选择题
— How about the suggestion Prof. Smith put forward at the meeting last Friday?
— The committee discussed it for hours without a decision _______.
A．taking
B．to take
C．being taken
D．taken
答案
答案：C
题目分析：句意：上个星期五史密斯教授在会议上提出的建议怎么样？委员会讨论了几个小时，但并没有做出决定。without doing sth. 没有做某事。Decision和take之间为动宾关系，所以用被动语态，故选C。
