(E) attrition, which provides increased pension benefits and a special early-retirement program for speeding the attrition process


C??哪里错了?             原句中 increased pension benefits and a special early-retirement program 同未化线部分是从属关系可是在B中变成并列关系.地位不是改变了吗?为什么还可以接受呢

I am the same skeptical.


1, B has completely changed the original meaning by introducing a parallem.


2, 'to speed the attrition process' is less idiomatic than 'to speed up the attrition process.


3, On the contrary, C, i think, is good.

C,我觉得有一个问题



C补全也就是:


attrition will be speeded up by providing increased pension benefits and a special early-retirement program


这里providing分词短语的逻辑主语变成attrition,不合理呀~~


举个例子:


She earns her living by selling insurance.


这样的by doing才使用正确。


不过我也不是很确定,大家帮忙指正!

Agreed. So now C is more wrong than B or C has bigger mistake. ------- this is     a very good point to crack SC questions. Thanks , escniffer.



but B still has     flaws:

1, permits attrition 与provides increased pension benefits and a special
early-retirement program

平行?实在说不通

2, speed the process? --- could not find any support for this usage. eg:



speed up phrasal verb

to move or happen faster, or to make something move or happen faster

ᅳopposite slow downThe truck speeded up going down the hill.

speed sth↔ up

The new system will speed up the registration process.



请大家讨论

质疑一下权威:

attrition will be speeded up by providing increased 和She earns her living by selling insurance是不一样的,前者是被动语态,后者是主动语态

被动的逻辑主语是第三者,by providing的逻辑主语也是第三者,而不是attrition

而主动语态中by的逻辑主语是句子的主语

C选项错误的原因是:

(1) 不必要的被动;(2) 精确性 attrition be speeded up不如attrition process贴切;(3)可能的非限定修饰的错误

希望和大家探讨并给予确认
