题目分析:
略
选项分析:
A选项:首先,at least表示“至少”,two decades or more表示“二十年或更多”,这两者在语意上是赘余的(二十年或更多表示的就是至少二十年)。其次,由于状语 for at least two decades or more previous to when the Venetian artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo died in 1770用了过去时,且主句的发生时间肯定在该从句之前,所以主句应用过去完成时。
B选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
C选项:动词die是点动词(所谓点动词,就是那些开始即完成的词),由于点动词根本就没有持续的时间,所以开始就意味着到达了终点,自然不可能用ing的形式。(参考名词和ing的区别)
D选项:主句时态错误同选项(A)。
E选项:本选项没有主句。When the Venetian artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo died in 1770是状语从句,having been for at least two decades before that the most admired painter in Italy是伴随状语。
C,dying错误,“一直死”显然语义上有误
D,时态问题和A一致
E,无主句
B correct
2.句子结构,E没有主句,E错
3.简洁,at least two decades or more previous to表达错误,不简洁,AC错
4.动词,die是一个瞬间动词,这里不应该用dying,有专有名词death,C错
2、动词die是点动词(所谓点动词,就是那些开始即完成的词),由于点动词根本就没有持续的时间,所以开始就意味着到达了终点,自然不可能用ing的形式。
for at least … before,都是在修饰before
C: C和B成分一样,for at least two decades or more描述赘余;
D: 在主句前加了介词短语for at least two decades是状语,往后修饰主句he was——因为when..., for… 用逗号隔开了,for 紧贴着he 因此向后修饰;
语法上没有问题,但是he was有两个时间点;
E:找不到主句

之所以没有选B 是认为B中的had been有已经结束的意思……
觉得A中的was不是致命的错误 赘余才是不能容忍的
综合下来B确实更好
meaning first
因为没有比B更好的选项了
