题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:首先,由于本选项的dated是过去分词(不可能是过去时,因为date理应是被动语态,若是谓语动词的过去时应该用were dated),所以其引导的部分应该同found in Puerto Rico in 1991平行。鉴于此,and dated at 34 million years old身前和身后的逗号是不应该加的(只有三者平行或者两个完整的句子间的and前才应该加逗号)。
B选项:在语法上,代词they没有指代对象;that不能用于引导非限定性定语从句;has been的主语的核心词是Fossils,应该用have been。
C选项:that was found in Puerto Rico in 1991只能修饰单数名词,而其逻辑上的先行词应为fossils;was dated at 34 million years old主谓一致错误同(B)。
D选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。分词短语making the sloth the earliest known mammal on the Greater Antilles Islands是伴随状语。
E选项:was dated at 34 million years old主谓一致错误同(B);主语fossils和谓语动词made之间不应添加逗号,例如:
(1) I play cards.
(2)** I, play cards.
句(2)是错误的,不能用逗号隔开主语和谓语动词。(有时因有插入语导致谓语动词身前有逗号,这不矛盾。因为那个逗号是用来隔开插入语和主句的,不是用来隔开主语和谓语动词的。语法上不允许有目的是为了隔开主语和谓语动词的逗号)
Fossils [of the arm of a sloth] found in Puerto Rico in 1991,注意found定语修饰的对象是fossils!被找到的对象应该是化石,而不是动物,因此E选项主谓一致错误;同时,主语fossils和谓语动词made之间不应添加逗号
