Question

To tell you the truth,I think it is you,Tim,_______to blame.

A. more than; who is    B. rather than; that are

C. other than; that is    D. less than; which are

Answer

B

【解析】句意：说实话，我认为是你而不是史密斯先生该受责备。less than少于；rather than 而不是；other than除了；more than 多于，不仅仅。此句还考查了强调句型，that 与前面的it is相呼应。被强调部分you, rather than Mr. Smith是原句中的主语，即原句为：You, rather than Mr. Smith are to blame.当句子的主语部分由rather than, together with, as well as, besides, but, except等连接时，谓语动词由前面的主语决定。
