B选项:划线部分身后的同位语从句that the bank's loans will help foreign producers compete with American businesses应该修饰的对象是concern,即,是担心贷款帮助了外国的商业。因此,该同位语从句应直接放在concern身后,不能放在passage身后。
D选项:an obstacle to congressional passage变成了the concern的同位语。但显然地,concern并非本身就是an obstacle,而是美国立法者将concern声明为一个障碍,即,obstacle必须作为宾语的补足语。
idioms: ability to do, have capability of doing 就算记错 平行标志前后绝对平行
defuse 缓和 平息 with是带有,随着,句意是通过什么方式缓和了一个紧张地局势,强调的是完成动作的方式
先看懂句意再看选项
in spite of 和despite (despite作为介词后面只能加名词或者代名词)B.D 排除因为我是把restricted当做主句主语 那which引导的定语从句就缺谓语 (定从里面插入状从,定从缺谓语)

2. 像中文中的顿号“、”英文中的逗号“,”一样,表示并列,有时候并列的几个东西很长,或者自带的修饰成分过多,相比于逗号,分号可以更明确地把要并列的几项隔开。在这个选项中,这个分号的出现并不合理,其后面不是完整句子,也没有并列关系。
忽略整体结构
(A) as the former chair… for 18 consecutive years不符合逻辑,而且主语谓语是attended…,如果是former chair,attended…也是不符合逻辑的。
(B) former用错,原因与A选项相同。
(C) 缺少冠词a或the。
(D) 两个句子连接不当,缺少连词;chair前面缺少冠词。
(E) 正确。
The alternative to constructivism, in other words, is to view technology as existing outside society, capable of directly influencing skills and work organization.
错选E: technology can be a primary determinant of social and managerial organization. Clark believes this possibility has been obscured by the recent sociological fashion,
是决定social and managerial organization,不是business
选项A 后面已经说到JP连续当了18年的planning board的主席,前面不需要再提示前任
选项B (the former chair of the planning board and a board member),Joan Philkill attended more than 400 meetings and reviewed more than 700 rezoning applications. 前面的括号中成分变成主语,一个句子对个主语,错误;
同理排除C
选项D 两个完整句子没有连接词错误
选项E 正确 As (the chair of the planning board) for 18 consecutive years and (a board member) for 28 years,Joan Philkill attended more than 400 meetings and reviewed more than 700 rezoning applications.
The constructivists gain acceptance by misrepresenting technological determinism
考点:平行
A having been ....or having been...结构平行,正确
B or前后不平行
C as多余,or前后不平行
D 不平行
E 不平行
立方根公公式要背的,楼上 :P
本题讲的是“没有被预见到的天气条件”,而不是“那些不具备可预见性的天气”(可能是一些神奇的气象条件,类似于刚才例子里的电子书),因此本选项是不正确的。
C头重脚轻
(A) either… or…连接的对象不对称;it错误地指代temperature,不符合逻辑。
(B) either… or…连接的对象不对称;it错误地指代temperature,不符合逻辑。
(C) either… or…连接的对象不对称,accompanied 应该置于either前面;when… is increased, the increase两次increase的重复使句子变得啰嗦,没有必要用when引导状语从句。
(D) either… or…连接的对象不对称,accompanied 应该置于either前面;it错误地指代increase,应该指代
function as sth.,起...的作用,作为,充当
function as teeth --> they work as an acceptable substitute for teeth
function as teeth do --> they work in the same way as teeth do - same mechanics, same action, etc. this is not what is meant.
