问题补充:

A. safely and tiring
B. safety and tiring
C. safe and tiring
D. safe but tired
答案:
A. safely and tiring
B. safety and tiring
C. safe and tiring
(答案→)D. safe but tired
解析:考查形容词用法。本题中的形容词safe和tired是对句子主语the American soldiers进行修饰。因为主语是人,所以使用过去分词转换的形容词tired修饰。Tiring令人疲惫的,是现在分词转换的形容词,通常修饰事物;句意:战争以后,那些美国士兵回到了家乡,安全了但是却很疲惫。故D正确。
