选择题
Personally I think it is the sales manager, rather than the sales girls, _______ to blame.
A.is
B.that is
C.are
D.who are
答案
答案:B
rather than与the sales girls形成比较结构,去掉rather than the sales girl旧可以看出宾语从句实际上是一个强调句,被强调的部分是宾语从句中的主语the sales manager,后面的rather than the sales girls也对句子谓语动词形式的选择形成了一定的干扰。考虑到主谓一致的原则,应该选B。
