标题: 一道很怪的语法,请教!

Not one of the potential investors is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were not to be concluded.


A: is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were


B: is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement be signed by them with a provision for penalties if the deal were


我选择了A,虽然A中的that includes没有B中的with短语简洁,但我的疑问主要是B中的be done的用法,是否可以省略would之类的词语,因为if之后使用的是虚拟语气;


多谢各位NN;

Oasiswater,

偶在原题目上加了下划线,请以后发帖尽量加下划线,这样大家看起来会比较方便。

另,能不能把题目补全先?

谢谢!

Agree with LES.

And, even there is an omitted WOULD, option B is wrong. As UNTIL is similar with IF, with which a clause cannot implement future tense. A WOULD is therefore invalid.

Your comments will be appreciated.

多谢楼上两位,多谢LES帮我划了一下。

剩下的三个答案存在很明显的错误的,所以偶就没有输入,因为无法copy,所以就把两个迷惑的答案挑出来了,偶也认为B中表达的不合理,可答案给的是B,所以就想让各位nn给分析一下,看是不是我老眼昏花看不出来了?

偶觉得本句中的until不可换成if,因为本句子是一个not until引导的大的结构,not放在句首,until直到中间才出现,同时if是虚拟语气;

请指教...
