— Hurry up, or you’ll miss the deadline. Time is _______________.

A．running out

B．dying out

C．giving out

D．bursting out

Answer 1

A

試題分析：run out用完，到期,期滿；die out滅絕，消失；give out分發(fā)，發(fā)出，用盡；burst out突發(fā)，爆發(fā)。give out 意思是耗盡精神方面的能量，常指精疲力竭但也可指耗盡物質(zhì)方面的東西，。Their determination finally gave out. 他們最終失去了決心。run out 意思是耗盡物質(zhì)方面的東西，如：Our supplies finally ran out. 我們的供給終于耗盡了。但是指時(shí)間耗盡時(shí)只能用run out.
點(diǎn)評：對于固定短語的考查是近幾年高考的熱點(diǎn)，需要考生平時(shí)多記多練，熟練掌握它們的用法及區(qū)別。

A. running out       B. come out       C. give out         D. burst out
