争论焦点：
The first disagreement between guan and I is whether the alternative choice A is a complete sentence. I think the original statement is not a sentence, but the choice A is. It is not only complete sentence but also 倒装。Guan, however, do not agree with me. He claims the A is not a sentence for it lacks the subject. What makes this shit so funny is other students also agree to his point. I think guan is terribly wrong. If this is not the case, how to explain the two sentences following I extracted from the GRE and LAST respectively?
Gre No 题3-3 SECTION A第19题题干. Among the natural defenses of the skin against pathogenic organisms are all of the following EXCEPT the
Among the factors that constrain the competitiveness of integrated producers are excessive labor, energy, and capital costs, as well as manufacturing inflexibility.
The choice A is not correct answer since the subject does not agree with the predicate “are”. The correct answer given by the goddamned ETS is alternative choice B. I suppose, however, if the predicate in the choice A, that is, the “are” is replaced by the “is”, the better answer would be A rather than B, for it does not change the intended meaning of the author who wants to emphasize the “among”. Another debate arises. Guan argues, the 倒装 exists only when such negative words as “none”, “never” is put the beginning of the sentence. Sucks! Am is really wrong? 管认为没有否定词提前不能倒装。
第二争论：
After 40 years research and development, a new type of jet engine is being tested that could eventually propel aircraft wherever in the world within 2 hours or help boost cargo …
After 40 year r and d, a new type of jet engine is being tested, and it could eventually have the capability to propel aircraft whenever in the world with 2 hours or help boost cargo…
管认为：第二个好，因为发动机应是先研发后试验，用他的话讲：eventually 才能推和帮助。观认为：第一个引导的是目的壮语从句而不是宾语从句。
我个人认为：1 比2好，that 引导斌从，could 表推测。Could have the capability 重复。
1) In a shit country, the jobless people accept the government assistance. The government provide supplement to the workers who accept the jobs that pay for less than the government assistance in order to make the employers to hire cheaply. However, the objection claims that the supplement will never raise the income of the workers above the government assistance, the jobless guys have no any financial incentive to find jobs.
To support the objection:
The correct offered by guan:
Generally speaking, the workers who are employed now tend to seek the higher-paying jobs than job seekers who are unemployed.
I doubt it can support the objection. On the other hand, is there any grammatical fault in the sentence? How do interpret the part “than job seekers who are unemployed”?
答案是比较吗？如果是，随和随笔？怎样理解job seekers 是一个词，2 个词？
