问题 ______, a man who expresses himself effectively is sure to succeed more rapidly than a man whose command of language is poor.
选项 A、Other things being equal
B、Were other things equal
C、To be equal to other things
D、Other things to be equal
答案A
解析 从句子结构可以看出，本句的前面部分是表示条件的状语，other things being equal是一个分词独立结构，可以作条件状语，例如：Other things being equal，a shorter state—ment is preferred．其他条件相同的情况下，优先选用较短的陈述。除在极个别的情况下，分词做状语时，应与句子的主语存在一定的逻辑关系(主谓或动宾关系)，否则该分词就应该有自己的逻辑主语或逻辑宾语来构成“名词或代词+分词”结构，即独立分词结构，独立分词结构一般可置于句首，也可置于句末；用来表示原因、时间、条件、方式或伴随情况等，例如：The experiment being over，the students began their discussion．做完实验，学生们开始讨论。Silver is the best conductor，copper following behind．银是最好的导体，铜次之。Were other things equal是虚拟语气条件从句，而后面的句子是陈述语气，To beequal to other things是不定式，可以作目的状语，但不能作条件状语，Other things to beequal这样的结构不存在，因此，正确答案是A。
