---What caused the party to be put off?---_____________ the invitations. A．Tom delayed sending B．Tom’s delaying sending C．Tom delaying to send D．Tom delayed to send

Answer 1

B

试题分析：考查动名词做主语的用法：问句是：什么导致会议被推迟的？回答应该是主语的内容，回答是省略式，完整的句子是：Tom’s delaying sending caused the party to be put off。Tom’s是逻辑主语，delay后面接动名词，选B。 考点; 考查动名词作主语 点评：做题时要学会分析句子成分，如果缺少主语的话，动词要用动名词做主语，但是有的句子是省略式，考生可以把句子还原再进行判断。
