【单选题】 The hum of conversation ______ as the chairman mounted the rostrum.
A．died out
B．died off
C．died of
D．died away

网考网参考答案：D
网考网解析：
[解析] D项“die away(声音等)逐渐消失”符合题意。如：The noise of the motorcar died away. (摩托车的噪声消失了。)其他三项“A项die out灭绝，消失；B项die off相继死去直至死光；C项die of死于”都不正确。本题是说当主席登上讲坛，说话的嗡嗡声逐渐消失。因此D项为正确答案。 查看试题解析出处>>
