Question

--– Who should be responsible for the accident?
--– The boss, not the workers. They just carried out the order ________.

A．as told

B．as are told

C．as telling

D．as they told

Answer 1

A

试题分析：句意：——谁应该为此事故负责？——经理，而不是工人们。他们只是按照吩咐执行命令。as told是省略式的方式状语从句（="as" they were /had been told).在时间、地点、方式、让步、比较状语从句中，如果从句主语和主句主句相同，或者从句主语是it时,从句主语和谓语动词的一部分可以省略。选A。
