题目内容

A donkey may permit himself to fall under his burden, but not a human being, the best of creation.

题目选项

A. ...a human being should not fail like a donkey.
B. ...a human being should not behave like a donkey.
C. ...a human being should forever strive for a better life.
D. ...a human being should not give up under harsh conditions.

正确答案

D

题目解析

原句译文:一头驴可以让自己被压倒,但是人不能,人是上帝创造的最优秀的成果。本句真正强调的是人不会被困境(或困难)压倒,不会向困难屈服,因此A、B项中将人类和驴来作比较显得不符合原意;C项意为每个人都应该永远追求好的生活,与原文不符。答案为D。
