标题: og 12 39(诊断） [打印本页] 作者: fay009 时间: 2010-3-22 23:13 标题: og 12 39(诊断） 39. According to scholars, the earliest writing was
probably not a direct rendering of speech, but was
more likely to begin as a separate and distinct
symbolic system of communication, and only later
merged with spoken language.
(A) was more likely to begin as
(B) more than likely began as
(C) more than likely beginning from
(D) it was more than likely begun from
(E) it was more likely that it began
答案说选择B。我就不明白。not x but y中的x和y不应该是平行的么。。是一个形式的么？如果是B，不是一个名词一个动词么？ 作者: slamshady 时间: 2010-3-22 23:47
1.be likely to do sth likely作形容词.译为有可能做某事. eg:It is likely to rain. 好像快要下雨了.
2.likely do sth . likely做副词.译为大概.. 主要用在most,或者very.后面. eg:They'll very likely come by car. 他们很有可能会开车来.作者: fay009 时间: 2010-3-23 12:52
呃。。。还是。。还是不明白啊
was probably not a direct rendering of speech, but more than likely began as a separate and distinct symbolic system of communication
那不是a direct rendering of speech和more than likely began as a system平行么。。 began在这里是动词么。。
这个结构到底是怎样的呢。。。
谢谢大家啊。。。作者: slamshady 时间: 2010-3-23 17:02
这里不是not X but Y句型，but在这里作连词，the earliest writing was probably not a direct rendering of speech 和but more than likely began as a separate and distinct symbolic system of communication 是两句话，但主语都是the earliest writing
这道题好像出得有点妖，故意引诱我们去想not x but y.作者: 裴小臻grace 时间: 2010-3-23 22:23
...那 more than likely 是什么意思啊作者: slamshady 时间: 2010-3-23 23:05
more than应该是表程度吧。。。表示非常有可能作者: fay009 时间: 2010-3-26 12:48
好像有点明白了。。谢谢~作者: yahoochao 时间: 2010-3-26 23:17
弱弱的问一句~~lz 你这是OG12 -39题么？？作者: fay009 时间: 2010-3-27 08:43
是啊 OG12的诊断部分的39题- -。。我标题写得还算清楚吧。。。作者: newconcept123 时间: 2015-11-21 06:02
这题让我感觉怪异的地方是标点符号，but前面有逗号，似乎暗示but后面要跟整句吧。 (看来这个不一定，是吧？）
但是好像was, but began, and merged这个结构是对的...
