标题: 求助OG12-74

OG12-74题:

A 1972 agreement between Canada and the United States reduced the amout of phosphates that municipalities had been allowed to dump into the Greak Lakes.

(A) reduced the amout of phosphates that municipalities had been allowed to dump

(B) reduced the phosphate amout  that municipalities had been dumping

(C) reduced the phosphate amout  municipalities have been allowed to dump

(D) reduced the amout of phosphates that municipalities are allowed to dump

(E) reduced the amout of phosphates allowed for dumping by municipalities

该题正确答案为D。

因为倾倒的行为一定是在协议之后并一直持续,所以动词不可能用过去完成或现在完成时,但为什么是municipalities are allowed这样的被动语态呢?就算被动,也应该是by municipalities吧?很不理解。还是我对句子理解有误?请大家帮忙答疑解惑。

提前谢谢了!

你说过段时间我以为你明后天来呢!!!
理解有误, 这个城市被允许倾倒的量
因为 Canada and the United States之间达成的agreement. 所以只能是这个agreement 允许municipalities怎样就怎么!!

恍然大悟啦,原来是酱紫,谢谢谢谢啦!!

这题做了3次都错了,每次都还是选A.............

之前的理解是had been allowed, 被允许倒的动作发生在协议之前,既是过去的过去。所以可以用过去完成时态。

看来碰见类似题要挂了。

我也很疑惑啊,我自己感觉是因为这个dump的动作发生在agreement之前,所以才出现了这个agreement来阻止dump,但是看OG上解释说是因为从1972年以后如果这个dump在写下这个句子的时候仍然存在那么用are ,如果在写下句子的时候没有了,那么就是were。
我疑惑的是既然是reduced,代表已经减少,那么也就是说减少的都是以前的了,那么应该是发生在reduced之前啊。很不解,很不解,很不解!!

OG上的解释:

An agreement that occurred in 1972 is correctly described with the past tense verb reduced. Since the dumping continued after the date of the agreement, the past perfect verb had been allowed should instead be the present are allowed (if theagreement remained in eff ect when the sentence was written) or the past were allowed (if the agreement was no longer in effect when the sentence was written). Since were allowed does not appear in any of the options, we can assume that the correct verb tense is are allowed. The phraseamount of phosphates is clear and idiomatically correct, whereas phosphate amount is not idiomatic.

A “Had been allowed” should be “are allowed”.

我也很不解 为什么要用are? NN们能给出更明白的解释吗?
作者: feir2004    时间: 2009-12-13 13:40
原句是说,a 1972 agreement reduced the amount of phosphates,而the amount of phosphates是什么样的呢?是municipalities are/were allowed to dump(省略了by the agreement),如果在写这个句子的时候,这个agreement还继续有效的话(我理解的是相当于这个动作持续到“现在”--作者说这句话的时候),就用are,否则,就用were.也就是说如果答案中有municipalities are allowed to dump和municipalities were allowed to dump,两个都可以作为答案,因为从原句中无法判断出这个agreement是否还继续有效。但答案中只有municipalities are allowed to dump,所以答案是D。

这个解释我都懂。我的疑惑就是前面已经用了reduced,是过去时,说明计划执行之前dump的动作就已经存在了,所以感觉不应该用are。

报告,实验结果等结论一经提出就不会变化,所以用一般现在时are allowed.这样理解对嘛?

应该没关系的,这里也不是这些,而是个agreement。

我也一直错A上 有谁可以对OG的解释翻译翻译啊...
作者: mycontrol01    时间: 2009-12-19 10:52
Since the dumping continued after the date of the agreement,


这一句是OG里的解释 但是OG是如何判断这个时间逻辑的呢?!

allow 的逻辑主语是municipalities ,是municipalities 被允许倾倒phosphates,如果非要用by municipalities 的话,就应该将D选项改成reduced the amount of phosphates that are allowed to be dumpped by municipalities.
另外,that 从句是修饰phosphates ,由于现在仍会有municipalities 倾倒phosphates ,所以用一般现在时。
