看了答案，然后试着去解释，还能理解E为什么是对的，而且它选项错了。但是如果一开始从中直接选出E，我肯定会做错。我可能会选B。希望大牛能帮忙呀。作者: Jasmine10 时间: 2010-6-5 05:35
Parellel? " dated sharp-edged flakes of " and "the earliest date of ". I am not sure about it...作者: sportmann 时间: 2010-6-5 09:32
(C) should be the correct answer.作者: yawgamoth86 时间: 2010-6-5 09:37
這題就是C阿。。。作者: puqiandi 时间: 2010-6-5 13:08

我后来想了好几遍觉得ABCD意思都不对，它们说的都是在那个date，human被known了会make stone tools，而事实上意思是，会make stone tools 的人的那个date。作者: sportmann 时间: 2010-6-5 22:01
Scientists have dated sharp-edged flakes of stone found in the fine-grained sediments of a dry riverbed in the Afar region of Ethiopia to between 2.52 and 2.60 million years ago, pushing back by more than 150,000 years the earliest date when it is known that humans made stone tools.
A. when it is known that humans made (it 形式主语，但用法有歧义，见10楼） B. at which it is known that humans had made （同上） C. at which humans are known to have made （date at which 正确；不定式的动作已经完成所以用 know to have made 正确） D. that humans are known to be making (to be making在这里用法不当） E. of humans who were known to make （date of humans 这个表达很awkard 后面最好跟一个定语从句；另外后面的known to make表示动作发生在当前，这个不正确）作者: zxtcomeo 时间: 2010-6-6 17:51
a 选项it 指代that 从句 ,何以说指代不明? 这和 it is important that .....一样的! 指代不明何从谈起? 楼主这道题在哪找的? google 上搜找不到呀? it is 这种句型在这里是不是显的 awkward? 不如c 选项的那种表达简洁,而且 when 不如 at which 好,应该选c !不知道哪位牛人能给分析一下 a 选项作者: sportmann 时间: 2010-6-6 21:02
我的意思是A选项it的用法有很大的歧义。it在这里做形式主语，主语本身是后面的that humans made stone tools。
所以 the earliest date when it is known that humans made stone tools 可以理解成the earliest date when that humans made stone tools is known. 这样显然是不make sense的。这个when从句里面表达的fact修饰前面的earliest date, 但这个fact并不是was known at the date.
这里要表达的是the toolmaking happened at that date, but the fact is known now.

这道题答案给的是E不知道有没有错误作者: Rachel76 时间: 2010-6-12 09:07
上周发邮件询问了，答案有错！答案应该是C！作者: pansean 时间: 2010-6-12 13:21
B中，had made有错，过去完成时表示过去的过去，句中没有其他过去时形式 D中，对多年前发生的事描述竟然用现在进行时，错误明显 E中，of运用有误，造成human date is a type of date的误解 剩下AC，个人觉得2个都没明显语法错误，但从concision角度考虑，C比A的形式主语更简洁。作者: hermit127 时间: 2010-6-13 10:25
256. (28362-!-item-!-188;#058&003003) (T-4-Q1 TS-7-41) Scientists have dated sharp-edged flakes of stone found in the fine-grained sediments of a dry riverbed in the Afar region of Ethiopia to between 2.52 and 2.60 million years ago, pushing back by more than 150,000 years the earliest date when it is known that humans made stone tools. A. when it is known that humans made B. at which it is known that humans had made C. at which humans are known to have made D. that humans are known to be making E. of humans who were known to make
1, date from 一般用主动表达“始于。。”； 2, be dated (at) +时间， 表示**的年代定于什么时间；
另外， 1, be known for sth, 2, be known as sth, 3, be known to do sth,
这个是PREP原题，答案是C， A,B, 里面it做形式主语引导从句，我觉得没有指代问题，但是大家发现没有when和at which这个时候变成修饰be known了，改变句意，而C里面at which是修饰have made，这一点，从C里面的are to known也可以证实。
