Degradation is a process whereby words of good origin fall into ill reputation or non-affective words come to be used in derogatory sense. Which of the following words belong to this process?( )
A、thing
B、butcher
C、alibi
D、hussy
【正确答案】:D
【题目解析】:本题考查词义降格的常见例词。thing原义指集会,现义指任何事物,butcher原义指杀山羊的人,现义指屠夫,alibi原义指不在场证明,现义指辩解​,都属于词义的扩大​;hussy原义指家庭主妇,现义指没有道德的女人,属于词义的降格。词义的降格是词从表示褒扬或中性的意义向表示贬义的意义的演变过程。故D选项符合题意。
