Question

“Nowhere else_______ a greater talent for innovation than in Internet-based businesses”, said the report.

A. are Chinese businessmen shown

B. Chinese businessmen have shown

C. have Chinese businessmen shown

D. Chinese businessmen have been shown

Answer

C

【解析】

试题分析：考查倒装句和时态。Nowhere else是否定词，位于句子开头，句子用部分倒装，故排除B、D；根据句意“中国商人已经展示出更大的创新天才”可知句子用现在完成时态，故选C。

【学法指导】

含有否定意义的副词位于句首时的倒装：

在正式文体中，never, seldom, rarely, little, hardly, scarcely, no sooner, no longer, nowhere等含有否定意义的副词若位于句首，则其后要用部分倒装：

如：I shall never forgive him./ Never shall I forgive him. 我永远不会宽恕他。

注：(1)对于not…until句型，当not until…位于句首时，其后的主句要用倒装语序：

如：He didn't leave the room until the rain stopped./Not until the rain stopped did he leave the room. 雨停了之后他才离开这房间。

考点：考查倒装句和时态
