PASSAGE ONE
What does "it" in Para.4 refer to?
选项
答案
The fact that Mrs.Manson Mingott’s father was mysteriously discredited.
解析
根据题干定位至第四段第二句。该句是一个长难句,必须先分析清楚句子结构才能理解“it”指代的内容。该句主句是“He had always admired the high and mighty old lady”,意为“他一向崇拜这位高高在上的老夫人”,“who”引导的非限制定语从句修饰先行词“the high and mighty old lady”,该从句的主干部分是“who…had allied herself…married two of her daughters…and put the crowning touch…”,而紧跟在“who”后面的“in spite of having been only Catherine Spicer of Staten Island”是让步状语,介词短语“with a father mysteriously discredited,and neither money nor position enough to make people forget it”修饰“Catherine Spicer”,该让步状语意为“尽管她原来不过是斯塔顿岛的凯瑟琳-斯派瑟,有一位由于不为人知的原因而名誉扫地的父亲,无论是金钱还是地位都难以让人们忘记这件事”,“neither money nor position enough to make people forget it”是和“a father mysteriously discredited”并列的结构,由此可知此处“it”指代的是“a father mysteriously discredited”这件事,故答案为“The fact that Mrs. Manson Mingott’s father was mysteriously discredited.”。
