问题 The island of Elephanta was named by the Portuguese, to suppose after a huge statue of an elephant that used to be there.

选项 A、suppose
B、being supposed
C、supposed
D、supposing

答案C

解析 本题重点考查分词短语作状语的用法。画线部分连同后面部分作原因状语,说明取名原因,其逻辑主语需要与主句主语保持统一。此处suppose与after连用应该以过去分词形式出现,表示“据猜测是仿照……”。四个选项中只有B和C表示被动,而B是现在分词的被动式,表示“正在进行中”,不符合句子的语义,主句的谓语动词已经点明时间是过去,故选C。
