53．In a 5-to-4 decision，the Supreme Court ruled that two upstate New York counties owed restitution to three tribes of Oneida Indians for the unlawful seizure of their ancestral lands in the eighteenth century． (A) that two upstate New York counties owed restitution to three tribes of 0neida Indians for the unlawful seizure of (B) that two upstate New York counties owed restitution to three tribes of Oneida Indians because of their unlawful seizure of (C) two upstate New York counties to owe restitution to three tribes of Oneida Indians for their unlawful seizure of (D) on two upstate New York counties that owed restitution to three tribes of Oneida Indians because they unlawfully seized (E) 0n the restitution that two upstate New York counties owed to three tribes of 0neida Indians for the unlawful seizure of Idiom + Rhetorical construction The underlined part of the sentence correctly introduces a subordinate clause with that to identify the Supreme Court's ruling．The idiomatic expression owed restitution to x for y is also correctly used． A Correct．This sentence properly uses a subordinate clause introduced by that；the correct idiom is used． B Owed restitution to x because of y is not the correct idiom；the pronoun reference there is ambiguous． C That is omitted．resulting in an awkward construction；the pronoun reference there is ambiguous． D Ruled on．．．that begins an awkward construction；the pronoun reference they is ambiguous． E Ruled on．．．that begins an awkward and imprecise construction． The correct answer is A． 我的疑问是,OWE为什么用过去时,起了什么作用?RULE后面为什么不跟虚拟语气用个SHOULD.我查过语法书，好象SHOULD可以省略。但是我做GMAT的题目发现,这种情况下的SHOULD GMAT里面都认为应该省略。不知道大家是否也得出这样的结论?有更好的解释吗? 请教.谢谢 |
