[求助]大全459的疑问,请大家看看

Judge Bonham denied a motion to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of to confine them to a hotel.

(A) to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of to confine them to

(B) that would have allowed members of the jury to go home at the end of each day instead of confined to

(C) under which members of the jury are allowed to go home at the end of each day instead of confining them in

(D) that would allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than confinement in

(E) to allow members of the jury to go home at the end of each day rather than be confined to

正确答案E,但我觉得这里不定式有歧义- to allow members...也可以修饰Judge denied,也就是说Judge Bonham denied a motion in order to allow members...这样理解有什么错呢?为什么不定式这里一定是修饰motion的呢?

请大家指教

to allow members...难道不是修饰Judge denied?这样逻辑意思也说得通呢 如果想修饰motion应该会用that从句啊~

不是哦,OG的解释:the rejected motion whould have allowed them to do the first rather than to suffer the second.从这里就可以看出不定式是修饰motion的

郁闷呀...这道题到底应该怎么看呢...

刚刚看到这道题~我是这么理解的,如果是根据OG的解释~he rejected motion whould have allowed them to do the first rather than to sufferthe second.那让陪审团的人go home 当然要比confine them to a hotel ( suffer)要好了~不知道这么理解对不对,还请NN们指点!

以前的规矩是陪审团的每天不能回家,只能去酒店。
现在这个动议要求改变这个现状, 让陪审团的人每天可以回家。
但是这个动议被JB先生否决了。

与E项相近的A中间than先后前后的不定式短语to go home和to confine them to a hotel明显主语混乱不一致。
没有deny sth to do sth的搭配, to allow是修饰motion的

"The motion to ,,,,",saying sth about the goal of the suggestion,is uaually appeared in articles. So the "to" there is one part of the "motion."

顶楼上的,motion to 是固定用法,也可以用that引从句。见朗文:
suggestion at a meeting[countable] a proposal that is made formally at a meeting, and then is usually decided on by voting:

motion to do something/motion that
We will now vote on the motion that membership charges should rise by 15%.

此外这题没有必要纠结在意思上,通过rather than 的平行就能解题啊。
