高中英语选择题

-----，the idea of having to work under a woman defeated him
A.Wanting the job badly
B.Although wanting the job badly
C.Though he wanted the job very much
D.He wanted the job badly
为什么这题选C，不选B呢？

Answer 1

B没有主语。

Answer 2

A B 项都缺少主语， D项没有关联词 （though, although)

Answer 3

C。√

A idea 不能want
B 无主语
D，两个主语但无连词

Answer 4

本题的解题思路是：
1.判断是从句还是简单句：根据在英语中，逗号不能连接句子，排除D。若此句为简单句，则wanting 应与句子主语构成主动关系，由于此处the idea of having to work under a woman 与wanting不能构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故此处不是简单句，而是Although或Though引导的让步状语从句。
2. Although/Though 为连词，故后面应连接句子。选C。
注意不能选B。
思路： 状语从句从句中省略的情况之一是，从句主语与主句主语一致且有be动词时可把状语从句中的主语与be动词都省略，如：When (it is) compared with whole size of the earth, the largest ocean doesn't seem big at all.
联系此题若B选项对，复原得 Although the idea of having to work under a woman was wanting， 但复原之后的句子在逻辑上明显是错误的，故不能选B。

Answer 5

B选项是省略句，省略句的条件是主句和从句的主语一致，从句中含有be动词这时可以省略从句中的主语和be动词，而B选项的从句和主句主语不一致，不等省略，所以不能选B。
