65. Critics of the trend toward privately operated prisons consider corrections facilities to be an integral part of the criminal justice system and question if profits should be made from incarceration.

(A) to be an integral part of the criminal justice system and question if

(B) as an integral part of the criminal justice system and they question if

(C) as being an integral part of the criminal justice system and question whether

(D) an integral part of the criminal justice system and question Whether

(E) are an integral part of the criminal justice system, and they question whether

Answer to Question 65

When consider means "regard as," as it does in this sentence, its object should be followed immediately by the phrase that identifies or describes that object. Thus, to be in A, as in B, and as being in C produce unidiomatic

constructions in the context of the sentence. Also, although (/and whether can be used interchangeably after some verbs, question if, which appears in A and B, is unidiomatic, and they in B is unnecessary. E also contains the unnecessary they, and it uses the ungrammatical construction consider... facilities are. Grammatically and idiomatically, sound D is the best choice.

我选择的是A，这个题目的疑惑在于og的解释我不是很理解。在以前的语法学习中，consider。。。to be 是合乎语法又说的，但是这里却说是unidiomatic?

(1)注意正式书面用语应该用whether;

(2)consider 有不同的意思，注意此处是regard as。而consider 此意思时，通常要求名词做宾语补足语。比如，count也是。
