答案E 这题,用shorten修饰requirement我实在觉得牵强,所以把shortens排除了,请问,此题为何选e, d 的错误难道是前人所说from to的顺序不能颠倒吗?
Intended primarily to stimulate family summer travel, the new airfare(主语), which allows both an adult and a child to fly for the price of one ticket(定语), also shortens(谓语) the advance-purchase requirement for family travel to a minimum of seven days rather than fourteen.
a minimum of 是修饰seven days 的,所以可用a minimum of seven days rather than fourteen,前后对比对象相同;而a seven-day minimum 结构中,seven-day 是修饰语,不能使用from fourteen to a seven-day minumum,因为前后对象不对等,前面是天数,后面是minumum,所以d选项是错误的,e选项正确。
