Last week local shrimpers held a news conference to take some credit for the resurgence of the rare Kemp's ridley turtle, saying that their compliance with laws requiring that turtle-excluder devices be on shrimp nets protect adult sea turtles.
A.requiring that turtle-excluder devices be on shrimp nets protect
B.requiring turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets is protecting
C.that require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets protect
D.to require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets are protecting (B)
E.to require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets is protecting
看了解释还是没弄清楚为什么不用protects而是用is protecting呢?
笔记中举了GWD的一个例题解释这个问题,此题中were强调了过去认为,因此该用ing表示现在,而不是用一般时表示常态或公理。
但是prep此题中无时间标志,且compliance是合规,遵守的意思,应该用protects表达一种一直、长期都在保护海龟,而不是用is protecting表正在保护吧?老觉得is protecting 的解释有点牵强.........-- by 会员 四月雪sophie (2011/7/16 11:40:11)
