几道英语语法题,
1.With the improvement of people's standard of living,cosmetics_____a favorite topic,especially among women.
A.has become B.becomes C become D.have become
但是我觉得A也没错啊,如何区分
2.As far as I'm concerned,education is about learning and more you learn,_____.
A.the more for life are you equipped.B.the more equipped for life you are C.the more life you are equipped for D.you are equipped the more for life.
如何区分B和C答案?equipped 是动词被动式还是形容词?
第二题明白了，但是第一题一楼的has becoming不对吧，没见过这种结构啊，还有has become和becomes 都表示现在的一种状态，那为什么不选A？（标准答案是B）
