Question

It is you rather than he that ______ for this terrible accident.

A．is blamed	B．is to blame
C．are to blame	D．should blame

Answer 1

C

试题分析：这题考查固定词组和主谓一致，be to blame“应受责备”，主语是you rather than he，当rather than连接两个主语时，谓语要和前面的主语一致，所以选C。句意是：该为这场可怕的事故负责的是你不是他。选C。
点评：固定词组平时的记忆是否牢，主谓一致要掌握一些语法规则，除了rather than还有as well as ，including，like，together with连接两个主语时要和前面的主语一致。
