Question

【题目】Next to me______, who was about seventy years old.

A. an old man satB. did an old man sitC. sat an old manD. was an old man sitting

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：挨着我坐着一个老人，大约70岁了。an old man sat一个老人坐；did an old man sit是一个部分倒装的结构；sat an old man坐着一个老人，是完全倒装结构；was an old man sitting一个老人正坐着。Next to me是介词短语，位于句首，应用全部倒装形式，故应选C。
