(2013·高考陕西卷)My uncle hasn’t been able to quit smoking,but at least he has________.
A.cut outB.cut down
C.cut upD.cut off
B
选B。cut out裁剪,戒掉;cut down削减,压缩,缩减;cut up切碎,切开;cut off 切断,隔断,断绝。由语境My uncle hasn’t been able to quit smoking可知说话者的叔叔并没有“戒掉”吸烟,从后面的but at least的转折可以得知“他减少了吸烟的量”。因此该题的正确答案为B。题干的意思是:“我叔叔虽然没能戒掉吸烟,但是至少他吸得少了。”
