标题: GWD 第二套 Q3

Q3:

Not one of the potential investors is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were not to be concluded.

 

  1. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were
  2. is expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate Bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for penalties if the deal was
  3. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement be signed by them with a provision for penalties if the deal were
  4. are expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate Bank until it signs a merger agreement with a provision for penalties included if the deal was
  5. are expected to be making an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for penalties if the deal were

答案给出的是C,我觉得,until a merger agreement be signed 和if the deal were都不对,这个题目五个选项中好像没有正确答案的。

想听听大家的意见。

if the deal were 是指 假設的語氣   the deal 是不可數名詞 用were代表假設語氣 是可以的.

我反倒想問的是 答案A.  不好的地方在哪裡?  是因為 merger agreement is signed 並沒有指誰而不好嘛? 因為相對答案C 有明確限定形容 with them.

討論一下~

我觉得B最好,一前一后两个主谓都一致,而且主动优于被动。
不知道对不对?
但是有一点不敢确定,后面那个deal的意思是什么?

deal 指交易

B不对,if the deal were not to be...是必须的,表示对将来的假设

我同样不明白A错在哪里   对于until...后使用了虚拟语气  没法理解

答案是A不是C
P1#217

我当时排除了A是因为if the deal were,如果不理解成虚拟语气,而理解成条件从句,were就不对了。

make an offer to do...

B错在make an offer for...

为什么deal后面的be动词用were呢?

If + were is used to express contrary-to-fact in the present:

If I were a rich man, I would buy a Mercedes. (I am not a rich man.)

If + were to is used to express an unlikely condition in the future, something that could happen but probably won't:

If I were to win the lottery, I would buy a Mercedes. (It is unlikely that I will win the lottery, but it's possible.)
