1. GWD21-Q1: 应该是at speeds不是with，A和B错。还有A中is错，应该是are C中higher than对，as不对 D中关于that我看到两种解释，一个理解that为指代speed，但是和前面speeds单复数不配合，错。另外一种理解是省略了speeds，补充上去是speeds that......但是这种省略是不对的。 E对，省略了than (speeds that) are......作者: 花子落落 时间: 2011-1-12 09:18
Even if D were to replace that with those, E would still be better. The intended meaning is that the speeds would be much higher than are currently possible. In E, the verb are makes the comparison clear.作者: 花子落落 时间: 2011-1-12 09:21
对了~我ms还看到过说英语受法语影响较多什么的，说偏向于将修饰词放在n后面，除非是那些非常简单的修饰语。D中at much higher speeds,speeds前面的修饰词much higher放在后面会更加顺口什么的。不记得了，可以无视这一条。作者: 花子落落 时间: 2011-1-12 09:22
