)207.______ and short of breath,Andy and Ruby were the first to reach
the top of Mount Tai.
A.To be tried B.Tired C.Tiring D.Being tired (浙江)
B
本题考查形容词作伴随状语的用法.我们先来分清tired与tiring的区别:tired表示“感到疲劳的”,用来形容人;tiring表示“令人疲劳的;累人的”,用来形容事情.题干句子的意思为:尽管累得喘不过气来,但是Andy和Ruby是最早到达泰山山顶的人.逗号前是让步状语从句,不过进行了省略,还原后应为:Though they (Andy and Ruby) were tired and short of breath,句子的主语是Andy and Ruby,所以应该用“感到疲劳的”,即要用tired;又由于是与形容词短语short of breath相并列,所以应选形容词tired,不选to be tired或Being tired,答案是B
