天山 7-Q29 verbal-SC

Prospecting for gold during the California gold rush was a relatively easy task, because of erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds thrusts to the surface by volcanic activity put gold literally within reach for anybody with a pan or shovel.

A.     because of erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds thrusts to the surface by volcanic activity put gold literally within reach for

B.     because of erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds thrusts to the surface, and putting gold literally within reach of

C.     owing to erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that had thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, and putting gold literally within reach of

D.     since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, putting gold literally within reach for

E.      since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface by volcanic activity put gold literally within reach of

ANS:E...

我覺得看來看去每個ANS都很不好,,為什麼E可以呢?since開頭的句子.....

同时以上还有within reach of/ for的区别

這個怎麼區別ㄚ??

I choose D

I think that in E the meaning is not right.... "erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds" put gold literally within reach of anybody

I think the usage of since in this question is ....

in dictionary: since <prep>

from a time in the past till a latter past time or till now

EX. She's been working in a bank since leaving school.

therefore, I think D might be right

also "putting gold literally within reach" underscores the cause-effect nature of the situation. <---form og259

再讨论下这题

我觉得选D,  而E的意思不对,如huawang所说

我把他翻译出来大家看看:

D: since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, putting gold literally within reach for

由于腐蚀,史前冰河运动,以及火山活动等因素将古老的蕴涵金子的河床推倒表面,使得任何人拿个锅和铲就能得到金子.

E: since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface by volcanic activity put gold literally within reach of

而E的语序,将河床同前面的各种因素并列 显然不正确.

另外D的within reach for the people 没有任何错误 并不能象xianer2那样按2个词组解释.

我的感觉就好象 a letter for you 和a letter of you一样

大家觉得如何呢

支持E

D: since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, putting gold literally within reach for

erosion,movement,riverbeds可以并列，volcanic activity ，putting不能和以上三者并列，否则就破坏原文意思了

E对

Prospecting for gold during the California gold rush was a relatively easy task,  since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface (by volcanic activity) put gold literally within reach of anybody with a pan or shovel.

很清楚, 淘金那么容易的原因是: 由于erosion(腐蚀作用), prehistoric glacier movement(史前冰川活动) 和 ancient, gold-bearing riverbads to the surface by volcanic activity(古老的含金量极高的河床被火山活动推到地表),这一切真真切切地把金子推到任何一个淘金人面前.

D.     since erosion, prehistoric glacier movement, and volcanic activity that thrust ancient, gold-bearing riverbeds to the surface, putting gold literally within reach for

D 中, 并列地是erosion, prehistoric glacier movement 和 volcanic activity, 事实上,这里要强调地是古老的含金量极高的河床被(火山活动)推到地表, 其实提不提到火山活动都无关紧要,和 erosion, prehistoric glacier movement 一起起作用的是 河床位上升这个现象. 大家可以试着把火山活动去掉,意思能解释地通.

另外,D结构不严谨, since后面整个是原因壮语从句, 说的是A,B,C同时使得 淘金变得easier job. 但D 中的 逗号, 以及后面的 putting,无疑指出只有 (把河床抬高的)火山活动是原因. 而且前面的 erosion 和 prehistoric glacier movement  就成为断句.
