og 28

28.   The rise in the Commerce Department’s index of leading economic indicators suggest that the economy should continue its expansion into the coming months, but that the mixed performance of the index’s individual components indicates that economic growth will proceed at a more moderate pace than in the first quarter of this year.

(A) suggest that the economy should continue its expansion into the coming months, but that

(B) suggest that the economy is to continue expansion in the coming months, but

(C) suggests that the economy will continue its expanding in the coming months, but that

(D) suggests that the economy is continuing to expand into the coming months, but that（E）

(E) suggests that the economy will continue to expand in the coming months, but

OG解释：In A, C, and D, the that appearing after but creates a subordinate clause where an independent clause is needed for the new subject, mixed performance.

想问牛牛， independent clause 加在什么位置，什么内容

independent clause可以理解为主句，dependent clause是从句。

这里明显是两个独立主句用but连接，A, C, D, 用了that将主句变成了从句。

搭车同问，这道题如果B选项的suggest 变成suggests，那么和E相比那个更好？

也就是两个语法点的问题：

1。be to do 和 will do 的区别

2。continue to do 和 continue + n. ( do的名词形式，这里是expand 和 expansion)的区别

忘高手指点

1. ETS不认为be to do是一种表达将来时态的比较好的形式. will do优于be to do.

2. continue to do是习惯用语，没有continue sth的说法.

两个主句间不用分号嘛?也就是but的前面,不是说两个完整句子间要分号的?

but带出转折从句，不用分号
