What does the underlined word “balloon” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Change
B.Increase
C.Fly
D.Shrink
参考答案:B
参考解析:
词义猜测题。根据第一段As the cost of a university education continues to balloon, many wonder whether the return on the investment is worth it and if there might be alternative paths to job success.可知,大学学费的不断提高使得许多人开始寻找就业的其他途径,因此结合上下文语义可以推断这里的balloon是形容教育成本在“上升”,故选B。
