He complained to the bookseller that there were several pages( )in the book.


A、

losing


B、

missing


C、

dropping


D、

lacking


【正确答案】:B
【题目解析】:

形容词辨析。表示失踪,缺少missing, lost, gone。句意:John向书商抱怨在字典中少了好几页。用missing表示丢失。在表示消失、丢失的含义时,miss表示主观主动;如果在句子中主语是人及行为者 lose,drop表示主观主动;如果是物体及事件作主语时 lose,drop表示主观被动,此时一般用被动语态。
