Question

—Did you notice that Peter looked pale and______ all the time in the English class?

—Yes. He told me that he was______ these days.

A.stayed cool; on a diet B.kept silent; under the weather C.kept still; out of place

Answer

B

【解析】

句意：——你注意到彼得在英语课上脸色苍白，一直保持沉默吗？——对。他告诉我这些天他身体不舒服。

考查动词短语。stayed cool保持冷静；kept silent 保持沉默；kept still保持不动。on a diet节食；under the weather身体不舒服；心情不好；out of place不得其所的；不适当的；第一空是保持沉默，用kept silent；第二空是说身体不舒服。用under the weather。根据题意，故选B。
