4._____, Mary went out with delight.
参考答案为:B
A.With her homework doing
B.With her homework done
C.Her homework was done
D.Done her homework
[解析]本题主要考查分词的独立结构。有很多同学做这个句子时可能会选择C,把这个句子看作是一个从句。但是大家要注意的是：如果选择C的话，那么这个句子就有两个单句组成，而这两个单句之间没有连接词，因此不是并列句，也不是复合句，那这个句子就是错误的，因此不能选C。这个句子是with+名词+过去分词独立结构做状语。因为do的动作不是homework发出的，因此用过去分词而不用现在分词，所以选B。
