A)increased
B)increase

A)goup
B)stepup
C)riseup
D)turnupAnswer:B)stepup解析:此题考查动词短语的用法。句意要求表达加快已有的“进度”。“goup”通常表示增加或上升,不用于表“加速某过程”,排除A;“riseup”意为“起义、站起来”,不符合句意,排除C;“turnup”意为“出现、调大音量”,也不符合句意,排除D。只有“stepup”表示“加快、增强”,符合题意,所以正确答案为B)stepup。15、Choosethecorrectwordtofillintheblankfromtheoptionsgivenbelow:Themoviewasso引人注目thatit_(1)causedabigstirattheboxoffice.A.astonishingB.imposingC.captivatingD.intimidatingAnswer:CExplanation:
