Question

—Mary got the first prize in the writing competition after years of hard work.

—_________.

A.No pain, no gain B.A miss is as good as a mile

C.Don't burn the candle at both ends D.A friend in need is a friend indeed

Answer

A

【解析】

句意：——经过多年的努力，玛丽在写作比赛中获得了一等奖。——没有付出就没有收获。

考查谚语知识。No pain, no gain没有付出就没有收获；A miss is as good as a mile失之毫厘谬以千里；Don't burn the candle at both ends不要过度消耗精力；A friend in need is a friend indeed患难见真情。根据句意，可知这里是表达没有付出就没有收获，故选A。
