问题 The word"offend" originally meant"to strike against", but now the word signifies "to create or excite anger". This is an example of__________.
选项 A.meaning shift B.broadening of meaning C.narrowing of meaning D.loss of meaning
答案 B
解析 考查语义变化。语义变化有多种:词义扩大(widening ofmeaning)、词义缩小(narrowing ofmeaning)和词义转移(meaning shift)。“0ffend”在古代的意思是“击打”,现在的意思是“冒犯,惹怒”,因此是词义的扩大。
