答案是什么？E？作者: miss绿光 时间: 2012-8-15 21:39 http://www.manhattangmat.com/forums/prospecting-for-gold-during-the-california-gold-rush-t6025.html国外论坛的解释,我把对四个选项的解释copy过来(还有其他的部分,你愿意可以去看): (a) Prospecting for gold during the California gold rush was a relatively easy task,because of erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds thrust to the surface by volcanic activity put gold literally within reach for anybody with a pan or shovel. this is "because OF + CLAUSE". prep + CLAUSE is not a valid sentence structure.
(b) Prospecting for gold during the California gold rush was a relatively easy task, because of erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, and putting gold literally within reach of anybody with a pan or shovel. there's nothing parallel to the boldface construction; "and" requires that there be some parallel construction earlier in the sentence. (c) Prospecting for gold during the California gold rush was a relatively easy task, owing to erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that had thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, and putting goldliterally within reach of anybody with a pan or shovel. same problem as in (b). also, "owing to" is sketchy and informal -- i wouldn't use that in a formal sentence, unless i were actually writing about someone literally owingsomething (like money) to someone else. (d) Prospecting for gold during the California gold rush was a relatively easy task, since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, putting gold literally within reach for anybody with a pan or shovel. "since" is a subordinating conjunction, so the words after “since” should constitute a sentence by themselves. in this example, those words are NOT a complete clause; they're just a noun (X, Y, and Z), followed by two modifiers (the "that" modifier and the "comma + ing" modifier).作者: jeffisid 时间: 2019-6-5 05:04
