考题讲解

题目分析:
本题的意思是:沙漠里居住这几种不同的动物,每一种都有其自身的方法长期适应湿气不足的环境。

选项分析:

A选项:当我们说,某些物种居住在沙漠里,这些物种需要做inhabit的主语。例如:
Elephants inhabited forests. 
因此,被动语态时,应该用be inhabited by。(被动语态规定,A is done by B在意思上和B do A近似)因此,应将inhabited with改为inhabited by;另外,每一个物种应该拥有它自己的适应方法,所以和each搭配的需要是单数代词its。

B选项:inhabited with搭配错误同选项(A);distinctly是副词,其修饰形容词several,这是不正确的。在逻辑上,是不同的物种,而不是不同的several。

C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

D选项:having each its own method of adapting to long periods of moisture shortage是现在分词短语,无论是做伴随状语还是several distinct animal species的定语都是不正确的(不能一些不同的物种拥有一个方法吧)。 

E选项:每一个物种应该拥有它自己的适应方法,所以和each搭配的需要是单数代词its;that无法引导非限定性定语从句。
