[求助]大全840


大全840      The United States petroleum industry’s cost to meet environmental regulations is projected at ten percent of the price per barrel of refined petroleum by the end of the decade.


(A) The United States petroleum industry’s cost to meet environmental regulations is projected at ten percent of the price per barrel of refined petroleum by the end of the decade.


(B) The United States petroleum industry’s cost by the end of the decade to meet environmental regulations is estimated at ten percent of the price per barrel of refined petroleum.


(C) By the end of the decade, the United States petroleum industry’s cost of meeting environmental regulations is projected at ten percent of the price per barrel of refined petroleum.


(D) To meet environmental regulations, the cost to the United States petroleum industry is estimated at ten percent of the price per barrel of refined petroleum by the end of the decade.(E)


(E) It is estimated that by the end of the decade the cost to the United States petroleum industry of meeting environmental regulations will be ten percent


OG110


1.        It has been estimated that the annual cost to the United States of illiteracy in lost industrial output and tax revenues is at least $20 billion a year.


(A) the annual cost to the United States of illiteracy in lost industrial output and tax revenues is at least $20 billion a year


(B) the annual cost of illiteracy to the United States is at least $20 billion a year because of lost industrial output and tax revenues


(C) illiteracy costs the United States at least $20 billion a year in lost industrial output and tax revenues


(D) $20 billion a year in lost industrial output and tax revenues is the annual cost to the United States of illiteracy(C)


(E) lost industrial output and tax revenues cost the United States at least $20 billion a year because of illiteracy


OG解释: A, D, and E are awkward and confused because other constructions intrude within the phrase cost... of illiteracy: for greatest clarity, cost should be followed immediately by a phrase (e.g., of illiteracy ) that identifies the nature of the cost


请问两者有什么区别?

1)the cost (n.) to

2) under 840, in C:   the United States petroleum industry’s cost   is incorrect because   's   usually refers to a person or an animal that has life

个人看法:cost of sth to sb,of 紧跟在cost后面表达cost的nature.

但是大全中E这末做完全是未了避免to引起的歧义!E选项:

It is estimated that by the end of the decade the cost to the United States petroleum industry of meeting environmental regulations will be ten percent。如果我们把of/to的位置调换一下:

It is estimated that by the end of the decade the cost of meeting environmental regulations to the United States petroleum industry will be ten percent。

就变成了 the United States petroleum industry的regulation了!to serves cost or regulation?it's not clear.

另:ABDby the end of位置有误,容易引起歧义.C的时态有误!而且ABC’s的表达不够准确!

她的意思是to the United States petroleum industry

是修饰cost还是regulation,有歧义
