Based on accounts of various ancient writers, scholars have painted a sketchy picture of the activities of an all-female cult that, perhaps as early as the sixth century B.C., worshipped a goddess known in Latin as Bona Dea, “the good goddess.” (A) Based on accounts of various ancient writers, (B) Basing it on various ancient writers’ accounts, (C) With accounts of various ancient writers used for a basis, (D) By the accounts of various ancient writers they used, (E) Using accounts of various ancient writers, 选E 解释说based on修饰scholars不恰当 我查了一下字典， based on：if one thing is based on another, it uses it or is developed from it（以某事）为基础，为依据 base sth on sth: to use an idea, a fact, a situation, etc. as the point from which sth can be developed 根据字典的解释，可不可以理解为based on 的主语不为人，而base sth on 的主语为人，因而based on 修饰scholars不恰当？？作者: dajiahaoh 时间: 2010-4-12 09:44
E好，我的理由是排除法： A。Based on...., sb 前面的based 是过去分词，表示被动，所以它的主语应该是逗号后面紧跟的名词或代词。显然根据句意，scholars不是这个主语，是scholars基于什么内容，不是scholars被基于。 B。多了一个it。it是什么？没有得到立刻解答。 C。很让我纠结。如果在考试中，我就C和E当中选一个了。C的问题是used这个过去分词修饰谁不清楚。如果修饰的是accounts，那么为什么要basis？有点多余，且这个basis是什么后面也没解释。如果used修饰writers的话，就不符合逻辑意思了 D。they是谁？ 所以，选E作者: yoxsheila 时间: 2010-4-14 21:09
