考题讲解

题目分析:
(D)中的定语从句which reflect the interpretation of emotions就近修饰products of the conscious mind,其使得reflect的主语是products of the conscious mind;在(A)(B)(C)(E)中,reflect的主语均为feelings。

选项分析:

A选项:首先,feelings are products of the conscious mind身前的连词that可以省略,我们依然可以知道是emotions evolved in the nervous system to help animals survive in hostile environments and procreate和feelings are products of the conscious mind具有并列关系。但是,虽然在语法上两句话的并列没有问题,但是在逻辑上两者是不能并列的。由于两句均是maintain的宾语从句,所以它们均应是神经科学家现在的观点。那么显然地,科学家应认为的是“感觉是感情的一种演绎”而不是“感觉是有意识的产物”(并且,and身前的句子讲的就是关于感情(emotion)的问题)

B选项:并列连词and身后的宾语从句缺少谓语动词。

C选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。

D选项:不定式短语to procreate需改为procreate。这是因为,如果加上to,会使得to procreate和to help animals平行。但在逻辑上,应该是procreate和survive平行。

E选项:并列连词and身后的宾语从句缺少谓语动词。
