专四

单选题Mary hopes to be ________ from hospital next week.

A.dismissed 
B.discharged 
C.expelled 
D.resigned

参考答案:B进入在线模考
【译文】玛丽希望下周能出院。
【解析】动词含义。be discharged from hospital“出院”,这里discharge一词表示“使某人从监禁、护理或责任中释放出来”,如:discharge a patient(让病人出院),discharge a soldier(让士兵退伍)。因此B为正确选项。而dismiss意为“解雇;解散”,如:dismiss an employee(开除雇员);dismiss the class(下课)。Expel“驱逐”,如:the expelled invader(被驱赶的入侵者)。Resign“辞职”。皆不符合题意。
