1. Michael Evans is leaving the company to his own business interests. [1].A. chaseB. questC. pursueD. pose解析：chase多指“追捕，追逐，追求”，常与after连用。

quest侧重于“寻找，探索”之意，其名词用法出现较多，多以in quest of这一固定搭配出现。

pursue意指“追寻，追求，努力去获得或完成”。

pose意为“摆姿势；提出；造成（威胁、问题等）”。

根据此题句意，pursue 恰当地表达了“追寻，努力去获得”这一意义，故选C。

2. The exhibition will how life evolved from water. [2].A. explainB. projectC. illustrateD. quote解析：根据句意，首先可以排除B和D。

project用作动词时，指“放映，投射，计划，突出”；用作名词时意为“项目，计划，方案，课题”。

Quote多指“引用”。

explain和illustrate 都有说明之意，但explain特指“讲解，说明原因”，强调向别人阐明或解释其原来所不知道的东西；而illustrate指用图片、例子或实物去解释说明事物。

所以C为最佳答案。

3. These measures will increase the club's ability to revenue. [3].A. composeB. stimulateC. createD. generate解析：此题考查对词义的辨析。

Compose常指构成，组成，创作（多为乐曲，诗歌等）；stimulate 意为刺激，激励；create是指创造，创建，尤其强调创造出新事物；generate多指形成，产生。

故选D。

4. An extra lock on the door is an added against burglars. [4].A. insuranceB. assuranceC. relianceD. resistance解析：insurance指保险，预防措施，其后常接against；assurance多指保证，确信；reliance 意为依靠，依赖，常接on或upon；resistance是抵制的意思。
