Unlike the conviction held by many of her colleagues that genes were relatively simple and static, Barbara McClintock adhered to her own more complicated ideas about how genes might operate, and in 1983, at the age of 81, was awarded a Nobel Prize for her discovery that the genes in corn are capable of moving from one chromosomal site to another.

题目分析:


选项分析:

A选项:本选项具有比较词unlike,其连接的两者为the conviction和Barbara McClintock,此两者显然是不可比的。

B选项:conviction的同位语核心词为genes,在逻辑上,conviction/convince的内容应该是“基因的某种特点”而不是“基因本身”。

C选项:本选项具有比较词contrary to,比较对象对等,但是,many of her colleagues身后的being convinced是其限定性定语,此处的being表示同时性,即,“被劝服”这个事件的发生时间和其主句的发生时间同时。但显然地,本选项中两个事件并非具有严格的同时关系,即,“同事认为基因简单”和“BM认为基因复杂”的时间不一定完全重合,不能用being来强调时间的一致。

D选项:
Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

E选项:
划线部分和未划线部分应该是转折关系,本选项没有体现出转折关系;convinction的同位语核心词错误同(B)。
