-Why do you look sad?-There are so many problems____.
A.remaining to settly
B.remained settling
C.remaining to be settled
D.remained to be settled
答
确定有settly这个单词吗?我在牛津英汉词典上查不到,只有settle 意思为解决.如是此单词,为及物动词.remain 是不及物动词,后不接名词等宾语.其后加ing 变成现在分词,来形容problems,意为问题正保持着;正保持着怎样的问题呢?就由 to be settled 来形容 problems remaining ,意即为正有着待解决的问题.settle 是及物动词,后要接名词等作宾语,problems remaining 其实就是它的宾语,而主语是人(人来解决问题吧?),现句中主语忽略了.用 settle
来形容 problems remaining 就必须用被动语态(问题被解决),而用被动语态的要求就是要用 be + 动词的过去分词,即 settle 后加 d 变成 settled .说了这么多,
