这是一个复合句,主句是The news was ___ with disbelief ,中间的 that Lindbergh intended to fly theAtlantic alone(林德伯格打算单独飞跃大西洋)是说明 news 具体内容的同位语从句.
显然,主句是被动语态,空白处它的谓语动词,也是解决问题的关键所在.把它转换为主动语态就是 someone ___ the news with disbelief.把各个选项填入空白并结合同位语从句来判定那个正确:
A. Someone received the news with disbelief(有人以怀疑的态度接收到这个消息)
B. Someone accepted the news with disbelief (有人以怀疑的态度承认就这个消息)
C. Someone took the news with disbelief (有人以怀疑的态度看待这个消息)
D. Someone met the news with disbelief (有人以怀疑的态度面对这个消息)
由此可知,只有C才是正确选项.
