这道题有点晕。。。[语意!!!]
⚠️1、whereas不用完全平行2、it的指代问题3、compare to/with前后要平行
A选项:it指代有歧义,就近指代了percent of the energy produced in France
B选项:前后不平行
C选项:✅
D选项:the energy没有定语修饰,被默认为前面的the energy produced in France,造成语意错误
E选项:compared with就近修饰名词nuclear power,,语意错误
the result of questioning a representative group of people cannot be the percentage Roland cites,对一群有代表性的人进行调查的结果不可能是罗兰所引用的百分比。
question,询问,正式提问
CR:90%的人认识一个失业的人,并不代表失业率超过5%了。奥巴马一失业,100%的米国人都认识一个失业者了,然鹅并没有什么卵用。
AB选项:if it were not和instead之间的重复
CE选项:时态有误
much-needed rain,急需的雨
This morning meteorologists are predicting much-needed rain for the corn-growing region starting tomorrow. starting做定语,修饰rain,预测一场明天开始的雨。tomorrow和this morning是两个不同的时间框架,这里似乎用will start更好些。
take physical possession,实质占有,物质占有
去掉插入语分析
charge xxxmoney
先行词price在后面的从句中充当宾语,用that
[修饰、不定式]
A选项:between and修饰了construction✅
B选项:between and修饰了three separate sewer systems,这个系统应该是一直存在的,不可能只维持了一段时间❌
CDE选项:serve表目的,用to do
[including的坑]
including表示子集,但是这边说清楚了一共有三个,已知一个,还有两个。属于全集,所以不能用including 排除BC选项
A选项:破折号前主语是书本(物),破折号后也应该是物,本选项是人❌
D选项:错误同A❌
E选项:✅
[词组辨析]reach for sth:伸手抓某物 reach of sb:在某人能触及到的范围内 这里选用of
[事/物]ABC选项because of和due to后 main跟的都是物,但是这句话的意思是“淘金很容易”的原因是“侵蚀使得金子暴露”这件事,而不是“侵蚀”本身
since后面跟句子表示原因,D选项缺少谓语动词
所以选E
A选项:✅dating是对主语The Acoma and Hopi的描述
B选项:定语从句,which指代surviving Pueblo communities,是一种泛指❌
because of+名词
allow to do 允许
allow that 承认(后面跟情态动词)

choice c,d: with some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar独立主格结构,语意是有问题的。intended meaning想要表达“-一些双胞胎长得很像,另外一些双胞胎不像” 这个现象/事实引起了一个有趣但是经常被忽略的关于双胞胎的特征。因此fact只能作主语,不可能放在独立主格作为修饰主句
having been done,难道不是说被动么。这不对 吧
我也觉得这个having been done的被动不能修饰company
