题目分析:
本题主要考查了关于代词指代对象的理解。
选项分析:
A选项:由于整个题目中只有一个复数名词,所以代词they只能指代前面的这个复数名词—阿那齐族人(Anasazi)。但实际上,这句话的逻辑意思是:阿那齐族人种了一种植物,这个植物现在应该叫spinach。如果给call添加了发出者阿那齐族人,则其意思变成了:现在阿那齐族人将这个植物叫spinach。这是不正确的。我们根本就不知道这个阿那齐族人现在是否还存在,应该是现在这个植物被叫spinach,而不一定是被阿那齐族人叫spinach。
B选项:本选项错误同(A)。
C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项:本选项用了一个合句的形式来表达两个小句。此时is now commonly called的主语必然是阿那齐族人(Anasazi),在逻辑上,是植物叫spinach,而不是阿那齐族人叫这个名字。
E选项:本选项具有语法错误,which引导的肯定是一个非限制性定语从句,定语从句中必须缺少一个成分来使先行词在从句中充当那个成分。但本选项中which引导的定语从句中不缺少任何成分。
在做SC的时候一定要先搞清楚句子的逻辑意思
choice a,b 中的they指代 ancient Anasazi ,逻辑错误。这些古代人不可能在今天再给植物起一个新的名字。
choice e, which引导的定语从句不缺任何成分,语法错误
now commonly called 直接作为modifier修饰前面的plant
they的指代
they - 完全指代ancient Anasazi, 但ancient anasazi如何在now call a plant?
AB的错误就是逻辑范畴
虽然AB的语法没有错误,但是语义有误,注意比较选项之间的语义
请问E如果去掉it,那么yes正确答案么?
For those who liked E, keep in mind that "which" is a modifier that takes the place of "plant" - essentially "which" is used as a pronoun, so the word "it" is redundant...we're just piling on at that point. You wouldn't say "For Christmas I got a new bike, which it is red". You'd just say "I got a new bike, which is red..."
非其所问也
Yes, it is correct.
