GWD-26-Q20
hours a week.
A. chores; by 1997 they had spent nearly six hours a week
B. chores; by 1997 that figure had grown to nearly six hours a week
C. chores, whereas nearly six hours a week were spent in 1997
D. chores, compared with a figure of nearly six hours a week in 1997
E. chores, that figure growing to nearly six hours a week in 1997
8月JJ有此题, GWD中答案是B . 可是B不仅时态不对,而且和前句之间也没有连词啊. 而且E没有错啊, 独立主格结构. 盼NN们解答. 多谢! 下周考,急
1st: "by 1997" is different meaning with "in 1997". This will change original meaning of the sentense.
2nd: If you want to use E, it should be like "chores, and that figure growing ..."
Above is my two cents.
祝你成功!
