Prep1-78和Prep1-105,关于何时使用动词的名词形式


  

78.
(28735-!-item-!-188;#058&003712)

 

The cottontail rabbit population in
Orange County, California, has increased unchecked in recent

(years as a result of the removal of )the

native fox population and the clearing of surrounding woodlands.

(A) years as a result of the removal of

(B) years as a result of removing

(C) years, resulting from the removing of

(D) years, which is a result of removing

(E) years, which is a result of the
removal of


 

考点:
   
有效用词(Diction

1)  介词短语n account of, because of, despite (in despite of), as a result of之后只跟简单的名词短

语。若其后面跟的是动名词或名词所有格+动名词短语(sb’s doing),或名词短语之后用一复杂的现在分

词来修饰时,应改为与其相同意义的连词because, although等引导的从句形式。

2)  动词有自己的名词形式时,就不要用the +动词ing形式来表达其名词形式

3) which不能指代整个句子

(A)
   
正确, as a result后面接名词的并列结构,表达正确,简洁

(B) as a result of后面加动名词不好,且根据未划线部分and the clearing判断出as a result of后面应该

是名词

(C) removalremove的名词形式,因此不用the removing表达remove的名词形式

(D) which不能指代句子,在这里没有指代; removing应该改为the removal

(E) which不能指代句子。




    

105.
(30121-!-item-!-188;#058&004107)

Even though it was not illegal for the

bank to share its customers' personal and financial information

with an outside marketing company in

return for a commission on sales, the state's attorney general

accused the bank of engaging in deceptive

business practices (by failing to honor its promise to its

customers to keep) records private.

(A) by failing to honor its promise to

its customers to keep

(B) by its failure of honoring its

promise to its customers to keep

(C) in its failing to honor its promise

to its customers of keeping

(D) because of its failure in honoring

its promise to its customers in keeping

(E) because of its failure to honor its

promise to its customers of keeping


   

(A)
     
正确,by doing to do 表示 engage in
deceptive business practice
的方式;promise 的习惯用法

promise to do
sth
或者 promise that…,而不是 promise of doing        in doing sth

(B)  名词 failure 不如动词 failing 简洁。

(C) its failing 是动名词不够简洁;promise of doing 的表达不正确。

(D)  名词 failure 不如动词 failing 简洁

(E) its failing 是动名词不够简洁;promise of doing 的表达不正确。

78选定removal,105选的failing,混淆选项都是集中在何时使用动词,何时使用动词的名词形式。为什么78这里一定要用removal,而105一定要用failing?

动词的名词形式和动名词在使用上有如何判断呢?困扰中。。

答案不是解释的很清楚嘛!

第一个是由于as a result of 后面只能接名词,不能接动名词。故只能用removal,而不能用removing.(你可以理解为固定搭配,或固定用法)

第二个是由于by(此处相当于through,是表示通过某种方式),故介词后面需要接动名词,强调动作,相比because of 更加简洁。

简而言之,不是第一个不能用动名词,只是ETS明确告诉你,as a result of 后面就是不能用,没有为什么,这就是所谓的公理,我们只是需要遵守,呵呵。

这里还有点不明白,by是表示原因吗?因为fail to honor its promise.....

by 是表示方式,

这里不选择because of也是因为because of 本来就不符合这句话的本意。

本意是,银行通过falling to honer。。。而参与商业欺骗活动,而不是“因为”falling to honer。。。而参与了商业欺骗活动~~

如果不是其它选项太离谱,我不倾向这里用by doing的结构

the state's attorney general accused the bank of engaging in deceptive business practices by failing to honor its promise to its customers to keep records private.

by falling 的发出者有些歧义  到底是律师通过by falling来accused 还是律师asscused 银行by falling...的欺骗行为

虽然从句意上容易排出歧义,但是结构还是不好,because of 就要好些
