题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:划线部分的代词it应该同未划线部分出现的its指代对象相同,即,the company,但是,在逻辑上,在过去两年内下降的应该是公司的利润(its profits)而不是公司本身(the company)。
B选项:时态有误,had increased是过去完成时,过去完成时必须存在于有明确的过去时间点作为参照的语境中,即,表示过去的过去,本句中由于没有明确的过去时间作为参照,所以此处不能用过去完成时;it错误同(A)。
C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法上和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项:本选项中的介词短语with a five percent increase是状语(用逗号和主句隔开的介词短语通常都是状语)。顾名思义,状语是用来修饰动词的特性或特征的。在逻辑上,“增长了5%”描述的是profit的特点,而不是be evident的特征,由于profits是名词,所以“增长了5%”必须做profits的定语。
E选项:本选项错误同(D)。
这个解释有问题,首先状语就不一定是修饰动词的,举个例子,I read the book on the table. "on the table"是状语吧?它修饰read吗?显然修饰的是book。
看RON说,当with前面有comma的时候, A. 它可以修饰preceding clause 此时的作用相当于V+ ing B. 也可以修饰preceding main noun 此时作用相当于which 具体修饰什么,完全是看context。 这道题我觉得with的修饰从语法上来说没有问题,只是which更好,因为which只能修饰profits,一点歧义都不会造成,非常严谨。而with既然都可以,那么读者就会思考一下with后面的内容是修饰哪个部分,因此从表达的严谨上来看,which更好。
当with前面有comma的时候, A. 它可以修饰 “preceding clause” 此时的作用相当于V+ ing B. 也可以修饰 “preceding main noun” 此时作用相当于which 具体修饰什么,完全是看context。 那么按照你这种说法 With........ 修饰句子有歧义 修饰 main noun 也有歧义 因为 main noun 是 results, results 不能提高吧~ 毕出 的解释是正确的 你说错了 同学~!请纠正
on the table 是定语修饰book
