— There are so many problems _____.

C. remained solving	D. remaining to be solved

【考點(diǎn)】考察動(dòng)詞remain的用法

Answer 1

D

動(dòng)詞remain仍然，保持；它的現(xiàn)在分詞remaining可以轉(zhuǎn)換成形容詞，意為“留下，剩下”；單獨(dú)使用時(shí)通常放在所修飾的名詞的前面。如果是一個(gè)短語要放在所修飾的名詞的后面；還構(gòu)成另外一個(gè)固定搭配sth remain to be done某事有待于被做。本句中的形容詞短語remaining to be solved作為定語修飾名詞many problems，意為是一個(gè)短語，所以要放在后面。句義：—怎么了？—還有很多有待于被解決的問題。故D正確。
