问题 It is implied in the second paragraph that
The word "retribution"(Paragraph 3) most probably means

选项 A、severe punishment.
B、painstaking effort.
C、permanent romance.
D、timely repayment.

答案A

解析本题是一道词汇题，考查对于超纲词汇词义的准确推导。"retribution"的含义是"严厉的惩罚"，故选项A是正确答案。在解题时应认真仔细体味理解上下文的含义。本句中的"including the crudest of tortures(拷打，折磨)"对推导"retribution"(严厉的惩罚)一词的含义至关重要。
