—Right. ________ a possibility that he will win the first place in the competition.

A．This is            B．It remains         C．There seems       D．That appears

Answer

C

【解析】

试题分析：句意：--多么聪明和勤劳的男孩啊！--是的，似乎有可能他在竞赛中获得第一名。当seem用于there be结构时，其通常的表现形式为There seems to be…，其中的to be可以省略，也可以保留，但以保留为多见。如：

There seems to be something wrong here. 这儿好像有点不大对劲。 这里to be省略了，故选C。

考点：考查固定句型的用法。
