The most vexing problem faced by researchers exploring wind-powered generation of electricity is achieving a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source that meets demand, but so the flow does not overload electrical grids with sudden voltage increases

how to achieve a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source, a flow that meets demand but does not overload

how to achieve a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source, but a flow that meets demand without overloading

how a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source can be achieved, which meets demand but does not overload

考题讲解

题目分析:

略。

选项分析:

选项A:动名词短语achieving a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source需改为how to achieve a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source,这点考查了不定式和ing的区别。用之于本题,划线部分是主语“问题(vexing problem)”的补语(也可以叫表语)。由于“问题”的内容肯定是一次性事件(调查者遇到的问题,肯定是出现一次的,下次出现,就不再是问题了),而不是某种经常性的属性,所以必须用不定式短语。

选项B:动名词短语achieving a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source错误同选项(A);另外,but是一个连词,它身后是介词短语without overloading  electrical grids with sudden voltage increases。在but身前没有同该介词短语平行的内容。 

选项C:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

选项D:在逻辑上,a flow that meets demand without overloading electrical grids with sudden voltage increases是对于其身前的a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source的修饰。因此,两者之间不能用转折连词but。

选项E:应将表语从句how a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source can be achieved改为不定式短语how to achieve a constant flow of power from an unpredictable natural source,这点考查了不定式和从句的区别。其解释基本同选项(A)。
