求高手帮我解答一道英语选择题!
Those who were born in comfort could hardly bear such great hardships,()
A.were they B.weren't theyC.could theyD.couldn't they
为什么选C?

这句话的主句是 Those could hardly bear ...
who 引导的是修饰人的定语从句.
所以助动词用could
排除A,B
而hardly为否定概念的副词,所以主句算否定句.
所以反义疑问句用肯定形式,could
而those 的代词形式用 they,
所以选 could they,答案 C
