【题目】As had been expected, Smith wasn’t appointed chairman of the committee, ______ not very popular with its members.
A. considered B. considering C. having considered D. to be considered
在线课程【答案】A
【解析】
考查非谓语动词。句意：正如预料的那样，史密斯没有被任命为委员会主席，因为委员会成员认为他不太受欢迎。Consider的逻辑主语是Smith，它们之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作原因状语，故选A。
