(A) and with its superiority to the horse being
(B) and its superiority over the horse had been
(C) and its superiority to the horse
(D) its superiority over the horse
(E) with its superiority to the horse having been
BY给的答案是B,大全的答案是C. 我认为是B, B的时态也能说过去,而且和前面从句对称.而C名词短语和前面不对称.
我选C.
and 前后部分对称并列....usefulness of the motor case was demonstrated and its superiority to the horse proved.....
prove 用主动表示被证实....
但是Longman对superiority的用法:
the quality of being better, more skilful, more powerful etc than other people or things
ᅳopposite inferiority
superiority of
the supposed superiority of the male sex
superiority over
the intellectual superiority of humans over other animals
superiority in
US superiority in air power
并没有superiority to这种用法
并没有superiority to这种用法
同意
superior to是有的
superiority to是没有的
demonstrate和prove并没有先后啊,为什么要用had been proved,给个用过去完成时的理由先。B不对。
关于superiority, longman上的确是用over. 但是形容词superior是用to的. 所以,我猜测superiority to也可以。
在逻辑和阅读大全上有以下例子:
LSAT: Top college graduates are having more difficulty demonstrating their superiority to prospective employers than did the top students of twenty years ago when an honors degree was distinction enough.
GRE: demonstrate the superiority of using an economic approach to historical analysis
GRE: demonstrate the superiority of laboratory studies of zooplankton feeding rates to other kinds of studies of such rates
当然,superiority over的用法也出现过,所以我觉得to, over都可以。ETS应该会有一些其他线索来帮助排除.
关于B,时态感觉不对,另外and不能连接两个句子吧,逗号+and才行
白勇书上也自相矛盾的P12,7.并列结构中的省略2)就举了这个例子的“proved前省略了was”,而P132解释中却又说C选项不对
C,
"had been proved" is unidomatic for its unidiomatic passive usage and its needless past perfect tense.
Donot focus on the prep, only idiom is a must.
(A) and with its superiority to the horse being
(B) and its superiority over the horse had been
(C) and its superiority to the horse
(D) its superiority over the horse
(E) with its superiority to the horse having been
BY给的答案是B,大全的答案是C. 我认为是B, B的时态也能说过去,而且和前面从句对称.而C名词短语和前面不对称.
(A) and with its superiority to the horse being
(B) and its superiority over the horse had been
(C) and its superiority to the horse
(D) its superiority over the horse
(E) with its superiority to the horse having been
BY给的答案是B,大全的答案是C. 我认为是B, B的时态也能说过去,而且和前面从句对称.而C名词短语和前面不对称.
i believe C is the key.
proved是was proved的省略形式。因为前面was demonstrated中有WAS. not had been. so B is wrong
