问题 The author cites the example of the 16-year-old Albanian high-school drop-out to show
The phrase "tip off" (Line 2, Para.6) most probably means_____

选项 A、support financially
B、persuade forcefully
C、inform secretly
D、confirm confidently

答案C

解析 词汇题。根据上下文分析,tip off出现在这样的一句话中:便宜的国际电话使移民与家乡联系非常容易。根据逻辑,他们肯定是在电话中告诉家乡的亲戚说这里有工作等着他们来干,而且很可能是“暗中通知”而非“极力劝说”,所以C是最佳选择。A和D可以很容易排除。
