We should keep it in mind that beneath our feet ______ that our life depends on for food and clothing.
A. lies the earth
B. lying the earth
C. does the earth lie
D. the earth is lying

Answer 1

答案A

试题分析：考查倒装句。本题是把表地点的介词短语beneath our feet放在句首，后面的句子主语是名词the earth，构成完全倒装句。Lie是真正的谓语动词，因为主语是earth，所以使用单数形式。故A正确。
考点：考查倒装句
点评：表示地点的介词短语放在句首的时候，如果后面的主语是名词，要使用部分倒装。本题的关键是主语的词性。
