动词辨析题。句意为：当婴儿九个月大时，研究人员要求妈妈们描述她们在怀孕期的饮酒量。分析句子结构可知，they had ______ during pregnancy是修饰alcohol的定语从句，从句省略了的关系代词that/which作选项动词的宾语。所以选择consumed“消耗，喝光”，这里可表示“喝(酒)”。assumed“承担，以为，采用”，resumed“继续，恢复”和exhausted“用完，耗尽”均不符合句意，故排除。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
