gwd-25-31 答案肯定错

Q31

New items developed for automobiles in the 1997 model year included

a safer air bag , which, unlike previous air bags, eliminated the possibility

that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated, and making an

already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

A.     inflated, and making.

B.     Inflated, so that it could make.

C.     Inflated and made.

D.     Inflated and make.

E.      Inflated to make.

 所谓的答案E。 E项to make表示目的。做了什么事情，目的是让passage 觉得汽车着火了。这叫什么逻辑。 我觉得C正确

make 和 appear 平行，

最佳答案应为 inflated，making，答案里没有，所以E最佳

建议LZ发贴前先查找下以前的帖子，都是讨论过的

我原来选D，仔细看看觉得E对。不知道这样理解对不对

eliminated the possibility
        that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated to make an

already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

这里 to make 是不是修饰possibility,eliminated the possibility to make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire, "that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated"用来说明是什么possibility

是道难题。就是考一个逻辑的联系。to make， lz这里最好理解为，导致了什么什么。表目的不是to的唯一解释。将inflate和make 并列，哪比得上，inflate导致make xx来得好。就句子的意思上，因果关系上，明显e好呀。

我赞成，本题考logical predication.

消除当气袋膨胀而出现烟雾的可能为了使已受惊吓的乘客。。。

..., eliminated the possibility that a burst of smoke would appear （when the bag inflated） to make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

同意"，making"的说法，那么说明大家也认同现在分词making做表结果的状语 。

这样一来，E当然最好to make做宾补表导致...结果。

而从the posibility that...后全是用来解释posibility: 气袋膨胀同时出现烟雾使得已受惊吓的乘客认为汽车引着了火
