Question

【题目】It’s a pity that now in some areas, the rich are becoming richer, and ______.

A. the poor the poor B. poor poor C. the poor poorer D. poor the poorer

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】句意：遗憾的是现在有些地区，富人们越来越富，穷人越来越穷。the+形容词，表示一类的人，the rich富人们，the poor穷人们，根据the rich are becoming richer,可知此处用形容词的比较级，此处the poor are becoming poorer中谓语are becoming与前半句重复，因此省略，故选C。
