*74. Growing competitive pressures may be encouraging auditors to bend the rules in favor of clients; auditors may, for instance, allow a questionable loan to remain on the books in order to maintain a bank's profits on paper.
(A) clients; auditors may, for instance, allow
(B) clients, as an instance, to allow
(C) clients, like to allow
(D) clients, such as to be allowing
(E) clients; which might, as an instance, be the allowing of
The first independent clause of the sentence describes a general situation; in A, the best choice, a second independent clause clearly and grammatically presents an example of this circumstance. Choice B uses as an instance ungrammatically: as an instance requires of to form such idiomatic constructions as "She cited x as an instance of y." Also, this construction cannot link infinitives such as to bend and to allow. The infinitive is again incorrect in C and D. C misuses like, a comparative preposition, to introduce an example. D requires by in place of to be. E, aside from being wordy and imprecise, uses the pronoun which to refer vaguely to the whole preceding clause rather than to a specific noun referent.
这样分析有漏洞吗? 请各位NN帮忙
B, 把句子简化就是:
Pressures encourages auditors to bend the rules in favor of clients to allow a questionable loan…to remain…
骨头是
A encourage B to do sth in favor of C to do sth
那么 to allow 就指代不明了: to allow 到底是pressure发出的, 还是auidtors呢? 所以B选项错了.
由如
Laden asked Bush to kill Sadam to gain fame.
到底是Laden gain fame, 还是Bush gain fame? 不明了
不知道是不是可以用这样的办法排除B选项? 这样分析有漏洞吗? 请各位NN帮忙
我觉得OG说是as an instance错是障眼法
我指的是排除B选项的办法, 不知道合不合理. B中没有分号
对不起，一开始没有明白你的意思
如果按照你的思路：b去掉插入成分变成
Pressures encourages auditors to bend the rules in favor of clients to allow a questionable loan…to remain…
你说得对，to allow发出者不明确是一定的了，而且这句话awkward.
但是如果从另外一个角度看：
as an instance 在这里本身用法就有问题，它不能这么使用为插入语，而应该是for example, as instance之类的。如果能从这里否定b会更快一些。
