正确答案：D
withdraw“撤回(一项陈述、控告、提议等)，取回，撤退”，如：Herefusedtowithdrawtheoffendingexpression．“他拒绝收回冒犯的话。”withdrawmoneyfromthebank“从银行提款”。Ourtroopshadtowithdraw．“我们的部队不得不撤退。”delete“删除，擦掉(文字等)”，如：Severalwordshadbeendeletedfromtheletter．“几个字从那封信中删掉了。”compete“竞争，对抗(with／against)”，如：tocompetewith／againstothersforaprize“为奖金同别人竞争”；protest“抗议，反对”，如：protestadecision“反对一项决定”。所以根据以上分析并结合题意应选protest。
