大全829


[求助]大全829题
829. The speculative fever of the Roaring Twenties infected rich and poor alike; vast quantities of people were dangerously overextended, credit was absurdly easy to obtain, and most brokerage houses required only ten percent cash for stocks bought on “margin.”
(A) rich and poor alike; vast quantities of people were dangerously overextended
(B) both rich and poor alike; large amounts of people dangerously overextended themselves
(C) rich and poor alike; great numbers of people were dangerously overextended
(D) both rich and poor alike; vast amounts of people dangerously overextended themselves
(E) both rich and poor; great quantities of people were dangerously overextended
请问 A、E为什么不对?
alike /both区别
vast/great/large   amount/number/quantity 相互搭配关系
谢谢

这是一个历史遗留的问题。


both的用法,不用多说,路人皆知。
alike作为副词,used to emphasize that you mean both the people, groups, or things that you have just mentioned。例如:
I learned a lot from teachers and students alike.

一点小见解,具体的还是看2楼前辈们的解释,更好。

以下是引用orange2005在2006-2-17 12:01:00的发言:

我来尝试回答一下这个历史遗留问题,套用一句前辈的话“为了下一代”:

首先,大家要清楚的是当numbers of, quantities of, amounts of这些词的前面有限定词时,中心词是numbers,quantities,amounts等等,而不是后面修饰的如people等。所以这里是numbers,quantities,或者amounts被overextend了。

解决了这个问题,大家再来想一下这题的意思,就能明白为什么不能用quantities了。直译一下:人的数量被overextend了。

numbers是强调数,quantities强调量。中文看起来好像都是数量,但各自含义不同。是人的数,还是人的量?
