13.

答案,a descendant of 还是a descendant from ?比较D/E,除此之外,还有其它什么区别吗?may/might

22. A collection of 38 poems by Phillis Wheatley, a slave, was published in the 1770’s, the first book by a Black woman and it was only the second published by an American woman.

13、名词的时候是 descendant of ,动词是descend from,好象没有其他区别了

22、JOY,对于限定修饰词的位置,一个方法是尊重A选项的问题,除非意思有重大不合理,这是一个参考的方法。其实C和E的意思有明显的不同,你再好好想想。

bravemba,

I cannot discern the difference between C and E. Could you please explain in detail?

Thanks.

我理解:
(C) the second one [only published by an American woman]
强调的是“仅由...出版”,就是说没有得到其他的帮助,自己就搞定了(这种大白话听着那么不专业),强调的是后面的动作

(E) [only the second] published by an American woman
强调的是“唯一的第二本由...”,强调的是SECOND BOOK。

当然C中的ONE也显得累赘。我还是那个观点,对待限定性修饰词优先考虑原文中的位置,除非有重大不合理。
