求助OG-158

158. With only 5 percent of the world's population, United States citizens consume 28 percent of its nonrenewable resources, drive more than one-third of its automobiles, and use 21 times more water per capita than Europeans do.


(A)  With


(B)   As


(C)  Being


(D)  Despite having


(E)   Although accounting for



The word or phrase that begins this sentence should establish the contrast between the size of the United States population and the activities of its citizens. Choices D and E are the only ones that establish the contrast, and only E, the best choice, expresses meaning accurately with the phrase Although accounting for. With in choice A and Despite having in choice D confusingly suggest that United States citizens somehow possess, rather than constitute, 5 percent of the world's population. (怎么理解这段话?)Choices B and C lose the contrast between the opening phrase and the main clause, and As is unidiomatic in B.

就是说若是AD,就理解为美国人拥有有这么多人口,而不是美国人组成了世界上5%的人口

慢慢想想,有时看汉语也会晕的

        一点经验分享,但愿从中能体会到ETS解题目的精髓:逻辑意思


        with   伴随


        have  拥有


        constitute 组成


        have表示拥有或者占有,这个考点其实很有用,比如:   


1.        Some of the tenth-century stave churches of Norway are still standing, demonstrating that with sound design and maintenance, wooden buildings can last indefinitely.


(A) standing, demonstrating that with sound design and maintenance, wooden buildings can last indefinitely


(B) standing, demonstrating how wooden buildings, when they have sound design and maintenance, can last indefinitely


(C) standing; they demonstrate if a wooden building has sound design and maintenance it can last indefinitely


(D) standing, and they demonstrate wooden buildings can last indefinitely when there is sound design and maintenanceA


(E) standing, and they demonstrate how a wooden building can last indefinitely when it has sound design and maintenance


         用have来理解,看看几个选项的意思有多荒谬。房子伴随好设计显然比房子占有/拥有设计要合理
