Combining enormous physical strength with higher intelligence, the Neanderthals appear as equipped for facing any obstacle the environment could put in their path, but their relatively sudden disappearance during the Paleolithic era indicates that an inability to adapt to some environmental change led to their extinction.
appear as equipped for facing any obstacle the environment could put in their path,
appear to have been equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their path,
appear as equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their paths,
appeared as equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their paths,
appeared to have been equipped for facing any obstacle the environment could put in their path,
题目分析:
本题会告诉我们,为什么英语习语中用appear to do,而不是appear as。
选项分析:
A选项:appear as equipped应改为appear to have been equipped。实际上,appear as和appear to do的意思是不同的。appear as的意思是:以...出现,例如:
He appeared as an armyman in the negotiation room.
该例句的意思是,他以军人的身份出现在谈判桌上。appear to do的意思是:看起来像,例如:
He appeared to have the same idea as I had.
该例句的意思是,他看起来有和我相同的想法。简单来说,appear as X中的X表示的是已经实际存在的东西,而appear to X中的X则表示不一定实际存在的东西。在本题的语境中,显然地,由于 the Neanderthals实际上并没有准备好应对变化,所以必须用appear to have been equipped。
介词短语for facing any obstacle应改为不定式短语to face any obstacle。这点考查了不定式和ing的区别。用之于本题,正常语序为:
X equipped the Neanderthals to face any obstacle.
划线部分是句子的宾语的补足语。由于本题中equip的约束力较强,所以必须用不定式的形式。
B选项:Correct.本选项在逻辑和语法上均是正确的。
C选项:equipped错误同(A)。
D选项:equipped错误同(A);appear不应该用过去时。其在本质上应和未划线部分的动词indicates平行,表明两个事实,而不仅仅是过去发生的事情。
E选项:appear的错误同(D);for facing any obstacle错误同(A)。
简单来说,appear as X中的X表示的是已经实际存在的东西,而appear to X中的X则表示不一定实际存在的东西。在本题的语境中,显然地,由于 the Neanderthals实际上并没有准备好应对变化,所以必须用appear to have been equipped。
appear as X中的X表示的是已经实际存在的东西,以X出现,而appear to X中的X则表示不一定实际存在的东西,看起来像X。
A选项:appear as equipped应改为appear to have been equipped。实际上,appear as和appear to do的意思是不同的。appear as的意思是:以...出现;for facing any obstacle应改为不定式短语to face any obstacle;
B选项:appear to have been equipped表示过去;
C选项:as equipped不表示似乎,看起来像;时态过去时;path单数
D选项:同C;
E选项:for facing改成to face
some environmental change led to their extinction
led to their extinction 做定语修饰 change,感觉少了“which”?
请老师解答。
主干是:an inability led to their extinction.
appear as + 名词 以...身份出现
appear to do 看起来像
equip to do

appear to do的意思是:看起来像
and前后动词的时态保持一致
我记得我以前在哪里看到过 to have been 的用法,它不仅仅是用在具体的时态逻辑关系上,有些时候为了区别一个动作是发生在另一个动作之前,为了不产生歧义的一种固定用法,我再找找,找到了发上来。
(1) "appear as ADJ" is unidiomatic; the correct version is "appear to be ADJ", or, if someone/something was ADJ in the past, "appear to have been ADJ".
that gets you down to (b) and (e).
(2) "equipped for VERBing" is unidiomatic; the correct version is "equipped to VERB".
that gets you to the correct answer.
额,BC不是appear的错误吗?equipped这里用的是to do形式啊
appear as和appear to do的意思是不同的。appear as的意思是:以...出现,appear as X中的X表示的是已经实际存在的东西,而appear to X中的X则表示不一定实际存在的东西。
并且appear to是现在时的语态,因为看起来好像是一般性描述,不是过去看起来是,现在不产生影响的意思。
appear to 看起来好像
C: "As quipped" does not indicate that Neanderthals appeared this way in the past; while individual Neanderthals may well have followed different paths, this sentence is about the single evolutionary path taken by Neanderthals as a species. (From OG)
觉得用了虚拟
请问下如果appear的主语是 Neanderthals 的话为什么时态不能用过去时? 不是他们在过去的时间表现出来的一种状态吗?
mark appear as 和 to 的区别
appear to do 看上去XXXX,实际没有
appear as 以 XXX身份
毕老师,a中的for facing不应该是状语吗?看到您说的正常语序为:X equipped the Neanderthals to face any obstacle. 似乎是一个被动语态的还原。可在a中我并没有看到被动语态,只看到了svc结构加一个状语。我的理解出了什么问题呢?
错选A。appear to do和appear as的区别
老师C,E的paths有问题吗?前面是their 为什么要用单数呢?
path在这里没有问题的,描述的是一个群体共有的情况。their后面可以接名词单数和复数,根据intended meaning判断
