The Scandinavian assault on Western Europe culminated in the early eleventh century with the Danish conquest of the English kingdom, which other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat, unsuccessfully later in the same century.
which other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat, unsuccessfully, later in the same century
which other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat later that same century, but not successfully
an achievement that other Scandinavian kings attempted later in the century to repeat, but were not successful at it
an achievement attempted later in the century by other Scandinavian kings that was not successful
an achievement that other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat later in the century, but without success
题目分析:
(A)(B)选项用了非限定性定语从句,which other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat的先行词为the English kingdom,该先行词在非限定性定语从句内部充当repeat的宾语;(C)(D)(E)用了同位语,定语从句that other Scandinavian kings attempted later in the century to repeat的先行词为an achievement,也充当repeat的宾语。
选项分析:
A选项:能被重复的(repeat的宾语)只能是过去的成就,而不能是“英国”。
B选项:本选项错误同(A)。
C选项:代词it的指代对象只能是单数名词,不能指代句子。在逻辑上,were not successful at的对象应该是整个复制的行为,而不是某一个单数名词。
D选项:尝试复制和没有成功之间应该是转折关系(but)而不是解释说明关系(that)。(并且,that was not successful的主语也不正确)
E选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。but without success是一个省略句,还原为正常的句子为
other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat later without success.
C错误:在逻辑上,were not successful at的对象应该是整个复制的行为,而不是某一个单数名词。
E:but without success是一个省略句,还原为正常的句子为
other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat later without success.
