Not one of the potential investors is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were not to be concluded.

A. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were

B. is expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate Bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for penalties if the deal was

C. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement be signed by them with a provision for penalties if the deal were

D,E....

这题答案有说A有说C, 我对最后是否要用were, 及中间是否用动词原形觉得很迷惑,请大家帮助,谢谢!

答案是c吗?

如果是A的话, if the deal were是在that从句中, 意思不对. if 在这里是虚拟语气, 应用were配合

我觉得是A，看到c出现一个by them 我就觉得有问题。这里从句用了虚拟语气were。再说c项中 a merger agreement be signed 怎么理解？没有理由可以理解成省略should 吧？
不知道理解对不？谢谢

偶还是觉的是C,

C. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement (is to) be signed by them with a provision for penalties if the deal were, is to 对应if the deal were not to be concluded. by them的them指的是investors, 被动语态要知道动作的发出者是谁.

大家看呢?

为什么这题不选B？我觉得B更好。for也可以表目的。另外虚拟语气只能用were吗？

请指教！

我选A

B for 感觉没有 to 好

C 的 be 不知该如何解释

但不解为何A 中that 不放在 agreement 后面

怎么没DE

dreadpower · 发表于 2004-9-12 00:33:00

我选A

B中for不好，动作目的用不定式。they如果指代potential investors 意思不对。此外was错，虚拟用were

C觉得不对，主要是因为them指代potential investors整个句子意思不对了

此外，until a merger agreement be signed 似乎也不对

这道题确实很怪的一道题，在逻辑上not A until B，等同于，A only if B;这里面变换一下后面还有一个条件句，好像是条件句中夹杂条件句。不知道大家有没有见过相似的例句；

建议楼主将题目贴全！

这不知道是不是你说的“条件句中夹杂条件句”

A principle that, if established, justifies Jamie’s response to LACE>ArnoldLACE> is that an airline is morally obligated to compensate a passenger who has been denied a seat on a flight for which the passenger has confirmed reservations only if the passenger would not have been forced to take a later flight had the airline not overbooked the original flight。

太好了！谢谢你给的例子！找这句话说来这里C里的be signed 省略了would。应该只有C符合这点了！
