考题讲解

题目分析:1940年代美国的主流杂志开始报道娱乐圈的人的私生活,然而之前这些出版物主要写关于商业和政治领域的人的文章。


选项分析:

A选项:尽管:despite... 或者 in spite of...,没有in despite of的用法

B选项:逗号后面直接是in spite of引导的介宾短语,其中又有一个fact的同位语。所以逗号后面的核心意思是:尽管有一个事实。但想和前文形成转折关系,直接写明“之前如何如何”更加合理,而不仅仅是“有一个事实”

C选项:whereas是连词,连接两个句子,后半句是一个there be句型,所以后半句的核心意思是“然而之前这里有一些个体”,不合逻辑,无法与前句形成转折。

D选项:“they featured”是修饰individuals的定语,所以后半句的核心意思是“然而之前那些个体是商业和政治领域的”。依旧与前句的转折不强烈。

E选项:正确。后半句的核心意思是“然而之前这些出版物写的文章是关于商业政治领域的人”,可以与前文“1940年代出版物开始写的是娱乐圈的人”形成转折。
