Councilors say they have been _______ increase the amount of council tax paid by some of the most deprived residents, following changes to the benefits system.
A. left with no choice but
B. left with no choice but to
C. leaving with no choice but
D. leaving with no choice but to
题目解答
答案
B. left with no choice but to
解析
此题考查的是固定搭配和语法结构。固定搭配 "be left with no choice but to do sth." 意为“除了做某事别无选择”。根据句子结构,主语 "Councilors" 和 "have been" 表明句子使用的是现在完成时态,因此 "be left" 应该是 "have been left"。选项中只有 B 选项符合这个结构。
