看了以前的讨论: http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&ID=17460
还是觉得E最好, A明显有歧义啊. that给人的感觉就是exquisite bouquet. 这里E就没有任何问题.
E. 最后的 bouquet 不需要,冗长,虽然没有语法错误。
A. that 指的就是 bouquet, 简洁而已。所以答案依旧应该是 A.
我觉得应该是选最好的. 虽然E中的bouquet可以省略, 但是A中的that有指exquisite bouquet的嫌疑. 这样就是歧义. 那么E自然就是最好的答案了.
我也错选了e,但后来分析,觉得是不是这样理解:that一般指代前面的中心词,不包括修饰成分,所以可以认为不会造成歧义,即A中的that不会指代exquisite bouquet,而是指代bouquet。
是这样吗?期待nn确认。。。。
当然是A好
首先,E中第二个bouquet是多余的;
其次,TO compare ....is to compare 中的两个to compare的对象应该尽量的平行,无论从形式上,还是逻辑意思上。就像汉语里的比喻一样。A中的两个to compare 后都用 ...OF....明显好些。
再次, a fine wine’s bouquet 这种表达方式应该没有 bouquet of a fine wine好。毕竟,wine是无生命或类似的东东。
