Though the “No smoking” signs have existed for long in public places, heavy smokers often ________ them and light up cigarettes.
A.abandonB.postpone
C.declineD.ignore
D
答案:D 考查动词词义辨析。句意为:虽然“禁止吸烟”的标志已经在公共场所存在很久,但是烟瘾大的人经常忽视它们,并点燃香烟。abandon意为“遗弃,放弃”;postpone意为“延期,延后,延缓”;decline意为“下降,衰退”;ignore意为“忽视,不顾,不理”。根据题干中的though可知,前后句是让步关系,此处指的是忽视禁烟标志,ignore符合语境。故答案选D。
