题目分析:
本题考查了考生关于核心词这一概念的理解。
选项分析:
选项A:Contrary to身后是名词+定语从句的结构,因此,整个Contrary to financial analysts, who predicted last year that the market for home computers would dwindle的核心词为financial analysts。但在逻辑上,能和the personal computer industry continued to show strong growth(个人电脑工业具有强劲的增长)具有“相反”的关系的,只能是分析师的预期,而不能是分析师。
选项B:本选项核心词错误(A)。
选项C:和“个人电脑工业具有强劲的增长”相对的是“分析师和预期”。但在逻辑上,只有预期才能和主句相对。
选项D:动名词短语predicting last year that the market for home computers would dwindle需要改为名词短语predictions last year that the market for home computers would dwindle。这点考查了名词和ing的区别的区别,用之于本题,显然地,和“个人电脑工业持续强劲”对比的,是分析师预言的内容,而不是分析师们做出预言这个行为,因此,本选项中“预言”这个动作早已结束,应用名词短语表达。
选项E:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
