rising inventories, ________________ to productioncutbacks that would hamper economic growth.
D. if not accompanied by correspondingly increased sales, possibly leads
E. if not accompanied by corresponding increased in sales, can lead
E是正确答案
D选项根据主谓一致可以排除,但是D选项说:"correspondingly increased sales" is awkward and unclear.
但是我觉得D这样子讲还是是非常清楚的啊
那个,大哥,E选项打错了,应当是corresponding increases in sales。我个人的看法是:(1)原句的意思是说,增长的存货,如果不伴随着销售的增长,则会导致什么什么样的后果。强调的是这样一种增长,而不是increased sales(增长的存货,强调的是存货)。(2)E选项中是corresponding这样一个形容词修饰名词increase,而D选项中correspondingly作为副词只能是修饰形容词increased,不如E选项的表达清晰。
