those of other college-educated professionals--by an average of nearly $8,000 a year at the
start of their careers, and by almost $24,000
E其实我知道这题怎么做也觉得E不错可是,and by almost 24000的那个逗号让我十分不解,那后面又不是句子要逗号做什么作者: 珊若小花 时间: 2014-7-8 02:37

方便断句给你理解,千万不要纠结符号给你带来的一些preferred rule,这些所谓的规则都是相对性错误,不是绝对性的错误作者: alzn2765 时间: 2014-7-8 09:23
我感觉这是一个省略结构的意思:
完整的句子应该是
A recently published report indicates that the salaries of teachers continue to lag far behind those of other college-educated professionals--by an average of nearly $8,000 a year at the start of their careers, and (that the salaries of teachers continue to lag far behind those of other college-educated professionals) by almost $24,000 less a year by the time they reach the age of 50.
逻辑上这样才正确。
注意:破折号后面是by certain amount at certain time AND by by certain amount at other particular time. 如果是from amount A to amount B,是可以有一个范围的。
用中文从逻辑上想想:
我和你的工资差距是50和100元。这符合逻辑吗?
如果说:我和你的工资差距现在是50元,(我和你的工资差距)当我们50岁时是100元。这句话是不是符合逻辑了?这是不是就是E选项的表达方式?
我观察了很久了,GMAC每一个标点符号都用的非常妙。等我考完了写个专题总结一下。作者: 珊若小花 时间: 2014-7-8 12:41
