In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting East African cave paintings.
(A) Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting (B) Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and by painstakingly documenting (C) Leakey was a contributor to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of (D) Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and her painstaking documentation of (E) Leakey's contributions to archaeology include discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of
Correct answer:D
My answer:C
我查了网上的一些讨论,对于以下几个问题有疑惑:
1. D选项中her是否存在指代问题?(这是我首先排除D的原因)我认为:Leakey’s contributions to archaeology include her discovery...中her无处指代,除非改成Contributions of Leakey to archaeology include her discovery...则her可以指代前文的Leakey。
2. C选项Leakey was a contributor to A with D的表达是否存在A&D无逻辑关联的歧义。网上有一种解释认为She is a popular singer with a great voice.中voice与Singer无逻辑关系。同理,She is a contributor with a discovery也丧失了discovery与contributor之间的逻辑关系。
3.in addition to连接的两个句子,是否应该保证主语平行?网上有解释认为,由于题目前半部分in addition to接的是 her work,所以后半句应该要用her work的平行对应词为主语,因而可排除ABC。
后天就考试啦求NN们解答~!!
