一道英语单选A thief who broke into a church was caught because tra
3个回答

可以通过分析句子结构来确定答案:A thief who broke into a church was caught 是主句,后面是一个because引导的原因状语从句traces of wax是从句的主语,found on his clothes是过去分词短语作它的定语,used only in churches是过去分词短语作the sort of candles的定语,显然from前面缺乏本句的谓语动词,四个选项中能作谓语动词的只有A、C,根据对主从句两个动作发生的先后顺序分析,身上先沾上蜡,才导致后来被抓,由此敲定答案为A.
