Much disappointed as he is _______ in the job interview, he still keeps his confidence.
A. to have failed B. failed C. having failed D. failing
答案是A 求解释

Answer 1

A. to have failed

即使他可能因工作面试失败感到很失望，他仍然满怀信心。
A. (is) to have failed 将来完成时，表示预期内将来要发生的事情。
B. (is) failed 失败的话，直接用 fail in ......

C. (is) having failed 无此用法，语法不对
D.(is) failing 语法角度来讲，这是现在进行时，失败这个词，一般不用做现在进行时，正在失败中。。。。不合乎逻辑，可以说正在经受着失败，is sufferring from failure. 这种用法可以，但一般不用 is failing。
