Question

The book,(meaning) for my elder sister as a birthday present,was lost on my way home.

A.meaning B.being meaning
Cmeant D.was meant
答案是A，其他三个为什不能用？

Answer 1

首先你要知道这是一个句子，其次分析句子的主，谓，宾：The book，was（ lost），on my way home.。"(meaning) for my elder sister as a birthday present"充当定语,如果用定语从句的话应该是：which is meaning for......,此局是把which is 给省掉了而已。
mean可为名词也可为动词，meant是mean的过去式和过去分词。
