Despite recent increases in sales and cash flow that have propelled automobile companies' common stocks to new highs, several industry analysts expect automakers, in order to conserve cash, to set dividends more conservatively than they were
to set dividends more conservatively than they were
to set dividends more conservatively than they have been
to be more conservative than they have been in setting dividends
that they will be more conservative than they were in setting dividends
that they will be more conservative than they have been to set dividends
题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:抛开插入语 in order to conserve cash,本选项主干为:
several industry analysts expect automakers to set dividends more conservatively than they were
在逻辑上,需要比较的对象应为“预期中的制造商的派放股利行为”和“制造商曾经的派放股利行为”。因此,than身后应改为than they have done。
B选项:本选项错误同(A)。
C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项:从句that they will be more conservative需改为不定式短语to be more conservative。这点考查了不定式和从句的区别。用之于本题,由于发生这种变化的部分为expect的宾语的补足语,所以应根据expect的约束力判断。显然地,expect的约束力较强,宾补需用不定式的形式。
E选项:本选项错误同(D)。
不是您上课讲过看法类动词比如wish、hope、expect主动语态约束力弱,被动语态约束力强吗?
在本句中的分析就是分析师预期(expect),但是并不能直接影响后面事情的发生呀?
全串了。这三个词哪儿是看法类动词啊。。。
- expect, wish, hope 这组近义词中expect约束力强,wish、hope约束力弱
- 看法类动词如believe、think、know,在主动语态下约束力弱,在被动语态下约束力变强
