That was a terrible night . The rain was pouring down, _________ thunder and lightning.

A．being accompanied by

B．accompanied by

C．accompanying

D．accompanies

答案

B

解析

试题分析：句意：那是一个可怕的晚上，下着倾盆大雨还伴随着电闪雷鸣。因为整个句子已经有谓语动词was pouring，所以空格处用非谓语动词；这里是The rain与accompany是被动关系，故用过去分词，故选B。
点评：本题难度适中。非谓语动词是高中语法项目的重难点之一，需要考生能够理解该题的语言环境，进而作出正确的判断。会判断非谓语动词与它的逻辑主语之间是什么关系，需要考生掌握非谓语动词的不同形式的用法区别等。这里考生容易误选C。
即学即练：Dinosaurs have completely died out on the earth，never _________ again.
A. to be seen                    B. being seen
C. seen                          D. having been seen
解析：A。考查不定式短语作结果状语的用法。never to be seen again，意为：结果再也没有人见过。
