Unearthed in
A. offer the most dramatic evidence yet discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds
B. offer evidence more dramatic than what has yet been discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds
C. offer more dramatic evidence of the close evolutionary relationship than any yet discovered between dinosaurs and birds
D. have offered the most dramatic evidence of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds (A)
E. have offered more dramatic evidence than any that has yet been discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds
我选D,答案A,其实没看懂这题。。。
原文说的是:在中国出土的带有羽毛的恐龙化石,是至今发现的最有力的关于恐龙和鸟类进化联系的证据。
D错在没有任何时间短语表示要用完成时
YET (adv.)
1. (= so far)
used in negative statement to describe a situation
that has existed up to this point or up to the present time;
2. (= so far) used after a superlative
可以这样理解吗
yet discovered表示“已发现的”,做evidence的后置定语,为了便于理解,可以放到前面来修饰:fossils offer the most dramatic yet discovered evidence of the relationship between…
恩,我就是像LS那样理解的,但是感觉这样把evidence和of分开总会有点不够明晰。。。
谢谢
这题真是诡异啊!第一遍做完全不知所措,结果还是选错了(D)。后来看了大家的讨论,发现D确实改变了逻辑意思。
我查了一下牛津中yet的用法,the best, longest, etc. sth ~ (done) the best, longest, etc. thing of its kind made, produced, written, etc. until now/then: the most comprehensive study yet of his music ◆ It was the highest building yet constructed
根据这个用法,我觉得yet在表达这个意思时,只能使用最高级,不能使用比较级,应该是个固定用法
另外,我觉得“中国故乡的云”的解释也可以参考
