There are so many car moving on the roads that it is impossible to land a flying saucer without ___ smashed by one.

a.it is b.its c.being d.its being

完全看不懂 so混乱 选c干吗不对?its简直多此一举?请高手指教,祥解 谢谢!

There are so many cars moving on the roads that it is impossible to land a flying saucer without its being smashed by one.
路上的车川流不息, 飞碟想降落而不被车撞上, 简直不可能.
选d its being. land a flying saucer "降落飞碟" 的主语是"an alien (外星人)"被省略了. 完整的句子是:
it is impossible for an alien to land a flying saucer without its being smashed by one.
如果去掉"its", 成了:
it is impossible for an alien to land a flying saucer without being smashed by one
会造成"外星人被车撞上"的歧义.

如果问题是:
There are so many cars moving on the roads that it is impossible for a flying saucer to land without ___ smashed by one.
这时候land成了不及物动词, "a flying saucer" 成了主语, 就可以选being了. 选its being 就是真正的多此一举了!
