题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:不定式短语few people to have significantly reduced the amount of driving需改为从句that few people have significantly reduced the amount of driving,这点考查了不定式和从句的区别。用之于本题,由于indicate的约束力较弱,因此应该在宾语处选择从句。另外,are making和reduced虽然在语法形式上都是动词,可以认为平行,但这两个动作应该在相同时间段发生,需用made
B选项:谓语动词indicate的宾语部分应该用从句的形式,而不能用名词+宾语的补足语的形式。
C选项:宾语从句 that there are few people who have significantly reduced the amount of driving的核心词有误。There be句型的核心词是“有”。但研究揭示的内容应该是人们没有减少开车这件事。
D选项:and前后不平行,并且后半句变成了few people are not making fuel efficiency a priority when shopping for cars,实质不平行错误同(A)。and在否定句中是“或”的意思,要用or来表示“和”。
E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
indicate that,排除AB
C,there be表示这里有,但是语义上应该是indicate 某件事
D,平行错误
