Along the major rivers that traverse the deserts of northeast Africa, the Middle East, and northwest India, the combination of a reliable supply of water and good growing conditions both encouraged farming traditions that, in places, endure in at least 6,000 years.
good growing conditions both encouraged farming traditions that, in places, endure in
good growing conditions encouraged farming traditions that have, in places, endured for
of good growing conditions have encouraged farming traditions that, in places, endured for
of good growing conditions both encouraged farming traditions that have, in places, endured
of good growing conditions encouraged farming traditions that have, in places, been enduring for
题目分析:
由于语法结构不同,所以在(A)(B)中,具有and关系的两者为water和good growing conditions;在(C)(D)(E)中,具有and关系的两者为a reliable supply of water和good growing conditions。在逻辑上,具有and关系的两者应该保持对等。显然地,“水”和“好的生长条件”在逻辑上是对等的,因此可以排除(C)(D)(E)。此外,(A)中的both没有必要加入,可以排除,答案为(B)。
选项分析:
略
the combination of a reliable supply of water and of good growing conditions表示”水和良好的种植条件的可靠供应,(鼓励了农业传统)“,supply water的意思是供水,一般指人为供水;好的种植条件则更倾向于指包含自然提供的生长条件,比如河流泛滥提供富含有机质的淤泥,因此不说良好的种植条件的供应,改成“水的可靠供应和良好的种植条件,(鼓励了农业传统)”。
endure:忍耐,如:endure sth/doing sth,忍受某事;持续,如:Sth endure for sometime,某事持续。
本题tradition endure for 6000 years,表示传统持续了6000年,endure已经有持续的意思,不再用have been enduring表示从过去到现在到未来一直进行。
如选择CDE、语法上会造成混乱,是与combination平行还是与supply平行;句意上,是水的供给与好的生长条件的组合(一个组合),而非水的组合和生长条件的组合(两个组合),所以可以排除CDE。
如前述,一个组合当然不可能使用both,排除A
B correct
——句意——
the combination of a reliable supply of [water] and [good growing conditions] ”水“和“良好的生长环境”✔
the combination of [a reliable supply of water] and of [good growing conditions] ”水的充足供应“和”良好的生长环境“❌
Combination of xx and xxx, 所以加了of也不会产生与combine平行的歧义,而是产生了和supply平行的歧义,而“良好生产环境的供应”是不合理的说法。
加了of会产生与supply的歧义
考查多个平行时,要回归句意!不要想当然!!!
注意意思!
both 和 combination 是redundancy,have endured是表示持续到现在的,并且和traverse的时态相同
Combination of xx and xxx, 所以加了of也不会产生与combine平行的歧义,而是产生了和supply平行的歧义,而“良好生产环境的供应”是不合理的说法。
考察句意,不要想当然,惯性选择
the combination of A and B
the combination of A and B, 而不是the combination of sth of A and B
C and E: the combination OF a reliable supply and OF good growing conditions
Here, the latter of seems to imply that there are two distinct combinations:
the combination OF a reliable supply AND the combination OF good growing conditions
Not the intended meaning.
The required idiom is a combination of X and Y.
Eliminate C and E.
in at least 6,000 years.用完成语态
the combination of A and B, 而不是the combination of sth of A and B, 这个结构里combination的对象只有sth这一个东西,只有2个或以上东西才可以叫combination
关于both:
both可以做代词/连词/副词,
代词:both of them;I like them both, both做代词同位them
连词:both A and B
副词:We were both tired.
本题,the combination of A and B both do sth,主语是combination这一个东西,没法both
sth endure,持续,已经表示一直在进行的意思,不用have been enduring表示一直进行
water和goodgrowing condition并列
endure是忍耐的意思,若e就是被忍耐了
the combination of A+B (CANNOT OF A AND OF B)
个人感觉,一方面,应该是a reliable supply of water和good growing conditions并列。the combination of 后面肯定有两个事物A和B,如果water和good growing conditions并列,那么,the combination of 后面就只有一个事物 a reliable supply,这样讲不通;另外a reliable supply of conditions逻辑上也似乎讲不通。 另一方面,就of。。。and结构而言,sth of A and B没问题,但sth of A and of B 似乎说不通,而用sth of A and that/those of B可能更合适

the combination of A and B 一定要有A和B两者存在,不能只有一个A endure本身就有持续性的意思,不需要用enduring
