Question

Duty is an act or a course of action that people ______ you to take by social customs, law or religion.

　 A. persuade　　　 B. request　　　　 C. instruct　　　 D. expect

 

Answer 1

D

考查动词词义辨析。Persuade sb. to do sth意为“说服某人做某事”；request sb. to do sth意为“请求某人做某事”；instruct sb. to do sth意为“指导/命令某人做某事” ；expect sb. to do sth “期待/希望某人做某事”。根据句意：责任是人们通过社会惯例、法律或宗教信仰期望你来承担的一种行动或行动的过程。可知选择D项。
