标题: og161 the one's use

161. A wildlife expert predicts that the reintroduction of the caribou into northern Minnesota would tail if the density of the timber wolf population in that region is more numerous than one wolf for every 39 square miles.


(A)  would fail if the density of the timber wolf population in that region is more numerous than


(B)  would fail provided the density of the timber wolf population in that region is more than


(C)  should fail if the timber wolf density in that region was greater than


(D)  will fail if the density of the timber wolf population in that region is greater than


(E)   will fail if the timber wolf density in that region were more numerous than


D,
the best choice, uses a correct sequence of present and future
indicative verb forms--predicts, will fail, and is--in the three
related clauses. Density, an abstract "mass" noun, is logically
construed with greater than. In A and B, would fail disagrees with the
other verbs in tense and mood. Choice A misconstrues density with more
numerous than, and B uses the pretentious and illogical word provided for ifm a conditional clause after a negative idea (would fail).
C's should fail and was are confusing and inconsistent with predicts. C
and E use the absurd phrase timber wolf density. (The wolves are not
dense; their population is dense.) E also uses an inconsistent
subjunctive form, were, and misconstrues density with more numerous
than.


can you tell me the use of  one?

thanks

one表示定指, 就指固定的那么一个, 可以参见OG134对于C的解释.

这个ONE不就是表示数量吗?跟电脑那题一样,整个结构是比例.

one表示定指, 就指固定的那么一个, 可以参见OG134对于C的解释.

og134里的one特指就是那么一个,没有其他的另一个,表示强调。

og161里的one是特指the density (of the timber)的范围么?就是说狼的density?

也不知道表达清楚了没有,继续请教中。。。。。。

one表示就那么一个, 和a不同, a可以表示一种泛指, 不一定就是数量上的一个, 但是one出现必然是指数字上的一, 而且这个还有特指的意为.

那这样的话,是不是就是比较狼的密度呢?把在northern Minnesota 的狼的密集度和every 39 square miles 一只狼进行比较

好像不是很理解哦,继续请教Avantasia gg

这里的One不是表示特指,而是密度的一个表示方式,同样地在OG里还有eight out of 100 pupils has one computer
