GWD-18-18


Q18:


The first shots of the American Revolution, fired at Lexington and Concord.  Massachusetts, were, according to legend, heard around the world, but news of these shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days to reach Charleston, South Carolina.



A.     shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days


B.     shots that was sent by swift messenger took four days in order to reach New York City, and also another eleven days


C.     shots that were sent by swift messenger took four days to reach New York City and another eleven days


D.     shots took four days by swift messenger in order to reach New York City and another eleven days in addition


E.      shots took four days by swift messenger to reach New York City and another eleven days


我做的和答案一样,都是E。 但想问NEWS做主语,谓语应用单数还是复数?

by - prep. With the use or help ; Coming here takes 2 hours by bus, but just 1 hour by train.

这里不是表示运输工具吗?

可例子里面不是表示被动吗?

news (which sent )by swift messenger  中间部分省略掉可以吗?

我觉得这题没必要用被动. 主动sth takes X days by <some methods> to do 就可以了.

其实took messengers four days to reach NY更好. 但D和E都是by messenger. 就当by messenger是一种方法吧. 就像Building this house took 4 years by hand.
