问题 As the ship is loaded, it will sink deeper and deeper into the water, but only sink deep enough to______an amount of water equal to the weight of the ship and its cargo.

选项 A、dismiss
B、offset
C、displace
D、squeeze

答案C

解析 C选项:displace的意思为“排水”,如:As a ship gets heavier,it displacesmore and more water.(随着轮船重量增加,它的排水量就越来越大。)句意:当船舶装载时,它就会在水中越沉越深,但只有下沉得够深才能排开与船舶及其所载货物的重量相等的水量。故选C。其他三项意思分别是:dismiss撤职,使退去;offset抵消,补偿;squeeze挤,榨,捏。
