题目分析:
本题的主语很容易被误认为是a surge。仔细观察可知,claim的主语不仅是a surge还有and之后的a drop,即,suggest的真正主语为a surge and a drop。另外,很多读者可能会把claims看作动词,从而不理解为什么claims身后还有一个动词suggest。实际上,claims是一个固定用法,unemployment claims指因失业而提出“某人已失业,请求失业救济”,是一种失业救济程序。而new home sales也是一个固定表达,与existing home sales相对应,是指新房销售,existing home sales指的是成品房销售。全句大意是说,新房销售量的上升和周失业救济申请的下降表明经济并没有原来预测的那么糟。
选项分析:
A选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
B选项:a surge and a drop是复数,所以其谓语动词也必须是复数,即,suggest;some analysts have previously thought应该用过去时,而不是现在完成时,这是因为,经济的强弱肯定是和之前分析师认为的相比较,而不是和分析师到现在为止认为的相比较(到现在,分析师应该也能看到新房销售量的上升和周失业救济申请的下降了,自然地,他们也不会继续认为经济疲软。由此可知,只能是经济和之前分析师的预期相比)。
C选项:thought时态错误同(B)。
D选项:本选项没有谓语动词。
E选项:本选项没有谓语动词。
C选项-A surge in new home sales and a drop in weekly unemployment claims suggest
that the economy might not be as weak as have been previously thought by some analysts
that从句还原后the economy might not be as weak as economy have been previously thought by some analysts
have应用has
同意,great job~
这个have thought不是analysts的谓语动词吗?
不是啊 这是done结构
恩恩,知道了
我觉得就算是has也不对吧,因为它只是说analysts之前预测的,单用一般过去时就可以了
good job
反正have是肯定不对的可以排除了
