This sentence misuses the idiomatic construction prohibits x from doing y;an alternative construction with the same meaning is forbids x to do y.The verb from the first construction,prohibits,is incorrectly joined with the infinitive form required in the second construction,to accept.The correct statement is prohibiting landfills from accepting. A Prohibiting...to accept is not the correct idiom. B Prohibiting that…accept is not the correct idiom. C Correct.Prohibiting…from accepting is the correct idiom to use in t11is sentence. D Bans that...cannot be accepted is not a correct idiom;cannot following bans is not logical. E Bans that...cannot accept is an incorrect idiom;cannot following bans is illogical. The correct answer is C. D E中为什么cannot不能跟在bans后面? 是不是用了主动优先的思想来解题的呢 |
