All the candidates were ________ the street to be named after a great man ________ his great contributions to the city. [ ] A. in honor of; in favor of B. in praise of; in favor of C. in favor of; in honor of D. in praise of; in need of

我们先看句子逻辑。

句子主干：

All the candidates were ________ the street to be named after a great man ________ his great contributions to the city.

首先，街要以伟人的名字命名，是因为他对此市的伟大贡献，所以第二个空应该是“为了纪念”或“因为”，即 in honor of（为了纪念）。

第一个空是说“所有候选人都________这条街以伟人命名”，此处显然是他们支持这个命名提议，所以是 in favor of（支持）。

选项比对：

A. in honor of; in favor of —— 顺序反了，第二个是 in favor of，逻辑不通。
B. in praise of; in favor of —— “赞美”与“支持”均不符合前后逻辑关系。
C. in favor of; in honor of —— 第一个“支持”，第二个“为了纪念”，正确。
D. in praise of; in need of —— “赞美”与“需要”，不合。

所以正确选项是：

C. in favor of; in honor of
