The results of the company's cost-cutting measures are evident in its profits, which increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after it fell over the last two years.
(A) which increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after it fell
(B) which had increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after it had fallen
(C) which have increased 5 percent during the first 3 months of this year after falling
(D) with a 5 percent increase during the first 3 months of this year after falling
(E) with a 5 percent increase during the first 3 months of this year after having fallen
其实整道题目并没有问题了,只是想求证一下自己关于这道题的理解
which后面的整个部分作为profits的定语,意思是profits在fall后的三个月内上涨了5%,也就是先跌后涨
然后注意到存在during the first 3 months和over the last two years两个完成时态的标志词,考虑完成时
使用完成时态需要一个持续到现在的时间段,该时间段:after falling就是作为过去的时间点(开始),3个月后的今天为现在的时间点(结束),因此用have increased而不是did
同时,至于had done要求的是过去的时间点(1)—过去的时间点(2),这里不存在两个过去的时间点,只有一个过去的时间点
然后我之前本想改成which have increased…after they had fallen over the last two years,但又发现改完后,没有过去的时间点作为参照了,after they had fallen也是作为一段时间而不能作为过去的时间点,所以也不对
求讨论
