Minnesota is the only one of the contiguous forty-eight states that still has a sizable wolf population, and where this predator remains the archenemy of cattle and sheep.
(A)that still has a sizable wolf population, and where (B)that still has a sizable wolf population, where (C)that still has a sizable population of wolves, and where (D)where the population of wolves is still sizable; (E)where there is still a population of wolves and where
答案是E ,可是我觉得D也是对的,而且比E对啊。 我记得老师讲过 there be 结构后面需要加一个非抽象的名词啊 而E中there is 后面加的是population这个抽象名词啊 求大侠帮忙解释一下~~~~
D选项语法上是正确的。但是如果少了WHERE, 后面的this predator remains the archenemy of cattle and sheep. 这句话在地位上就被抬高了。。因为作者的原意(一般A选项就是作者的原本意图)是把这句话放在一个WHERE从句里的,并列两个WHERE的成分。 如果用了D选项,那么THIS这句话的地位就被你抬高了,这改变了作者的意图。(从句的地位低于一个主句的地位)
