标题: 求教~曼哈顿Ch10-odds&ends习题14中关于yet改错的解释看不太懂 [打印本页] 作者: lionsue 时间: 2013-1-2 15:31 标题: 求教~曼哈顿Ch10-odds&ends习题14中关于yet改错的解释看不太懂 14原句： ( Between)1998 and 2003, there was heavy fighting in Parthia(between)numerous armed factions（yet）this conflict, so much more complicated than a conventional war( between) two states, involved no(less)than eight countries and twenty-five militias.
改正句： Between 1998 and 2003, there was heavy fighting in Parthia AMONG numerous armed factions; this conflict, so much more complicated than a conventional war between two states, involved no FEWER than eight countries and twenty-five militias.
其中关于拿掉YET的答案解释： Yet should be a semicolon. Yet is illogical because the action in the second clause (this conflict ... militias) did not happen despite the action in the first clause (Between ... factions), as a word such as yet suggests.
