4.A common disability in test pilots is hearing impairment, a consequence of sitting too close to large jet engines for long periods of time.
(A) a consequence of sitting too close to large jet engines for long periods of time (B) a consequence from sitting for long periods of time too near to large jet engines (C) a consequence which resulted from sitting too close to large jet engines for long periods of time (D) damaged from sitting too near to large jet engines for long periods of time (E) damaged because they sat too close to large jet engines for long periods of time
可不可以理解为需要一个名词形式和impairment相对应(排除d选项damage和impairment 之间重复的错误),如果是的话,把D选项改成resulting from sitting ...正确吗?
另外D选项中还存在一个near 和 close 的区别问题,查了一下郎文,说是在某些短语中 不能互相替换,e.g. the near future, the near distance / a close friend, close behind, 其他的没说有什么区别,那么在此例中二者是不是可以互相替换?
near adverb 1 : at, within, or to a short distance or time *sunset was drawing near* 2 : ALMOST, NEARLY *was near dead* 3 : in a close or intimate manner : CLOSELY *near related* 4 archaic : in a frugal manner
