问题 ______the financial means to remain independent, Thomas Edison was compelled to seek employment as a night telegraph operator.

选项 A、He was deprived of
B、Deprived of
C、That he was deprived of
D、Although he was deprived of

答案B

解析 过去分词。A项逗号前后两个独立完整的句子,但缺少连词,不合乎语法,排除;D项相较于A项,虽补足了连词,但主从句关系把握错误,并非让步,而是因果,亦排除;C项that连接的是名词性从句或定语从句,不符合本句。Deprive的用法是sb.be deprived of sth.,此句中其主语与句子主语Thomas Edison一致,可省略,主语与deprive是被动关系,故使用过去分词。
