XDF蓝皮书《商学院入学考试指导》-语法练习精选 S:section
下面是我遇到的一些问题,有些答案很疑惑,请大家多多指教哦!
另外,上XDF发的蓝皮书和XDF补充练习是一样的吗?重新印刷的?
S 4-14 In December of 1987 an automobile manufacturer pleaded no contest to criminal charges of odometer tampering and agreed to pay more than $16 million in civil damages for cars that were test-driven with their odometers disconnected.
A. cars that were test-driven with their odometers disconnected.
B. cars that it had test-driven with their odometers disconnected odometers
C. its cars having been test-driven with odometers disconnected odometers
D. having test-driven cars with their odometers disconnected
E. having cars that were test-driven with disconnected odometers
答案是D,for是表原因,肯定是接句子,后面接having done? 有点不明白这个用法。如果damage + to + cars…是不是也正确呢?
S 4-18 The record of the past is always incomplete, and the historian who writes about it inevitably reflects the preoccupations of their own time.
A. the historian who writes about it inevitably reflects
B. the historian writing about it will inevitably reflect
C. a historian writing about it inevitably reflects
D. writing about it, it is inevitable for historians to reflect
E. historians in writing about it inevitable reflect
答案是E,后面的their也说明要用复数的historian,但inevitable是不是应该用adv. inevitably?
S 10-7 When drive-in were at the height of their popularity in the late 1950’s, some 4000 existed in the United States, but today there are less than one-quarter that many.
A. there are less than one-quarter that many.
B. there are fewer than one-quarter as many.
C. there are fewer than one-quarter of that amount.
D. the number is less than one-quarter the amount
E. it is less than one-quarter of that amount
给出的答案是C,4000后省略的是 drive-in,我当时选D,如果把less改为fewer是不是就优选于C了?
S 17-1 Building large new hospital in the bistate area would constitute a wasteful use of resources, on the basis of avoidance of duplicated facilities alone.
A. on the basis of avoidance of duplicated facilities alone
B. on the grounds of avoiding duplicated facilities alone
C. solely in that duplicated facilities should be avoided
D. while the duplication of facilities should be avoided
E. if only because the duplication of facilities should be avoided
给的答案是E,if only 和because可以连用吗,而且还加了情态动词should?我选的B,on the ground(s) of/that 因为, 以...为理由。
