中单选题【2016年真题】Among the first passengers of the new high-speed railway between Chengdu and Chongqing with a man was a history as storied as the route: soldier, rail builder, reporter,war correspondent, poet and suspected spy.
A.a man was with
B.was a man with
C.were a man with
D.a man were with
参考答案：B
答案解析：（1）画线部分错误分析。
本句最大的难点就是划分句子结构，即找出句子主干，从而确定谓语动词的正确形式。
这是一个倒装句：主语为a man, with a history ...作主语的定语，is为系动词，位于句首的介词词组among the first ...作主语补足语。本句的正常顺序为A man with ... was among the first…，因此，_线部分with a man was句法结构错误，选项B正确。
（2）选项分析。
因为主句为倒装句（主谓倒装），所以选项A中主语a man与谓语was的位置错误；选项C与D的主语a man与系动词were在数上不一致，属于语法错误，因此只有选项B为正确答案。
