题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:由于they are immune from smallpox是一个虚拟的情况,即,它是存在于“实验者感染cowpox”的情况下的,因此,其应该用虚拟语气,即,they would become immune from smallpox。
B选项:分词短语causing only a mild illness是伴随状语,其主语为它所修饰的句子的主语,即,experimental subjects。但在逻辑上,引起疾病的应该是 cowpox,而不是experimental subjects。
C选项:本选项错误同选项(A)。
D选项:本选项错误同选项(B)。
E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
cause only a mild illness可以用动名词,也可以用which从句来做定语修饰cowpox,但是如果causing only a mild illness前面加了逗号,就可以当做独立主格做状语,它的主语是experimental subjects,语义不对,可以排除BD。
另外整个that从句用的是虚拟语气,所以动词都要用虚拟形式。排除C和A。
