考点: 比较(Comparison)比较结构中比较双方概念要对等:在比较结构中,比如in contrast with, in contrast to, compared with, compare to等类似的结构,比较的双方必须概念对等.但要注意contrary to放在句首,后面必须 加上idea, belief等抽象名词修饰主句,不存在比较双方的问题. 例: Contrary to popular belief," victors in the ancient Greek Olympic Games received cash prizes in addition to their laurel wreaths.
(A) 正确, in contrast to比较的对象imbalances和trade deficit概念对等
(B) imbalances和United States概念不对等
(C) compared with的比较对象imbalances和United States概念不对等
(D) compared with的比较对象imbalances和United States概念不对等
(E) compared with的比较对象imbalances和United States record exports概念不对等,且后半句结 构笨拙复杂.句子结构: In contrast to…, the United States trade deficit… declined…
原文大致意思:和对中国和日本的贸易不平衡相比,美国对于墨西哥的贸易赤字下降了,这种下降是由于record exports。
题目分析:读完原文,我们发现是美国对中国日本的trade imbalances和美国对墨西哥的贸易赤字形成了对比,这个对比没有明显错误,我们先留着A。B是trade imbalance和美国这个国家比较了,杀。C犯的错误和B是类似的,杀 D也犯了类似错误,杀 E比较的东西变成了trade imbalance和record exports,这个对应显然语义也不对,杀。
