Stock levels for domestic crude oil are far lower than in past years, leaving domestic oil prices vulnerable to any hints of oil supplies being disrupted in the Middle East or to any unexpected consumer demand growth possibly prompted by colder-than-normal temperatures.
(E) resulting in the fact of domestic oil prices that are vulnerable to any hints of oil supply disruptions in the Middle East or to any unexpected growth in consumer demand that might be
这题我选了C,主要当时一看B觉得or 之后没有to,结构上不并列。
之后仔细看了看选项C,其实还是有很多问题的,比如vulnerable to hints of oil supplies that are disrupted的表达就比较vague而且不够concise, as was possibly看上去也是不正确的~~~
这里想求教一下:
1. 想B选项中这样or之后没有to的表达是否准确呢?
2. C中as was possibly...的表达怎么进行解释?
Thx in advance!
1,B选项 or后不需要to 因为是any hints 和 any growth的并列。
2, C选项中 as was possibly......是as 引导的定语从句。修饰consumer demand。
但我们要注意这个结构,虽然用在这里句子结构没什么错误,但我认为在意思上和被修饰词不一致。因为在这种定语从句中,as表示“正如。。。”、“好像。。。。”、“由。。。。可知”等含义,所以用在这里修饰consumer demand 好像不合逻辑。
而且,AS引导定语从句通常为非限定性从句,和前面主句要用逗号隔开,如果引导限定性定语从句则要和such, the same,as 等先行词构成固定搭配。
3, oil supply disruptions 和 oil supplies that are disrupted 是完全不同的,一个中心是disruptions,另一个中心是supplies。在这句话中,根据逻辑意思显然用 oil supply disruptions 更合适。
