※ 引述《terix (粽子~)》之銘言：
: 我看到一題題目
: The scandal has seriously________ him in many people's eyes.
: (A)exhausted (B)amazed (C)intimidated (D)diminished
: 我查過字典以後，也不知道正確答案是哪一各 > <"
: 有人可以幫我解答，順便翻譯這段句子好嗎？
: 感激不盡~
===================================================
以下為我幫他解答的內容

The answer to this question is D.
(A) exhaust
1. exhaust + certain entity
2. "someone is exhausted" means someone is extremely tired
(B) the scandal didn't amaze him, it amazed many people
(C) as above
(D) diminish
"diminish" means to lower one's fame
therefore,"The scandal has seriously diminished him in many people's eyes"
means he has been lowered his fame by the scandal.

right???
