(2013·湖北高考)While intelligent people can often ________ the complex, a fool is more likely to complicate the simple.

A．sacrifice

B．substitute

C．simplify

D．survive

答案

C

解析

C　考查动词辨析。句意：聪明人常常能使复杂的事简单化，然而愚蠢的人更有可能使简单的事复杂化。sacrifice牺牲，奉献；substitute代替，取代；simplify使……简单化；survive幸存，幸免于。前后分句表对比，故C项符合句意。
