The Emperor Augustus, it appears, commissioned an idealized sculptured portrait, the features of which are so unrealistic as to constitute what one scholar calls an ―artificial face.‖
A. so unrealistic as to constitute
B. so unrealistic they constituted
C. so unrealistic that they have constituted
D. unrealistic enough so that they constitute
E. unrealistic enough so as to constitute
结构 主语The Emperor Augustus ,it appears(插入语,可忽略), commissioned(谓语) an idealized sculptured portrait, the features(同位语,指portrait) of which (定从)are so unrealistic as to constitute what(宾从) one scholar calls an ―artificial face.(解释,同位语)
这题,首先排除DE 选项,enough和so 意思重复了。
排除B 没有见过SO..that 结构省略THAT的
C是时态问题,整个句子都是一般式,完成时态不匹配,第一谓语commissioned表示动作发生在过去,定从的时态应该和宾从时态一致,用一般现在时。
所以答案是A
以上是第一题,我的分析。
================================================================================
Unlike
George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, both of whom running as independent candidates, H. Ross Perot's independent run for the presidency in 1992 arose not from an unsuccessful effort to gain a major party nomination but from a desire to establish a viable third party in American politics.
A. George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, both of whom running as independent candidates,
B. George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, each of whom ran as independent candidates,
C. George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980, both of which ran as an independent candidate,
D. the independent candidates, George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980,
E. the independent candidacies of George in 1968 and John Anderson in 1980,
此题A选项的both of whom是不是该改成both of who >不改Unlike是介词,介宾是一种结构,WHOM是宾格 错不是这里,ABC 错的是 和H. Ross Perot's independent run 不平行。
