问题     Every year just after Christmas the January Sales start. All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks, they are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we don’t like crowds and in any case are short of money as we have to buy lots of Christmas presents.
    Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself.
    When I arrived at the station, my husband was not there. So I sat down in a nearby cafe to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. "Oh, dear !" I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but two televisions. We shall not be going to the sales again.
The phrase "split up" in the second paragraph means "______".

选项 A、break apart
B、cause to break
C、become pieces
D、go in different directions

答案D

解析 “split up”一词出现在文中第二段第三行,根据该短语所在句,我们可以得知,“split up”与其后的“meet again”是相反的意思。
