OA 是 E 想问为什么that 是必须的 said 和 expected 平行 是哪里有错误?
og解析 Every clause needs a subject, either an overt subject or an understood subject (whose interpretation can come from a coordinated clause or some other nearby clause). In this sentence, the clause containing expected lacks a clear subject. The intended subject is motion picture industry representatives, but to clearly indicate that, the subject should either be repeated or be replaced with the pronoun they. Furthermore, piracy to increase with high-speed Internet connections that beconie more widely available is awkward, and it fails to clearly communicate the idea that piracy will increase as a result of high-speed Internet connections becoming available.
