The computer company registered a $16 million net loss for the year, largely because it was profitable only overseas, where much of their profits were used for paying higher taxes, while continuing to lose money in North America.
where much of their profits were used for paying higher taxes, while continuing
where much of their profits went to pay higher taxes, as they continued
where much of its profit went to pay higher taxes, while it continued
with much of their profits going to pay higher taxes, while continuing
with much of the profit used for paying higher taxes, as it continued
B:指代错误,应用its and it
C:无误
E:这个时候要去判断with much···想要修饰的是主句还是临近的名词overseas?→应该是修overseas,如果修主句,那with也放得太后面了,应该放到company前面更合适。其次as和because都是从属连接词,连续两个由从属连接词引导的从句应该要有并列连接词,如FANBOYS,所以E错误。
RON ("Used for __ing" is more indirect. E.g., My father uses this chair for watching television, but my father uses his eyes to watch television.)
But the usage does not make sense, because the non-underlined part talks about losses, and the with part talks about the usage of profit. ( it shouldn't serve as a modifier to the non-underlined part since there is no logical relationship there)
where 定语从句修饰overseas,在海外付了更高的税。
2-D和E均是独立主格结构,跟oversea之间没有直接语意的关系,作状语,排除D和E
选C
这种拟人化的用法很常见咯~例如:我的钱都跑去股市里了(钱也不是自己跑的嘛)。
这个where是修饰什么的呢?看起来是oversea,但是句意就不对了,求解释
根据 Ron的回复,where是修饰oversea:"Where" is not restricted to describing nouns. "Overseas" refers to a physical location, so you're fine here. (The correct answer is C.)登录 或 注册 后可以参加讨论
