题目解答
答案
B. It being a holiday
解析
本题考查独立主格结构(nominative absolute construction)的知识。解题思路是明确独立主格结构的定义和特点,然后分析句子中各个部分是否符合独立主格结构的特征。
独立主格结构是一种具有自己独立主语的非谓语动词短语结构,通常由“名词/代词 + 非谓语动词(现在分词、过去分词、不定式等)”构成,在句中作状语,用来表示时间、原因、条件、伴随等。
对于句子 “It being a holiday, all the shops were shut”:
- 选项A “all the shops were shut” 是一个完整的句子,有自己的主语 “all the shops” 和谓语 “were shut”,它是句子的主句部分,并非独立主格结构。
- 选项B “It being a holiday” 中,“It” 是独立的主语,“being” 是现在分词,符合独立主格结构 “名词/代词 + 现在分词” 的形式,在句中作原因状语,表示“因为是假日”,所以该选项是独立主格结构。
- 选项C “a holiday” 只是一个名词短语,不具备独立主格结构的完整形式,不能单独作状语,所以不是独立主格结构。
- 选项D “were shut” 是句子的谓语部分,和独立主格结构无关。
