪个选项？

The President went on to say he was （pursuing） a new strategy, but not everybody was convinced.
A.chasing after B.running after C.going after D.tracing after
上题中括号里的pursuing和下面哪个选项是近义词？

Answer 1

不敢与一楼苟同。pursue - 动词，意思是追赶。在这道题，所要的选项都是以追赶、追捕为同义词。但是PURSUE还有另外一个意思，就是追求，也就是这道题的含义，总统说他正在追求另外一个计划。

选项C是对的，因为GOING AFTER和PURSUE一样，不仅有追捕的意思，也有追求的意思。go after sth 是“达到某个目的”或“得到某样东西”的意思，所以应该选C。
譬如：The champion said he wants to go after the world cup.

Answer 2

B
running after is an informal way to say someone is "persuading". that'll make sense for not every of the auditors were "convinced"

Answer 3

选C。
首先不存在.chasing after 和.tracing after。他们是及物动词。
chase基本等同于run after.表追赶
而题目中需要一个表追求的词going after 刚好有这意思。

Answer 4

总统继续说他是(追求)一项新的策略,但不是人人都被说服了
A 捕 B运行后
C去后 D跟踪后
根据语意选C吧....

Answer 5

D
