考题讲解

题目分析:
略。

选项分析:

A选项:介词短语of consumers having the power to change companies by the simple expedient of refusing to buy是the simple thesis的定语,这个定语部分的核心词为consumers(having the power是现在分词短语,做consumers的定语)。在逻辑上,一个简单的主题应该是一件事,即,消费者有改变的权力,而不是消费者本身(一定是消费者做了什么事为主题,没有消费者的主题)。因此,这个介词短语应改为一个同位语从句

B选项:核心词错误同选项(A)。

C选项:连词where引导的定语从句必须修饰地点名词,不能修饰Shopping for a Better World。另外,冒号后虽然可以用名词短语,但此处冒号后的核心词变成了consumers,错误同选项(A)。

D选项:with a thesis that is a simple one是一个介词短语,其看起来可以是主句the Council on Economic Priorities began publishing Shopping for a Better World的状语。但在逻辑上,应该是Shopping for a Better World这本杂志的主题,不能是publish的主题。

E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
