考题讲解

题目分析:本题主要考查了关于“平行”的相关用法。

选项分析:

选项A:本选项没有语法错误。分词短语having them decorated by local artists是the Swiss government commissioned several life-size fiberglass cow statues的伴随状语。根据图形背景原则,“瑞士政府授权雕像”和“让当地艺术家来装饰这些雕像”这两件事并不具有时间上的长短关系,因此必须用合句的方式。

选项B:本选项犯了平行错误。平行的三者应该为commission、decorate和set,三者需要在语法上保持一致,即,they were decorated by local artists需改为had them decorated by local artists。

选项C:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

选项D:划线部分身前出现了不定式短语in an attempt to attract more tourists,其主语为主句主语several life-size fiberglass cow statues。在逻辑上,要吸引顾客的是“政府”,而不是雕像。 

选项E:本选项错误同选项(D)。
