Question

Though _______ money, his parents managed to send him to university.

A. lacked     B. is lacking of

C. lacking     D. lacked in

Answer

C

【解析】试题分析：考查lack的用法。Lack vt. 缺乏 He lacks courage. 他缺乏勇气。lack vi. 缺乏;She is lacking in courage。她缺乏勇气。lack后接of时是名词词性: There is no lack of vegetable. 蔬菜不缺be lacking in sth 是固定搭配，多是用现在分词的形式，即做形容词用。例如：he's lacking in experience.他经验不足。句意：虽然缺钱,但是他的父母成功的送他上大学。故选C

考点：考查lack的用法。
