问题描述:

[-C32]Tom is good at his work,but he seems to _____ confidence.
A.lack
B.lack of
C.lacking in
D.short of
为什么选A不选C?

seem to do ,要用动词原型。所以要用lack.另外lack是及物动词,要加宾词。 lack in 并没有这个固定搭配。

seem后是要接动词不定式to do 的。选A。lack正是选了动词lack;而C. lacking in 是动名词,不对

lack要么是一个及物动词,表示“缺乏”,后面直接接名词;
要么就当名词使用,常见句型 be lack of 缺乏
seem to do sth固定句型,后面直接接动词原形
所以不管从哪方面讲C一定是错的
如果选B或者D前面要有一个be

seem to do something.看起来怎么样。是加动词原型啊。lack=be lack of。
