_______ a precious diamond necklace for his wife, Martin could hardly afford a tie for himself． A．Having bought B．Buying C．Being bought D．To buy

Answer 1

A

试题分析：考查现在分词的完成式做状语，句意：买了个珍贵的钻石项链给他的妻子后，马丁几乎不能给自己买得起一个领带，说明是先给妻子买了戒指后才买不起领带的，用现在分词的完成式做状语。选A。 点评：分词做状语的时候，如果动词与名词构成主动关系，就使用现在分词的形式；如果二者构成被动关系就使用过去分词的形式。如果从句的动作先于主句的动作，要用现在分词的完成式
