Past assessments of the Brazilian rain forest have used satellite images to tally deforested areas, where farmers and ranchers have clear-cut and burned all the trees, but such work has not addressed either logging, which is the removal of only selected trees, as well as surface fires, burning down individual trees but do not denude the forest.
which is the removal of only selected trees, as well as surface fires, burning
which removes only selected trees, or surface fires that burn
which removes only selected trees, along with surface fires that burn
removing only selected trees, or surface fires, burning
removing only selected trees, as well as surface fires that burn
题目分析:
本题主要考查了对于功能平行的较为深度的理解。
选项分析:
A选项:首先,定语从句which is the removal of only selected trees有误。将先行词代入从句则有:
logging is the removal of only selected trees.
提取主干后可知:
logging is the removal
在逻辑上,显然伐木不能是移动,而是伐木发出了移动这个动作。
另外,either…. as well as…搭配错误,应该用either…or…。
最后,现在分词短语burning down individual trees做surface fires的定语是没有问题的。但是,注意到未划线部分but do not denude the forest在逻辑上也应是surface fires的定语,因此burn事件和denude事件应是平行的,即,burning down individual trees需改为that burn down individual trees。
B选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
C选项:either…along with搭配错误,应该用either…or…。
D选项:本选项迷惑性最大。平行触发语either…or…连接的平行应是两个名词的平行,即,either A or B。这和两个名词身后的定语在形式上是否平行没有任何关系。本选项的错误是现在分词短语burning down individual trees和denude事件不平行。
E选项:either…. as well as搭配错误,应该用either…or…。
Past assessments of the Brazilian rain forest have used satellite images to tally deforested areas, where farmers and ranchers have clear-cut and burned all the trees,
but such work has not addressed either 【logging(, which removes only selected trees,)】 or 【surface fires (that burn down individual trees but do not denude the forest)】.
过去对巴西雨林的评估使用卫星图像 来统计((tally)砍伐森林的地区,这些地区是农民和牧场主已经将所有树木都砍伐并烧毁,
但这项工作既没有解决【伐木(这种伐木仅移除选定的树木)】,也没有解决【地表火灾(这种火灾烧毁单株树木但不破坏(denude)森林)】。
