The key is B,.

谁能帮忙分析一下句子结构, "in spite of recurrent injuries,"和 always hoping to return 分别是什么成分啊

你的意思是句子主干是

bill walton always hoping to return to his position as a regular starter in the game he loved

可是这句里动词时态不对啊

句子主干是:

Bill Walton continued playing.
    

The other two parts are just two clauses to modify Bill.

走眼

It happens. I am a little bit more lucky than you this time only.

弱弱的问一句，有continue doing的用法么？怎么好像一般看到的都是continue to do？结果我二话没说就直接写了E了~

continue to do sth 指做完一件后接着做另外一件事，

continue doing sth 指被打断后接着这做同一件事

...应该是这样理解的吧？
