题目分析:
本题中我们可以发现平行制造者and,其所连接的内容需要在逻辑上和语形上均保持一致。
选项分析:
A选项:由于date的主语是复数(rock samples),所以应改为have been dated(and身后的be动词同理)。
另外,be dated to be是错误的,只能用be dated to或be dated at。看起来是在考查语法,实则不然,这背后是在考查考生的逻辑推理能力。将date换为主动语态则有:
X dated samples to be 3.47 billion years old.
借用不定式和名词的区别可知,我们需要根据谓语动词date的约束力来判断宾语的补足语是否应该用不定式的形式。显然地,样本是否是3.47bilion这么大年岁,和人类是否追溯这个样本约束关系(你是否勘查这个样本,人家样本都是那么大岁数。当然,如果是你蓄意的编造这个样本的年龄,那就是另外一个故事了)。因此,不能用不定式短语to be 3.47 billion years old。
B选项:并列连词and必须连接两个句子,后半句缺少谓语动词。
C选项:be dated to be错误同(A)。
D选项:and连接两者错误同(B)。
E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
be dated to或be dated at+n。
dated 不能用不定式(因为描述的是一个客观的东西)
date to/at
date at X old; date to X ago
dated at.....years old 一个特定的时间点
sth be dated at +某一个时间点或某个年龄,东西的年龄/历史不是因为被追溯才有的,不用to
date的主语是复数(rock samples)
sth be dated at +某一个时间点或某个年龄,东西的年龄/历史不是因为被追溯才有的,不用to
at 通常接小地点或表示某一特定的时间,如:
at 3 o’clock (在3点)
at 10:30am (在上午10点30分)
at noon (在中午)
at bedtime (在夜间)
at sunset/at sunrise (在日落/日出时)
at the moment (在那瞬间)
被追溯+at表示追溯到某一个特定的时间点。
be dated to/at 中to是介词 非不定式标志
be dated to at 或者be dated to!
被动语态的句子还原为主动语态看成分;to do的用法
Date to ... ago
Date at ... old
be dated to be是错误的,只能用be dated to或be dated at+n。
又犯了只看前半句不看后半句的错误
之前背过这个语法,be dated to/at,完全记不住。还是靠构句法靠谱点。
主语是rock sample
be dated to be是错误的,只能用be dated to或be dated at。看起来是在考查语法,实则不然,这背后是在考查考生的逻辑推理能力。将date换为主动语态则有:
只能用be dated to或be dated at
选项C具有一定的迷惑性。
"be dated to" or "be dated at"
(be) dated to be是错误的,只能用be dated to或be dated at
to do 约束力较强,而这道题不管人类测不是不测量年龄,石头就是这么大的岁数,所以约束力不强就不用to do 了
be dated to 自...就有了/就存在了。或追溯至....
