That mistake almost ________ him his lif...

That mistake almost ________ him his life.

A. took    B. paid    C. cost

 

C 【解析】 句意:那个错误几乎让他付出了自己的生命。选项三个词都有花费的意思,take的主语常为it,构成It takes sb. some time to do…句式,意为“做某事花费某人一段时间”;B项paid为pay的过去式,其主语通常是人,构成固定短语pay…for…“为…支付…”;cost是及物动词“耗费、花费”,其主语是物。根据词法要求,故选C项。
