1. Some scientists have been critical of the laboratory tests conducted by the Federal Drug Administration on the grounds that the amounts of suspected carcinogens fed to animals far exceeds those that humans could consume.
(A) far exceeds those that humans could consume
(B) exceeds by far those humans can consume
(C) far exceeds those humans are able to consume
(D) exceed by far those able to be consumed by humans(E)
(E) far exceed those that humans could consume
OG:
Choices B and C omit the conjunction that—an omission that is grammatically acceptable, but in the case of this sentence diminishes clarity.
关系代词在从句中如果做宾语不是要省略吗,为什么在这里不能省?
谢谢DANSY,可是我还是不明白OG里的in the case of this sentence diminishes clarity.
WHY?
OG9.Astronomers at the Palomar Observatory have discovered a distant supernova explosion, one that they believe is a type previously unknown to science.
(A) that they believe is
(B) that they believe it to be
(C) they believe that it is of
(D) they believe that is
(E) they believe to be of
Choice E is best.
The pronoun that in A and B should be deleted, since the pronoun one is sufficient to introduce the modifier and the sentence is more fluid without that.
由此可见:关系代词在从句中做宾语省略后是可以使句子变的更流畅的。
如果说OG9是因为one紧跟其修饰对象explosion而不会引发争议。那665中有没有that看不出对它的clarity有什么影响啊?
哈哈,tony6兄的困惑源于你良好的语法基础,兄弟第一次看这个B和C时,是错将指代amounts的those看成修饰people的了,those people(那些人)或许是句子表达不够明确的唯一理由了。

石头G过奖了,不是什么基础好,是一战时被语法害苦了,深知了这厮的厉害,硬着头皮,不较真不行啊。
本句中确有几个复数名词可以供those指代,但是就句子结构(位于从句中)和逻辑(由consume来指向)来看,除了指向amounts别的都太牵强。
更主要的是如果说问题出在those指代上,那,还是那句话,那有没有that看不出怎么影响它的clarity啊。
麻烦石头GG和大家再给看看,谢谢。
tony6, stoneren已经讲得很清楚啦。
其实是由于those本身的特殊性造成的,因为它既可以是形容词:those humans - 那些人,好比 those cars,那些车...
同时those又可以做代词,指代amounts。
小贴士:
gamt所用语法和我们国内的一些语法是不一样的,而我们是后者培训出来的
