问题 选择题

Some high officers were punished by law only because they were _______ what didn’t belong to them.

A.possessing

B.possessed

C.in possession of

D.in the possession of

答案

答案:C

题目分析:考查possess用法。因为横线前面有were,A项的过去进行时与句意不相符。B项的中的被动语态的形式也是错误的。In possession of sth占有某物;In the possession of sb被某人占有。句意:很多高级官员都法律惩罚仅仅是因为他们占有了不属于他们的东西。故C正确。

点评:possess表示占有;其名词为possession。构成固定词组In possession of sth占有某物;In the possession of sb被某人占有。
