考题讲解

题目分析:
本题对介词身后只能用名词短语的概念考查较为详细。

选项分析:

A选项:介词because of身后只能加名词,即,allowing money placed in a bank in a less regulated jurisdiction to be transferred to a branch in a more regulated one是动名词短语。动名词几乎继承了名词的所有性质,如果在语法上想给动名词加主语,只能用所有格的形式,例如:
people’s reduction of driving
people’s reducing driving
用之于本选项,allowing就没有句法上的主语,所以我们无从得知是谁在发出allow这个动作。本题中必须是“全球化”发出allow这个动作,因此本选项的allow缺少主语。

B选项:allow缺少主语错误同选项(A);allow的宾语为名词短语the transfer of money placed in a bank in a less regulated jurisdiction。也就是说,被允许的是transfer(交易)这个行为。从常理上,一件事情不能是被允许的对象,只能是允许某人去做某事。

C选项:allow的宾语是宾语从句,其核心词依然是其中的动作,即,transfer,该错误原理同选项(B)。

D选项:本选项错误同选项(B)。

E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
