A majority of the international journalists surveyed view nuclear power stations as unsafe at present but that they will, or could, be made sufficiently safe in the future. (A) that they will, or could, (B) that they would, or could, (C) they will be or could, (D) think that they will be or could (E) think the power stations would or could 当时选E的理由:1, the power stations 避免了they的指代不清,后者有指代A majority of the international journalists之嫌。 2, 不明白will be or could与 would or could的区别,觉得后者都是过去时,比较一致。 看了答案后,猜测选D的理由是 1,think后的宾语从句必须加that,这一点可能优先于指代清晰。 2,could是指“可能”,比can更委婉一点,或者说可能性更小一点(好像记得中学老师说过),而不是过去时。 不知道分析得对不对,请高手指点 作者: smartj 时间: 2003-12-4 12:00
