Question

On the contrary, I think it is Truman, ______ you, ______ to blame.

A. more than; are B. less than; who are

C. rather than; that is D. rather than; is

 

Answer 1

C

【解析】考查介词短语、强调句和主谓一致。more than：超过；不仅仅；非常。less than：少于。rather than：而不是。该句句意：“恰恰相反，我认为是Truman‘而不是’你该受责备。”且该句宾语从句是一个强调句，强调从句的主语“Truman,rather than you,”故强调部分后使用连词that，又因为由rather than连接的并列主语，谓语的单复和前者保持一致，故第二空应为that is，所以该题正确答案为C.
