13. GWD-18-Q18

The first shots of the American Revolution, fired at Lexington and Concord.  Massachusetts, were, according to legend, heard around the world, but news of these shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days to reach Charleston, South Carolina.

 

A.      shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days

B.       shots that was sent by swift messenger took four days in order to reach New York City, and also another eleven days

C.      shots that were sent by swift messenger took four days to reach New York City and another eleven days

D.      shots took four days by swift messenger in order to reach New York City and another eleven days in addition

E.       shots took four days by swift messenger to reach New York City and another eleven days

答案是E, C为什么不对呢? 原句中的 sent可以随便剩去吗?

我觉得是c,用了被动

E清楚,它的确省了sent,但是对语意没有影响。take 时间 to 做某事 by是表示通过一种方法

我觉得C的错误在于将原文的非限制性定语从句改成了限制性的,从而改变了句意。按照C的意思:新闻报告里,由信差传送的那些花了4天到达纽约。。。 但原文的意思是,新闻报告花了四天到达纽约...,这些新闻是有信差传送的。  大家可以好好琢磨一下。应该是这样哈

UP E

swift messenger 应该是传送NEWS的,而不是SHOTS

C的错误在于be sent的主语是the news 而不是shots,news是,be动词只能是单数,所以应该把从句改成that was sent,这里that was不能省略,如果省了sent by修饰的对象就优先是shots了,引起歧义,因而保留that was.

B的in order to reach和to reach不对称,且take some time in order to 搭配错误。
