Although ____ instant critical acclaim in 1952, he never completed a second novel, publishing many short works instead.

b)      First received by R E, the novel Invisible Man was

c)    R E’s first novel, Invisible Man, received

d)     R E’s first novel, Invisible Man was received

四个选项中怎么感觉3和4都可以呢？

斑竹大大，我这个题这样发应该算合乎发贴要求吧。谢谢！

这两种形式都表示被动，但是在although引导的从句中was received做谓语啊，就这个句子而言如果选择第三个那不是没有谓语了？？

顺便问一句，这题答案是选最后一个吗？

问题问的不错，received 本身就是谓语，倒是用was received 感觉没必要。

我选C

答案是C，在语法大全里有说这题，但较简单。我想主要意思是这里直接用received来做谓语。不过我还是觉得was received 也不错，那位知道真正错在那里吗？多谢晒！
