  • 正确答案:C
    suspend“悬挂,推迟,暂停”,如,Thepublicbusinesswassuspendedforfivedays.“暂停公务5天。”survive“比……长命,幸免于,幸存”,如,Heistheonlyonewhosurvivedthewarinthisfamily.“他是这个家中唯一的战争幸存者。”这两个词显然不合题意,故排除。heal“治愈,愈合”,后面不能直接跟某一种疾病,而通常跟“伤口”,如,curethediseasesandhealthewounds“救死扶伤”。combat“和……斗争,战斗”,如,combattheenemy“与敌人搏斗”,后面可以跟disease,表示“与疾病作斗争”。
