问题    Memorandum
   To:    Juan Gomez
   From:  Maria Johnson, Building Engineer
   Date:  17 Jan. 20__
   Re:    Thermostat located in your office
   It has come to our attention that the thermostat located in your office is frequently being turned off. Please be aware that although this thermostat is located in your office, it actually controls the temperature on the entire second floor. When it is turned off, it affects not only your office, but all the surrounding offices as well. We ask that you not touch the thermostat. The other second floor tenants are complaining about the lack of heat in their offices.
   If you wish to adjust the temperature in your office at any time, please speak with me or with one of my assistants. We would be happy to help you create an environment that is comfortable for you and your office staff, but please remember that we need to consider the comfort of everyone in the building. Thank you for your cooperation.
The word "adjust" in paragraph 2, line 1 is closest in meaning to

选项 A、pay for
B、change
C、look at
D、open

答案B

解析 Adjust means to alter or change. Choice (A) is confused with the fact that one has to pay for heating, but this message is not about heating bills. Choice (C) is something one does to the temperature in a room, but it doesn’t fit the context. Choice (D) is a word that cannot be used with temperature.
