The investigations of many psychologists and anthropologists support the generalization of there being little that is a significant difference in the underlying mental processes manifested by people from different cultures.
(A) of there being little that is a significant difference
(B) of there being little that is significantly different
(C) of little that is significantly different
(D) that there is little that is significantly different
(E) that there is little of significant differences
最后选择实在DE之间进行的,觉得E比D简洁。但是正确答案是D。
请问D对在哪里?
实在是想不明白
/。。。。。。。
跪求牛人关注
1.significant有歧义。可能是意义重大的意思。
2.little of 后面要修饰amount,不能修饰quantity.所以应该用few不能用Little。
significant表示重要的
significantly表示程度,大大地
两个词意思不同,ABC很好排除,主要集中在DE两个选项。原文后面有一个from
固定搭配是different from,因此E的difference不对
D选项significantly different表示“大大地不同”
选D
个人意见,欢迎拍砖
我这样理解E的,little是名词,of significant differences作为修饰,不知有何问题?
其实不是很明白句子的意思
little后面总觉得缺了个先行词。。。

哦~~明白了 之前一直觉得little后面要加个词 找到例句了
The little that I have seen of his work is satisfactory. 他的工作就我所见的那一小部分而言是令人满意的.

恩,你好像没明白我意思,可能我思路太另类了。。。
我是说(E) that there is little of significant differences of significant differences 做定语修饰little(of +n.=adj.),就像D that is significantly different 一样修饰little
of significant differences 做定语修饰little(of +n.=adj.),就像D that is significantly different 一样修饰little
貌似这个有点难解释,就是在读句子的时候断句的话我不会吧little和of断开,而把它们看成一个单位..
事实上,我没有见到过哪本语法书里写little of不能接复数名词,这是借鉴了下manhattangmat里instructor的一个观点。
不过Gmat官方资料里仅里面出现过一例用little of修饰的句子:大全20:Antarctica receives more solar radiation than does any other place on Earth, yet the temperatures are so cold and the ice cap is so reflective that little of the polar ice melts during the summer, were it to do so, the water levels of the oceans would rise 250 feet and engulf most of the world's great cities.
所以我暂时接受后面不能接复数的说法的.
就拿大全20的这个例子来看,little of the polar ice,中的little更像是代词(有些字典比如LDOCE也是把less定义为代词的)。也就像little of significant differences(假设这个结构成立)中,little更像是代词,而代词需要有所指,但是它不能指复数名词。
恩,楼上的最后那句话还有点晕~我再试着理解。。。
还望大家帮忙啊
