标题: GWD9-Q3

3)GWD-9-Q3:

Because of wireless service costs plummeting in the last year, and as mobile phones are increasingly common, many people now using their mobile phones to make calls across a wide region at night and on weekends, when numerous wireless companies provide unlimited airtime for a relatively small monthly fee.

 

A.    Because of wireless service costs plummeting in the last year, and as mobile phones are increasingly common, many people

B.    As the cost of wireless service plummeted in the last year and as mobile phones became increasingly common, many people

C.    In the last year, with the cost of wireless service plummeting, and mobile phones have become increasingly common, there are many people

D.    With the cost of wireless service plummeting in the last year and mobile phones becoming increasingly common, many people are

E.     While the cost of wireless service has plummeted in the last year and mobile phones are increasingly common, many people are

请教下,这道题答案是E吗?如果是E的话,我有一个问题就是,在while从句中,in the last year存在情况下用了现在完成时,这样可以吗?难道in the last year用现在完成时,而last year则是一般过去时的标志呢?请nn多多指教:)反正in the past 5 years之类的是应该用完成时的。

It's easy to eliminate A,B,and C.

Left D and E, D is too awkward when it says with the phones becoming increasingly common,

so E wins.

I won't think too much about whether the in the last year is right.

E的现在完成时后面加in the last year ,对吗?

来看阿3的解释:

IMO D


        

E is wrong because it is showing contrast with the use of while. There is no contrast in the sentence.


作者: anistonlucky    时间: 2009-8-6 11:33

Still E

D is not right.

While in E means when, not comparison here.

plummeting in the last year is right, that means it's still plummeting, but it's already finished.

I still think E is right.

阿3的解释错了,答案是E无异议。

5楼6楼的MM们,你们错了。答案是D;

我中午吃饭特意请教了我的美国同事,While有表示比较的含义,他给我的解释是,当前半句用完成时态时,and后面要保持语态一致。


谁能告诉我,D,错在哪里吗?

阿3的英文比国人好,大家不要盲目自大。
如果他们和美国人的理解一致,就更可怕。

汗颜ing。现在理解了D确实比E好,一时草率轻狂,见谅:)谢谢指教:)

这个是新PREP里面的,答案是D没错的。

E,while表达了转折的含义,而文章没有这层意思。

我想问下B是不是因为第二个as是多余的所以错了?

补充一点疑惑,一直认为become是短暂性动词,不可以用ing形式,有这种说法吗?

B最致命的错误在于many people后面没有谓语动词are,前面是as引导原因从句,后面应该是个完整句子,要有自己的谓语动词。

对耶,B缺少谓语动词。。唉,真是粗心。。

谢谢MM

再补充一个,那那个as...and as第二个as多余吗?

我也错选了E,现在看看E,除了while的问题,mobile phones are increasingly common,感觉怪怪的,are common是一个状态,不能用increasingly来修饰吧,加一个动词become比较好。

D难道不能认为ieshi独立主格吗?

更正:B难道不能认为ieshi独立主格吗?

楼上
显然不是啊 前半句是as结构,many后面应该是主句才是,不可能是独立主格 独立主格是一个主句+独立主格结构 B选项显然不符合要求

还有,独立主格结构中少见as结构
