标题: 请问大全247题 OG247

OG 247. Faced with an estimated $2 billion budget gap, the city's mayor proposed a nearly 17 percent reduction in the amount allocated the previous year to maintain the city's cultural institutions and to subsdize hundreds of local arts groups.

? "the previous year" 之前是不是应有个 in 什么的？

Thanks!

顶。我也觉得theprevious years 前面没有介词读起来很别扭。这种用法有考据么？

同感有没有ＮＮ解释一下？

I got following explaination from Yahoo, and I think it makes sense.

The previous year means the calendar year before the one you're in. Today is June 18, 2008. The previous year is January 1 to December 31 2007. In the previous year is the last twelve months. That would be June 18, 2007 to June 8, 2008.

I think we can understand it better by substituting ' year'for 'week'.

For example:

I went to met Andy last week. (means the action happened at any time in last calendar week: from monday to sunday )

I went to met Andy in last week. (means the action happend at any time of last one week: from seven days before yesterday until yestday )

So the same rule for YEAR.

open to discuss.
