og180 置顶里面没有这个的体温

180. Quasars are so distant that their light has taken billions of years to reach the Earth; consequently, we see them as they were during the formation of the universe.


(A)  we see them as they were during


(B)   we see them as they had been during


(C)  we see them as if during


(D)  they appear to us as they did in


(E)   they appear to us as though in


A, the best choice, correctly employs the simple past verb tense to describe a past condition. Choice B inappropriately switches to the past perfect (had been); the past perfect properly describes action that is completed prior to some other event described with the simple past tense. Choice C presents a dangling adverbial modifier, as if during ..., that illogically modifies we see. D ambiguously suggests that the quasars appeared to us in the formation of the universe_ that is, as though we were present to view them then. In E, as though in distorts the meaning to suggest that we see the quasars in a hypothetical situation_ that is, that they may not have been involved in the formation of the universe.


我做的时候是选的D


ETS解释给了不选D的理由


但是没看明白

将D代入,

they appear to us as they did(appeared to us) in the formation of the universe,

所以ETS说as though we were present to view them then(in the formation of the universe).

意思就是,Quasars现在所呈现在我们面前的样子,就和数十亿年前它所呈现在我们面前的样子一样。所以,ETS说,这句的意思是,你在数十亿年前就看到这个quasars,而数十亿年后你再看到它们,它们看来还是一个样子。(有人可以活数十亿年吗?所以不合理)

顶actu. I always assume that "did" is "they were". I should put the verb of main clause in.

道理好象是懂了,可是就是不明白怎么样才能理解成actu gg 和 leeon gg们所理解的那样!好像总是似懂非懂!

og说as though we were present to view them then(in the formation of the universe).

then就是指quasars最初形成之时么?

似乎很难一开始就体会到他倒底是在说什么啊,郁闷呢!

把did所替代的动词appear代进去,就好理解了。我也是按中文习惯理解成“他们呈现给我们的是他们在形成初期的样子”,而不是英文的习惯”他们现在呈现在我们的就象他们在宇宙形成时呈现给我们的一样”,也就是说,没有充分理解这个did

actu的解释是没错,但这里的did不是错误指代吗?前面是appear,后面可以用did吗?
