问题1:看了许多讨论帖,我选的B,总结出 B选项 抛出may的原因不说 强调的重点在 polar ice caps and sea level 对不 而E选项前一个强调的重点是melting 我想问下那个melting做的是什么成分 我觉得”前面强调的是过程ing,后面自然就是结果a rise,这是一个逻辑思路的问题。前面导致后面,并不是一起发生的,所以不能够用同样的句式“ 这句话超有理对不 问题2:以下是他们的内容 WHY NOT B
he melting of polar ice caps and the rising sea level Melting :- Gerund Rising : Adjective.
E is parallel because of melting of PIC :- Prepositional phrase the rise in sea level :- Prepositional phrase. 完全晕菜~~什么介词短语啊??? 下面的评论还给了个perfect。。。。 这是对的吗?如果对的,那个好心人儿能给我解释下~~~非常感谢~~ 小女子先谢啦~~
Of the two types of gerund phrases, only complex ones can be parallel to action nouns. In a list of action nouns, a simple gerund phrase might be mistaken for something other than a noun. Wrong: The rebels demanded the withdrawal of government forces from disputed regions, significant reductions in overall troop levels, raising the rebel flag on holidays, AND a general pardon.
Withdrawal reductions, and pardon are all action nouns. Thus, you should not include the word raising by itself (it might be misinterpreted as a modifier). Rather, you should choose THE raising OF. Right: The rebels demanded the withdrawal of government forces from disputed regions, significant redyctions in overall troop levels, THEraising OF .the rebel flag on holidays, AND a general pardon. In any list of action nouns, always choose the complex gerund phrase (often with articles and the word Of) over the simple gerund phrase!
这样E选项是不是就有问题呢? 要用 the melting 。。。and a rising 才平行。
