On August 13, 1868, the warship U. S. S. Wateree, anchored in the harbor of Arica, off the coast of what is now northern Chile, rode on the crest of a tsunami (seismic sea wave) and coming to rest in the Atacama Desert, it was some three miles up the coast and almost two miles inland from its initial anchorage.

题目分析:
本题的大概意思为:
1868年8月13日, 战舰U. S. S. Wateree在Arica港口抛锚,该港口在智利北部的沿岸, 战舰遭遇海啸引发的浪潮,被冲至Atacama Desert。
选项分析:
A选项:并列连词and连接的两者不对等,其身后的coming与rode不平行,逻辑上应该是船做了两件事,一件是碰到了海啸,另一件事是被冲到了沙漠中;it was some three miles up the coast and almost two miles inland from its initial anchorage是一个独立的完整句,其和前句之间缺少连词。
B选项:while引导了时间状语从句,这使得整个句子不合理。语意是:
当船在沙漠里停靠的时候,它碰到了海啸。
C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
D选项:riding on the crest of a tsunami (seismic sea wave)和to come to rest in the Atacama Desert中间缺少并列连词and,两者在形式上也不平行。
E选项:rode和came不平行错误同选项(A)。
被抛锚在港口的战舰,港口离海岸很近,乘着海啸的浪峰,然后停在了沙漠,沙漠距海岸大约3英里,距最初的抛锚地大约2英里。
anchor抛锚,下锚,使固定住。东西抛锚用被动式,是人在主动抛锚,本题的anchored是被动分词;
off这里是副词,副词可以做表语,如:The sun is up.;I must be off now.;We're BEHIND in our plan.
be off sth,远离某物,在某物之外,如:
Sarah's off in India somewhere. 萨拉远在印度某地。
The harbor is off the coast of what is now northern Chile, 该港口位于现在的智利北部海岸外。
1.句子结构,这个句子缺谓语,应该用rode而不是riding,DE错
A的it was是run-on句子,A错
2.平行,and前后应该平行,A错
3.逻辑推理,B的while用在这句意错误。B错
3.逻辑推理,D的desert后面少个逗号,导致some...这部分变成了修饰词。D错
anchored是被动分词,off the coast远离海岸线
off the coast of what is now northern Chile修饰harbor,some three miles up the coast and almost two miles inland from its initial anchorage修饰desert
tsunami 海啸!不能出现在沙漠里!B不对
注意:comma+v-ed也不永远是作modifier,有的时候很有可能是大平行中的一部分
找动词半天半天找不到
三个的并列
On August 13, 1868, the warship U. S. S. Wateree, anchored in the harbor of Arica, off the coast of what is now northern Chile, rode on the crest of a tsunami (seismic sea wave) and came to rest in the Atacama Desert,some three miles up the coast and almost two miles inland from its initial anchorage.
总感觉anchor前面的那个逗号特别不好...(看了很多遍发现看不懂之后就要立刻跳出微观层面 宏观的来看整个句子)
some在此处为adv.大约
some three miles up the coast and almost two miles inland from its initial anchorage做什么成分?
生词太多,没判断出动词之间的关系。、
能够确定 rode和came之间的关系,秒选C
1
‘...anchored in the harbor of Arica, off the coast of what is now northern Chile,...’双定语
A 'and coming...‘不平行
B while 只能表同时或者转折 context 句子意思不对
C 平行 ’some three miles up the coast and almost two miles inland from its initial anchorage‘ 定语修饰Atacama Desert
D 无谓语verb
E had come to 事态错误 没有过去式做比较
主语 the war ship 谓语 rode on and came to 后面的未划线部分是desert的同位语 anchored是过去分词,修饰the warship
选项A前后不平行
选项B 把碰到海啸和刮到沙漠理解为同一时刻发生的,改变了句子意思
选项D前后不平行,desert后面少了逗号
选项E两套主谓结构,had come 时态不当,which is 可以省略
