选项
A、promised
B、reminded
C、offered
D、forced
答案
D
解析
句中的sell their shares是卖掉股份的意思,根据上下文可知,这种行为不是正常的,而是在危机下不得不采取的行为,A.promised意为“保证”,应该是外国投资商要卖掉股份,所以在此句中不能用被动语态形式的be promised to do sth.。B.reminded意为“提醒”,卖掉股份这一举动是他们自己想到的,而不是某人或某事提醒的。C.offered意为“提供”,与A同理。D.forced意为“强迫”,be forced to do sth.表示“被迫做某事”。显然D符合上下文的意思。
