题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:语法有误,虚拟语气句子,主句必须一开头就是主语,而不能是连词、副词,因此instead错误。
B选项:instead错误同选项(A)。
C选项:would have to be collapsing是很混乱的时态;would have to是不很肯定的语气,其表达的是have to do的内容只是一个假设,并不是真的“必须”,而have to表达的意思是,要做的事情非常重要,“必须”去做,前后矛盾。
D选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
E选项:名词短语a star’s collapse需改为不定式短语a star to collapse,这点考查了不定式和名词的区别,用之于本题,显然地,cause的约束力较强,身后应用不定式做宾语和宾语的补足语。
首先要看出Were it not for the fusion-powered heat and radiation that rush from its core = If it 【were】 not for the fusion-powered heat and radiation that rush from its core
然后就会知道这是个【虚拟语气/条件状语从句】!
A/B选项:instead a star would have collapsed under its own weight语法有误,虚拟语气句子,主句必须一开头就是主语,而不能是连词、副词,因此instead错误。
D选项:a star 【would】 collapse under its own weight正确
