题目：
(2013·高考天津卷)I had hoped to take a holiday this year but I wasn’t able to ________.
A．get away
B．drop in
C．check out
D．hold on
答案：
答案：A
选A。本题四个选项都是常见动词词组。get away脱身，逃离；外出度假；drop in顺便拜访；check out检查，核实；hold on坚持。根据but可知后面的wasn’t able to________与前面的had hoped to take a holiday构成转折关系，故get away符合题意。本题句意为“我本希望今年去度假，但是没能去成”。
