D．as they told

Answer 1

C

試題分析：本題是考查狀語從句的省略的問題。根據(jù)句意可知，應該是被告知的。排除A，當狀語從句主語和主句的主語一致，并且狀語從句的有個be動詞時，可以將狀語從句的主語和be動詞同時省略，故選C。即as told.  they are 可以省略。
點評：本題重在理解主語從句中有關省略的問題。不管是時間、條件還是讓步狀語從句，都從在這個省略現(xiàn)象，平時做題的過重要能一眼識別出來。如：When (they were) asked how to study English, they said they learned it by working with a group.
