18. There is a widespread belief in the US and Western Europe that young people
have
a smaller commitment to work and a career than their parents and
grandparents
and that the source of the change lies in the collapse of the
'work ethic'.

A. a smaller commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents

B. less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents

C. a smaller commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents

D. less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents
had

E. a lessening of the commitment to work and a career than their parents and
grandparents had

答案是D

此题A为什么错了呢 LESS OF不是跟 A SMALLER COMMITMENT一个意思的吗？！

我觉得不是D，D,E的had我觉得不对，应该是did

不过楼主，你的A，C是一样的啊

我觉得DE是did更好，是had的话，有had和没had，我还是选有的那个

另外，small/less commitment中间选，选less

在这里，用did 和 had 都一样。

因为此 had(verb) 非彼had(助动词）。呵呵。。

辣辣斑斑说的没错，在不能肯定要还是不要的情况下，选有的保险一点。呵呵。。

less 修饰不可数名词,few修饰可数名词

less 和 smaller 在此有何区别呢？

yangcy87 · 发表于 2007-4-17 23:06:00

less of 是修饰动词，同理，该句强调重点也是动词have，

是did是have不重要

大家还记得ACT 的OG里面，Never before had they confronted...than they confronted 的例子吧

还有人吗？？

less of同时修饰a commitment和a career.所以不能用smaller

不同时间对比,助动词不能省

呵呵.XDF老师上课是这样讲滴
