Question

The teachers________themselves with marking the students’ papers after the monthly examination.

A．involved　　 B．devoted

C．occupied　 　D．absorbed

Answer 1

 C　考查动词词义辨析。这里指老师们忙于改月考卷子。involve意为“涉及；使参与”；devote意为“致力于”，后跟介词to; occupy意为“占据”，occupy oneself with sth意为“忙于做某事”；absorb意为“吸收；使全神贯注”，常跟介词in。依据语意可知选C。
