题目分析:
本题比较简单,甚至可以用基础语法点解决四个选项。
选项分析:
A选项:划线部分主谓不一致。have not risen的主语是the proportion of judges and partners at major law firms who are women,该主语的核心词是单数名词proportion。因此,应把have改为has。
B选项:主谓不一致错误同(A);另外,women放在judges身前属于名词作定语的情况,该定语只能修饰身后的一个名词,本题中即judges,而不能再修饰partners。我们可以用多个形容词来修饰一个名词,但不可以用一个形容词修饰多个名词,如果需要,则需重复该形容词,例如:
beautiful gifts and pens (意为:漂亮的礼物和钢笔,钢笔是否漂亮不知道)
beautiful gifts and beautiful pens (意为:漂亮的礼物和漂亮的钢笔)
这和选项(A)不同,(A)中的who are women是后置定语从句,在原则上可以修饰前面出现过的任何复数名词,所以它可以修饰judges and partners at major law firms这整个的词组。因此,我们可以认为,本选项中的partners相比于(A)少了women这个限定性定语。在逻辑上,显然本句中所指的法官和合伙人都应该是女性。
C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项:yet是连词,其造成了整个句子没有主句;women部分错误同(B)。
E选项:yet部分错误同(D)。
我们可以用多个形容词来修饰一个名词,但不可以用一个形容词修饰多个名词
the proportion of judges and partners HAS
despite和yet也不应该同时出现吧
risen to a comparable extent和risen comparably有区别吗,会有redundant的问题吗,
