题目分析:
略
选项分析:
A选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。比较对象是this year和last year,即,两个年份。
B选项:rise表达了“上升”的意思,而higher表示更高。在逻辑上,rise的结果一定是“使得某物higher”,因此,rise或higher只能存在一个,higher赘余;
另外,higher…than…是习惯用语,higher…over…是不正确的。
C选项:比较对象不对等。比较两个年份的价格在本题中也是可以的,但是,last year's在than的身前无法找到平行对象,可以改为: this year's heating-oil prices are higher than last year's prices.
D选项:higher…over…习惯用语错误同(B)。
E选项:比较对象错误同(C);expect身后不能用宾语从句,而应该用不定式。这点考查了“不定式和从句的区别”。
老师,E选项it不是形式主语吗?那主语就是that引导的主语从句,为什么不可以用sth is expected呢?
老师回你了吗?所以是考察不定式和从句的区别?表达状态的转换应该用不定式?所以E不对对吗?
1-比较级 adj-er + 应该加than, higher over的说法是错误的,排除 BD排除;
2-C比的是expectation, 今年的期望比去年的期望高,偷换了主语;应该是价格比去年高,错;
3-剩下A和E,考察expect的宾语从句和不定式的区别,表达状态转换用不定式,表达状态稳定用从句,因此这里that从句是不对的,
排除E;
综上选A;

这里面expectation和expected是充当了不同的成分,可以考虑外延和内涵的考点吗?
当然不可以了。
老师,请问一下,这里很明显的应该是this year的价格和last year的价格相比较,怎么可能是年份比较呢?年份比较完全没有任何意义啊。

同问 不应该是价格与价格比较吗?怎么A句中价格和年份比较了?或者说是省略了哪一部分?
同样没有看懂A的解析,为何价格能够和last year进行比较呢?至少也应该说those of last year吧。
对啦。
A的平行结构没看明白,价格怎么能和年份平行呢??
我觉得比较的是今年的石油价格和去年的石油价格,
还有 last year ‘s 不对,就算是比较价格, 因为不是活物,不能用's 。
