题目分析:
略。
选项分析:
A选项:That twenty-one ceramic dog figurines were discovered是主语从句,其应该改为名词短语The discovery of twenty-one ceramic dog figurines,这点考查了名词和从句的区别。用之于本题,显然地,在逻辑上能发出“两倍了我们已知的工艺品的数量”的只能是“发现”这个事件,我们只能说在“发现21个工艺品”这个事件发生的时候,它两倍了工艺品的数量,这个时间之后,任何时候我们都不能这么说(例如,在一年后,可能已经发现了很多个类似的工艺品,这个发现自然就不能2倍工艺品的数量了)。一个事件必然是有时间终止点的,因此应该用名词短语。
同理,excavating需改为名词excavation,这点考查了名词和ing的区别。用之于本题,由于excavate这个动作发生在during这个介词短语中,显然excavate在本句中不能脱离自己发生的时间(during本来就表示主句的发生时间在excavate这个动作的发生时间段内),因此,during身后只能用名词短语。
B选项:按照本选项所写,谓语动词has nearly doubled的主语的核心词变为Twenty-one ceramic dog figurines。但在逻辑上,发出两倍这个动作的只能是“发现”这个事件,不能是figurines本身。
C选项:本选项错误在原理上和选项(A)相同。
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。
discovering 强调的是动作过程,
discovery强调的是事实?
subtle differences
the thing you NEED to think about is this:
if you see a split between
* an -ING form that's used as a noun, and
* a dedicated noun form,
then ALWAYS pick the dedicated noun form.
只有ing形式时,也可做为正确答案接受
难
MARK.
A 主语从句 语法上没有错误 在语义上 发现这件事应该已经完成了 所以需要noun 跟make sense
A 选项 that 是主语从句,为啥后面不能接单数has?
has nearly doubled是主句谓语,前边找一个单数的主句主语,只能是E
has,主谓一致,ABD错。CE考外延内涵,应该是发现的结果而不是过程使得数量翻倍,E对
