考题讲解

题目分析:

略。


选项分析:

选项A:本选项没有谓语动词,covering和accommodating都是现在分词

选项B:首先,由于“大象(elephants)”是个可数名词,所以需要将as much as改成as many as。另外,连词and连接的两个句子主干分别为:
At the turn of the twentieth century, forest accommodated as much as 300,000 elephants
a third of them were domesticated and performing various essential tasks
在逻辑上,两句话并不具有并列关系。a third of them were domesticated and performing various essential tasks在语意上是补充说明300,000 elephants的。

选项C:accommodated as much as 300,000 elephants中as much as需要改成as many as,这个错误选项(B)。

选项D:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

选项E:连词and需要连接两个并列的句子(参考功能平行)。因此,accommodating应改为动词过去式accommodated。
