試題分析：句意：吉姆因?yàn)闆]有能通知我計(jì)劃的改變而向我道歉。因?yàn)樵诮樵~之后所以應(yīng)該用動名詞的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)，being able ，它的否定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)應(yīng)是his not being able或him not being able，作賓語這兩種結(jié)構(gòu)都可以用。故選B。
點(diǎn)評：本題難度適中。動名詞的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)是高中階段的重難點(diǎn)之一，考生容易誤選A，not的位置沒有弄清楚，它在doing的之前。
即學(xué)即練：My grandma still treats me like a child. She can’t imagine me _________.
A. grow up             B. grown up
C. growing up           D. to grow up
解析：B。句意：由語境可知“她不能想象我已經(jīng)成年了”，短語形容詞grown up(成年的，成熟的)作賓補(bǔ)。
