A. ignored
B. refused
C. neglected
D. denied
答案:
A. ignored
B. refused
C. neglected
(答案→)D. denied
解析:句意:在经过多年的艰苦斗争后,也就是一直到19,在这段时间里美国妇女被剥夺了选举的权利。ignore 忽视;refuse拒绝;neglect 忽视。deny是及物动词,作“否认”解时,可接名词、代词、动名词或that从句作宾语,但一般不接动词不定式作宾语。引申作“拒绝给予”解时,可接双宾语,这里deny sb the right to do 剥夺了做某事的权利,这里to do作定语修饰前面的名词right,这里是这个短语的被动形式,故选D。
