题目

19 ._____ for a long time,most of the crops in this area died from lacking water.
　　A.Being no rain B.There was no rain
　　C.To be no rain D.There being no rain
为什么选C?为什么不选A?还有是不是没有D这个句型?

答案

你看错答案了吗?该选D.
夲句考查非谓语动词作状语,There being no rain for a long time=As/Because there was no rain for a long time,.由于两个在句子的主语不统一,因而用独立主格结构.
