考题讲解

题目分析:在1994年1月一辆油驳船搁浅在Puerto Rico, San Juan的海岸,并且它的75万加仑的货物泄漏到大海中,污染了城市的沙滩。


选项分析:

A选项:leaking是一个伴随状语,其逻辑主语与主句主语一致,即油船,此时字面意思为“油船泄漏了它的货物”;后面的while表示causing和leaking的并列,即油船泄漏货物的同时油船造成了污染。但逻辑上来说,“油船”无法造成污染,只能是“泄漏”这个动作造成污染;且,应该是货物(也就是oil)主动漏到海中,而不是船把油漏到海里。

B选项:with引导的独立主格修饰主句的谓语动词“搁浅”,之后的and身后跟了完整的一句话,表示“污染了沙滩”和“船搁浅”这件事并列,和“漏油”这件事就没关系了。但逻辑上“漏油”和“污染了沙滩”这件事有逻辑关系,即 漏油造成了污染。


C选项:正确。船搁浅和货物泄漏这两件事并列,polluting作为leak的伴随状语

D选项:it主动leak cargo错误同A。leak和pollute单纯并列不合逻辑,应该用伴随状语表达他们之间的逻辑关系。

E选项:they指代了gallons,但应该是cargo污染了海滩(我们不能说一个数学单位发出污染这个动作)。和leak并列错误同D。
