Question

Difficult as part of the passage was ________, I managed to catch hold of its meaning in the end.

A. understanding   B. to be understood

C. to understand    D. being understood

Answer

C

【解析】

试题分析：句意：尽管文章的部分内容很难理解，但我最后还是想方设法抓住了文章的意思。前部分是(as引导让步状语从句而引起的)倒装，正常语序是although part of the passage was difficult to understand

(=Although it was difficult to understand part of the passage)，其中不定式做主语补足语。故选C。

考点：考查不定式的用法
