Question

I _____ her not to walk on the thin ice but she would not listen to me.

         A. warned    B. persuaded    C. suggested    D. noticed

Answer 1

A

解析:

warn sb. (not) to do sth.警告某人（不）做某事。Suggest不能接sb. to do sth。persuade sb.(not) to do sth.說服、某人（不）做某事；本題中不能選D. persuaded, 因該動(dòng)詞強(qiáng)調(diào)行為的結(jié)果。從邏輯上講，既然“說服了”，那么與she wouldn't listen to me就前后矛盾了。如果把句子該為：I tried to persuade her not to walk on the thin ice but she wouldn't listen to me.(我極力勸她不要在薄冰上走，但她不愿聽我的話。)，那么就符合邏輯了。

[注意]warn sb. of sth.警告某人有......。wear out本題中意指（become useless form continued use of wear）用壞，穿破，如：The machine will soon wear out.(這機(jī)器即將用壞。)come to and end(結(jié)束)，put ... to use(投入使用), use up(用完)， come into use(開始投入使用)。
