equally likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as
equally likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are
equally likely that they will exceed the proposed speed limit as
as likely that they will exceed the proposed speed limit as
as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are
题目分析:
本题的意思是:
官方预测说:司机们在新的限速标准下超速的可能性和在现行的限速标准下超速的可能性是相同的。
选项分析:
A选项:equally和as…as…均表示两者相等的含义,但是不能用equally…as…;其次,比较对象有误。在逻辑上,应该比的对象是“司机们将会有的情况”和“司机们现在的情况”,而不是和current one。
B选项:equally错误同(A)。
C选项:equally错误同(A);比较错误同(A);be likely to do为习惯表达,不能用be likely that。此处考查的是“不定式和从句的区别”。用之于本题,likely表示其身后的事情的发生的概率较高,所以应该用不定式to do。
D选项:比较错误同(A);be likely that错误同(C)。
E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
可以说 as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they do the current one 吗?
不可以的。因为如果补do的话,就说明第二个as后面的内容没有“be likely to”这个助动词了。也就是说,比较的对象变为了:司机们未来可能超过限速 和 现在超过限速
但逻辑上应该比较的是:
司机们在为了超过限速的可能 和 现在超过限速的可能

D中的be likely that这个结构错误
且D中的比较对象错误,误比“他们过去标准下会超速”与“现在的标准”比较,而应该是“司机们将会有的情况”和“司机们现在的情况”而不是现在
E中的比较结构还原后为
Traffic safety officials predict that drivers will be as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are likely to exceed the current one
排除ABC
D的asas中间不够平行
E如果不省略应该是 as drivers will be likely to exceed the proposed limit as drivers are likely to exceed the current limit
be likely to do 习惯表达,没有be likely that
不能用equally...as...
首先明确要比较的肯定是“超速这个行为”而不是“超哪个标准”
B、E:“之后司机可能会超速”和“现在司机可能会超速”相比较✔
A、D、C选项:比较为:司机可能超过“现在标准”和“倡议后的标准”❌
——语法——
1.be likely to do✔be likely that❌
2.equall=as...as...
比较题省略形式:as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are(likely to exceed the)the current one.
current one与proposed speed limit对应
be likely to do 习惯表达,没有be likely that
不能用equally...as...
其次,比较对象有误。在逻辑上,应该比的对象是“司机们将会有的情况”和“司机们现在的情况”,而不是和current one。
A as......as B比较对象应该是AB之间的比较,A像B一样....
e选项在比drivers will be和they are,时态不同,动词不能省
比较的是两个动作,所以第二个as后面也应该是一个动作,两个动作时态不同时,动词不可省略
