Question

i'm sorry you were not told about ___a dog lying in the gard

Answer 1

正确答案：A.

句意：

你并没有被告知园子里卧有一条狗.

关键信息：

①省略了that的宾语从句中,谓语动词是【 were not told about】,其中about是介词,后面需要接名词、代词、或v-ing作宾语.

②按照语义,后面应是固定句型结构There be；在介词about后面,be动词需变为being,因此就是正确答案【there being】了.

总结：所考知识点是——介词about与there be 句型连接时所构成的完整搭配变换形式.
