Question

Dina, __________for months to find a job as a waitress, finally took a position at a local advertising agency.

     A. struggling       B. struggled        C. having struggled  D. to struggle

Answer 1

C

解析:

考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。該空分詞短語(yǔ)作時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)，其邏輯主語(yǔ)Dina與struggle為主動(dòng)關(guān)系，故排除B項(xiàng)。由句中的finally可知非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞表示的動(dòng)作發(fā)生在句中謂語(yǔ)took a position之前，故用現(xiàn)在分詞的完成主動(dòng)式，即選C項(xiàng)。
