略
选项分析:
选项A:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
选项B:when placing them with others of their species是伴随状语,其主语必为主句的主语,即,蝗虫(they)。在逻辑上,放置蝗虫的不能是蝗虫本身。
选项C:when placed with others of their species身前出现了名词locusts,在划线部分身后又出现了完整句子they become excited, change color, vibrate, and even hum,这造成了同一个句子有两个主语的情况。
选项D:分词短语placing them with others of their species是伴随状语,其逻辑主语错误同选项(B)。
选项E:伴随状语placed with others of their species和其主句placed with others of their species之前不能出现副词then,只有if可以和then连接。
E:代词指代包括名词前面所有的修饰语,这里they指代single locusts,placed伴随状语,逻辑主语还是这个single locusts。
A is NOT "less concise"; it's actually necessary, to specify that we're now discussing the behavior of locusts in general, not single locusts.
E,表示单个的蝗虫很兴奋。应该是单个的蝗虫和其他的蝗虫一起都很兴奋。所以第二句引入新的主语“locusts“比沿用第一句的主语”single locusts“要好。
when placing them with others of their species, then,主语是locust,locust不能主动placing locust
E then多余,过去分词已经表示了when引导状语从句一样的时间概念;they和their完全指代single locusts,不优
这里是要强调蝗虫群一起嗡嗡嗡,一起很兴奋,而不是单个的蝗虫放进群里以后,他自己变得很兴奋,开始嗡嗡嗡。所以they指代locusts会更好。
locust n. 蝗虫。 locusts是复数形式。愣是没明白为什么 single + plural noun, 而且谓语动词还是复数. single做形容词解释为“单一的”,修饰的名词一定以单数形式出现。e.g.: Every single house in town had been damaged
The original subject is "single locusts".
The second part of the sentence doesn't describe single locusts. The subject of choice E is still "single locusts", so E is nonsense.
The appearance of "locusts" in choice A is NOT "less concise"; it's actually necessary, to specify that we're now discussing the behavior of locusts in general, not single locusts.
D: 划线部分后面的they就没有合适的指代对象了
e: they 完全指代single locusts,这不合逻辑
then 是副词,不是连词,不能连接两个句子。
老师绝壁想说的是只有 IF 和 WHEN 可以连接。笔误了吧
but 是连词,连接两个分句。
选项E:伴随状语placed with others of their species和其主句placed with others of their species之前不能出现副词then,只有if可以和then连接。
A选项两个locusts没有赘余的问题吗?
状语从句的主语和主句的主语相同,多正常的情况啊。
这两个locusts是分别在but连接的两个分句里面吧?第二个locusts是在第二个分句的状语里。
是啊,but是连词,它身后的句子也是完整的复合句啊~还是状语和主句的关系嘛
