Thomas Eakins' powerful style and his choices of subject—the advances in modern surgery, the discipline of sport, the strains of individuals in tension with society or even with themselves—was as disturbing to his own time as it is compelling for ours.
was as disturbing to his own time as it is
were as disturbing to his own time as they are
has been as disturbing in his own time as they are
had been as disturbing in his own time as it was
have been as disturbing in his own time as
in his own time是过去的时间段,不能用现在完成时。所以选B。
托马斯•埃金斯(Thomas Eakins)强大的风格和他对主题的选择——现代外科的进步、体育学科的发展、个人与社会甚至自身之间的紧张关系——对他自己的时代和对我们这个时代同样令人不安。
Time时代 现在完成时是现在的一个时间点
time 时态
句子表示他的时代 我们的时代,是不同时态,E省略了be动词就变成了同样时态。
E的主要问题就是时态吧,毕竟选项中已经说了In his own time所以肯定不能有现在完成时
E 没有完成时标志
用助动词代表前面的动词时,要注意时态一致;如果时态不一致时,要重复前面的动词如
Wrong: I have never seen an aardvark, but last year my father DID. 动词have seen与助动词did时态不一致,应该改为
Right: I have never seen an aardvark, but last year my father SAW one.
①time在这里表示时代的意思。
②第一遍做的时候在破折号的理解上花费了很多时间(纠结并列的杰哥名词为啥没有and之类的连接 = =瞎操心...)
③第一遍做的时候对于as ... as... 不知道为啥头脑风暴出了平行...影响了后面的判断
Cheese is as great as people say
主谓一致:主语为style和choices,所以谓语动词为复数,所以排除AC,D选项过去的过去,没有过去时间做比较,所以也排除;E选项:Eakin的style和choices影响到现在我们,所以不能用完成时;排除E
用现在完成时应该是一个现在的时间点
主语是 powerful style and his choices,所以谓语动词和代词都要用复数。排除ACD。
E里面in his own time是过去的时间段,不能用现在完成时。所以选B。
They were as X as they are Y.
Notice the important addition of the word "they" in the second element to make a proper comparison between elements in different time periods.
E如果说看成xxx have been as disturbing in his own time as xxx have been compelling for ours,这个时态不对,his own time和ours首先应该不是重叠的,都用have been就有问题
好吧time是时代。。
‘’时态从一般过去式变成了一般现在时,谓语动词由were变成了are,所以要补出主语‘’(毛巾)
原则上,句子省略是可以的。但是E因为后面for ours 将时间拉到了现在,这样就应该是现在时态。而省略的前提是,主语谓语相同,才可以省略。were 与 are明显不同,所以不能省略。
而且in his own time表示过去时间,并没有从过去跨到现在的意思,所以have使用也存疑。所以E错误。
关于as disturbing as:Mr. aeo 在prep08里面讲过,as disturbing 第一个as是adv,表示程度。第二个as是连词,连接句子(本题E的连词使用没有问题,因为连词可以连接省略的句子)。既然是两个句子,那么have就不能理解为跨越in his own time 和for ours两个时间区域。
前后时态不一致,一个是过去的影响一个是现在的,如果你后面像E一样就默认了时态和前面是一致的
当they are compelling时候正在disturbing, 而不是have been一直disturbing
时态从一般过去式变成了一般现在时,谓语动词由were变成了are,所以要补出主语
主谓不一致排除abd,比较对象时态不同,所以谓语动词不能省略,排除e
E have been illogically indicates Eakins' time continues to the present day
