版主好见解!
不明白……
是说AB中的they是指代analysts吗?
可是C中的to be conservative than they have been in……感觉怎么很奇怪呢?
困惑!
B:
首先they have been没有比较对象,至少要去掉been,否则无法还原.
其次即便去掉了been,they的指代不清晰让人觉得是在指代analysts,C里面有in setting的限制,故they肯定指代automakers.
如下句该去第一个毛病后的B:
Despite recent increases in sales and cash flow that have propelled automobile companies' common stocks to new highs, several industry analysts expect automakers, in order to conserve cash, to set dividends more conservatively than (analysts) have (expected).
或:
Despite recent increases in sales and cash flow that have propelled automobile companies' common stocks to new highs, several industry analysts expect automakers, in order to conserve cash, to set dividends more conservatively than (automakers) have (set).
ps:关于conservatively是有“保守的”的意思的。
