A、restrict
B、restrain
C、support
D、stimulate
【正确答案】:D
【名师解析】:题目中提到的"The U.S. Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC)"是一个美国的政府机构,其目的是通过提供资金支持来促进海外投资。题目中的关键信息是"at least $120 million to spur investment",这里的"spur"意味着刺激或促进。因此,选项D "stimulate"(刺激)与"spur"的含义最为接近,是正确的答案。其他选项A "restrict"(限制)、选项B "restrain"(抑制)和选项C "support"(支持)虽然可能在某些情况下与投资有关,但它们与"spur"的含义不匹配。"Support"虽然有支持的意思,但不如"stimulate"直接表达出促进投资的意图。
