练习 1
Bruno writes that "people are picketing the Delavigne offices as we speak".
He means that people are outside of the Delavigne offices .
He means that people are outside of the Delavigne offices .
Bruno writes that "people are picketing the Delavigne offices as we speak".
He means that people are protesting 1 outside of the Delavigne offices currently 2.
He means that people are protesting 1 outside of the Delavigne offices currently 2.
1 protesting: This is the correct answer. In English, the verb "to picket" has a few meanings but in this context it shares a similar meaning with the verb "to protest" or "to demonstrate". "To picket" expresses the physical act of "demonstrating", and often implies that protesters are shouting and possibly blocking the entrance of a building or interfering with the employees of a company.
1 eating outdoors: Do not confuse the verb "to picket" with "to picnic". They are very different.
1 marching: "Picketing" does not necessarily involve "marching". This is not the best choice here.
1 manifesting: Be careful: "to manifest" does not share a meaning with "to protest" and "to picket" in English. "To manifest" means "to become real" or "to become apparent/visible". For example: "The disease manifested as a rash".
2 currently: This is the best choice here. The expression "as we speak" indicates that something is happening at the current moment, or "at this very time".
2 actually: "Actually" does not express that something is happening at the current moment. In English the term is synonymous with "really" or "in fact" or "in actuality".
2 loudly: The expression "as we speak" does not indicate the volume at which people are talking.
2 apparently: The expression "as we speak" does not share a similar meaning with "apparently".
