OG162

    对于这题，有个疑问。为什么可以这样子搭配：children <-----> a child safety seat.  两者在数上不一致啊！

162. Concerned at the increase in accident fatalities, Tennessee adopted a child-passenger protection law requiring the parents of children under four years of age to be restrained in a child safety seat.

(A)  the parents of children under four years of age to be restrained in a child safety seat

(B)   the restraint of parents of children under four years of age in a child safety seat

(C)  that parents restrain children under four years of age in a child safety seat

(D)  that children be restrained under four years of age in a child safety seat by their parents

(E)   children to be restrained under four years of age by their parents in a child safety seat

      和上面类似的疑惑：为什么Neanderthals是复数，却和单数a vocal tract呼应？

167. Neanderthals had a vocal tract that resembled those of the apes and so were probably without language, a shortcoming that may explain why they were supplanted by our own species.

(A)  Neanderthals had a vocal tract that resembled those of the apes

(B)  Neanderthals had a vocal tract resembling an ape's

(C)  The vocal tracts of Neanderthals resembled an ape's

(D)  The Neanderthal's vocal tracts resembled the apes’

(E) The vocal tracts of the Neanderthals resembled those of the apes

谢谢！

再给出一个反列：这里ETS又开始强调数的一致了！！！

214. Although the term "psychopath" is popularly applied to an especially brutal criminal, in psychology it is someone who is apparently inca­pable of feeling compassion or the pangs of conscience.

(A)  it is someone who is

(B)   it is a person

(C)  they are people who are

(D)  it refers to someone who is

(E)it is in reference to people

E omits a main verb, such as applied, that, in grammatical context here, is required after is. Also, the word people incorrectly shifts number from singular to plural .

This question requires the correct placement of sentence parts to achieve accurate meaning and to avoid awkwardness. 这个才是此题的考点.

而且在五个选项都一致的情况下,就肯定是正确的阿.句意是最主要的.
