... Most black holes are unseen but astronomers infer their presence by observing objects surrounding or passing them.  Snared by the black hole's gravity, matters nearby swirl faster, looking like a form of a whirlpool.  A star passing by is often discovered torn apart as it is drawn by a certain power, in the process of __X___ the star accelerates its passing speed in order to get rid of the effect of that power.  The growth of a new star near a black hole is also found _____ it - some are spurred while some are blocked.  Now, with certain equipment astronomers have made sure that these holes give off X-rays and extreme heat.  In short, the power of black holes is beyond imagination. 

(A) influences         (B) influenced        (C) influencing       (D) influenced by

這題答案是 (D)。    (翰林 學測大模王 p. 25)

這題的重點是[ 受詞補語 ]：

1.     [ The growth of a new star near a black hole is also found _____ it ]，這個句子的[it]是指[ the effect of that power ]。它是被動態的句子，可以將它改寫成主動態的句子 -

       We(The astronomers) find the growth of a new star near a black hole ____ it. 

       find + 受詞 + 受詞補語

       因為[ the growth of a new star near a black hole ]是被[ the effect of that power ]影響，所以受詞補語是被動態[ p.p + by ]。

所以主動態的句子 -

       We(The astronomers) find the growth of a new star near a black hole influenced by it.
