以下是引用tony9721在2003-7-15 22:33:00的发言:104. The diet of the ordinary Greek in classical times was largely vegetarian--vegetables, fresh cheese, oatmeal, and meal cakes,
and meat rarely. (A) and meat rarely
(B) and meat was rare
(C) with meat as rare
(D) meat a rarity
(E) with meat as a rarity
The best answer here must qualify the statement made in the main clause. The diet... was largely vegetarian: it cannot be treated as part of the list of vegetarian foods. In other words, the best answer must logically and grammatically attach to the main clause when the list is omitted. Choice A fails this test:The diet. . . was largely vegetarian, and meat rarely. D fails also, because it lacks a function word such as with to link it to the main clause. The wording of choice B is imprecise and ambiguous--for example, it could mean that meat was scarce, or that it was not well done or medium. Choice C is unidiomatic. Clearly phrased, grammatically linked, and idiomatically sound, choice E is best.
我的问题如下:
1. vegetarian 虽然可以做adj,但是其后有解释的vegetables, fresh cheese, oatmeal, and meal cakes 都是名词,所以vegetarian应该是名词吧
2. largely是adv,怎么可以修饰vegetarian 这个名词
3. A 是否因为and前面的comma而不好的呢,因为comma是不需要的,因为要和vegetarian 并列,而and 后面只有一个名词,是不是应该是vegetarian and meat 才可以,但是没有and 又不可以和前面的vegetables, fresh cheese, oatmeal, and meal cakes划清界限,所以干脆用with的形式来修饰vegetarian 这样就可以了
