题目分析:
本题的主干信息为:
Both the Federal Reserve's decision and investors' speculation helped to bolster the dollar.
选项分析:
选项A:首先,宾语从句that borrowing rates be raised(decision显然是动词decide的名词化结果,所以,逻辑上,这个从句是decide的宾语)应改为不定式短语to raise borrowing rates,这点考查了不定式和从句的区别。用之于本题,由于decide的约束力较强,所以必须用不定式短语。另外,平行触发语both应该搭配and,不能搭配along with。
选项B:宾语从句应改为不定式错误同(A);另外,speculation身后的结构为of possibly another increase on the way,该定语(同(A)解释,应该是逻辑宾语)的核心词为increase。其应该改为宾语从句that another increase might be on the way,这个从句的核心词为be on the way这个状态。显然地,推断(speculation)的内容应该是“上升正在来的路上”这一状态,而不是“上升”是本身。
选项C:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
选项D:both…and…习惯搭配错误同选项(A)。由于make deposits more attractive的发出者是decision和speculation,所以代词it应改为复数代词they。
选项E:另外,speculation身后的结构为of possibly another increase on the way的核心词错误同(B)。
They 指代谁很模糊,这个GMAT经常考,代指的问题
spectuation 是指整个clause
