Before scientists learned how to make a synthetic growth hormone, removing it painstakingly in small amounts from the pituitary glands of human cadavers.
scientists learned how to make a synthetic growth hormone, removing it painstakingly
scientists had learned about making a synthetic growth hormone, they had to remove it painstakingly
scientists learned how to synthesize the growth hormone, it had to be painstakingly removed
learning how to make a synthetic growth hormone, scientists had to remove it painstakingly
learning how to synthesize the growth hormone, it had to be painstakingly removed by scientists
1. E:句子开头是learning,由此可见主句的主语应该是人scientists,而E选项中主句的主语是it,因此排除E;
2. B:Before 从句的时态是过去完成时态,而句子中没有表示过去的过去的时态词。排除B;
3. A:A选项使得整个句子不是个independent 句子,排除A;
4. D:remove it中it指代的是a synthetic growth hormone,但根据句子意思可知应该是remove 人体中的growth hormone,而不是synthetic growth hormone。此外remove这个动作的发出者应该是doctor,而不是scientists。由此排除D。
做题时多注意句子的逻辑意思。
