题目分析:
本题的句式比较散,需要考生细心找到整个句子的谓语动词。
选项分析:
A选项:in its eastward orientation和by its overall plan不平行,两者身前的介词应该均用by。由于这是一个被动语态的句子,所以只有用by才能表示出它们是indicate的逻辑主语。被动语态规定,只有by后才是动作的逻辑主语,例如:
(1) Lunch was eaten by me
(2) **Lunch was eaten in me
句(1)表示,“我”是吃午饭的发出者;句(2)则完全没有此意。
B选项:was indicated的主语A ruined structure found at Aqaba, Jordan, once probably being a church,的核心词有误,本选项中其核心词为a ruined structure。但在逻辑上,被计划和朝向表明的应该是“一个已毁坏的结构是一座教堂”这个事件,而不是“一个已毁坏的结构本身”。
C选项:本选项的主语是一个动名词短语,即,indicating that a ruined structure found at Aqaba, Jordan, was probably a church,这个主语虽然长,但是是单数名词,谓语动词应该也用单数的was,而不是were。
D选项:indicates应该用被动语态,而不是主动语态。这是因为,“一个已毁坏的结构是一座教堂”这个事件肯定是“被”计划和朝向表明的,而不是主动表明了什么。
E选项:Correct. 本选项在逻辑和语法上均是正确的。That a ruined structure found at Aqaba, Jordan, was probably a church是 主语从句。
C选项还是有点不明白
indicating是动名词作主语,后面的that同位语从句修饰indicating,所以谓语动词应该是单数was,而不是were。
而且but also找不到平行
我觉得这是一个倒装句
我也觉得是倒装
不过在GMAT论坛上看到C选项的一个错误的点: If we intend to use ‘but also', then we must also have used ‘not only’ prior to it.
感觉不是but also找不到平行, but also在没有not only的情况下不译为而且, 意思应该偏向转折, 所以不符合题意
