It is a truth universally ______ that a single and rich man must be in want of a wife.
A.achnowledgingB.achnowledged
C.be achnowledged D.to achnowledge
B

试题分析:考察分词做定语。本句中的it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that引导的主语从句that a single and rich man must be in want of a wife.名词truth与动词achnowledge之间构成被动关系,故使用过去分词表示被动。C项中的be是多余的。句意:这是一个被广泛承认的事实,一个富有的单身男人一定需要一个妻子。故B正确。
点评:当分词做定语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与名词构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做定语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做定语。单独的一个分词做定语要放在名词的前面,分词短语做定语要放在分词的后面。
