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)。
D、E:that引导的是宾语从句,expect后面等同于双宾语;一般带双OO的是传递类动词
所以一定要补全看!!
DE错在 expect sb that SOV...(第一边做的时候没注意到这个that从句不对)
since the EXACT WORD setting doesn't appear anywhere else in this sentence, the sentence is incorrect.
C to be 和haven been对应
“当句子expect automakers出现时,一定是强约束力,所以永远是expect sb to do sth. 但是,如果要在后面加that 或者名词,就要直接跟在expect的后面而不是expect automakers that....立刻减弱了expect内在的“强势”的内涵。”
2_more than 比较的情况下,预判什么比什么? 过去对分红的态度 vs. 现在的态度, a/b均是比较 “现在分红的态度 vs. 过去的人”,
比较对象错误。 有比较的情况一定要想明白什么比较什么。
这是A.B 错的原因, 补充完整B than they have been setting dividents, 而setthing 并没有出现在前面的句子中, 所以错误。改成have done 就对了
C. expect to 是idiom 表示将来, have been表示 a trend that continues up to the present date.
平行讲究的是 as good as it possibly can be.
B这里改成have done怎么理解呢:是have set结束,done指set,还是have done set又省略了呢?登录 或 注册 后可以参加讨论
expect的约束力较强,宾补需用不定式的形式
是这样的,than后面的内容要根据前面的比较对象来定,这道题a选项前面说的是set dividends more conservatively,set是动词而非像c选项的to be more conservative中的be(系动词);因此,a、b选项的than后面加do,而非were

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
