[求助]关于比较中it/they的指代

看了语法知识点的讨论贴,还不是特别明白,尤其这两天在看prep的时候越来越混乱了。现把一些涉及到的题目,汇总如下:

正确选项:

(PREP1-27) Since 1990 the global economy has grown more than it did during the 10000 years from the beginning of agriculture to 1950.

(大全10) A large rise in the number of housing starts in the coming year should boost new construction dollars by several billion dollars, making the construction industry’s economic health much more robust than it was five years ago
(
大全299) Florida will gain another quarter-million jobs this year alone, many of them in such high-paying fields as electronics and banking, making the state’s economy far more diversified than it was ten years ago.

错误选项:

(大全168, A选项) Because the Earth’s crust is more solid there and thus better able to transmit shock waves, an earthquake of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it
                            
does in the West.

(PREP2-96) There are hopeful signs that we are shifting away from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels: more than ten times as much energy is generated through wind power now as it was in 1990.

(PREP2-131) Today's technology allows manufacturers to make small cars that are more fuel-efficient than they were at any time in their production history.

我之前的理解是it/they是精确指代,that/those是模糊指代。比如大全168的地震,就不能用it指代,因为it精确指代的是eastern的地震。但是象大全299这种,为什么就可以指代了呢?it不同样精确指代了现在的the state's economy么?

我觉得你的理解没错啊.不过我不愿意称之为精确/模糊指代,而更愿意称之为: 具体/通用指代。具体指的是具体某一个事物用it/they, 通用指的是同一个名词但适用于不同的个体事物,用that/those,他们指代的名词如,rate of increase 等。

具体看一下你的例子。 

正确选项:
      

(PREP1-27) Since 1990 the global economy has grown more than it did during the 10000 years from the beginning of agriculture to 1950.

前后都是 the global economy, 同一事物, it对

(大全10) A large rise in the number of housing starts in the coming year should boost new construction dollars by several billion dollars, making the construction industry’s economic health much more robust than it was five years ago

前后都是 , 同一事物 sth's ecomomic health, it对
(
大全299) Florida will gain another quarter-million jobs this year alone, many of them in such high-paying fields as electronics and banking, making the state’s economy far more diversified than it was ten years ago.

我觉得这道题也一样啊,前后还是the state's economy. 你可以想象成某人,如John, making John more diversifed than he was..., 正确阿。但是如果换成通用比较就需要不同的事务。如

making the inflation rate of US higher than that of UK. 此时, that 指代inflation rate,它是个通用名次,不是针对某个具体的十五,可能是US的,也可能是UK的,所以用that,不能用it.

错误选项:
      

(大全168, A选项) Because the Earth’s crust is more solid there and thus better able to transmit shock waves, an earthquake of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it
      
does in the West.

it指an earthquake in Eeast, Wrong.

(PREP2-96) There are hopeful signs that we are shifting away from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels: more than ten times as much energy is generated through wind power now as it was in 1990.

还没有做到prep-2, 还不想现在就看这两个句子。

(PREP2-131) Today's technology allows manufacturers to make small cars that are more fuel-efficient than they were at any time in their production history.

很同意楼上的分析,通用名词和具体名词的说法比较好理解.通用名词是不带限定修饰成分的通用概念,不论何时何地都是它,而具体名词则相反,指代具体事物且通常带介词结构等修饰成分,修饰成分不同则指代的事物不同.换了时间地点也不同

我看过PREP,我来说说楼上没看的那两题吧.

(PREP2-96) There are hopeful signs that we are shifting away from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels: more than ten times as much energy is generated through wind power now as it was in 1990.

it 指代的是划线部分,精确指代现在风力产生的能源. 原文的意思是:我们现在不再严重依赖石油了,(我们有其他能源方式了)通过风力产生的能源是过去(风力产生的能源)十倍还多,->注意过去和现在的产生的能源是不同的2拨.显然用it指代的逻辑意思不对.

(PREP2-131) Today's technology allows manufacturers to make small cars that are more fuel-efficient than they were at any time in their production history.

they指代的是small cars,同一批车,指代的结果是:现代科技能使同一批车现在比过去省油,而原文的意思是: 现代科技使得制造业能够生产比过去更省油的新车->现在生产的车比过去生产的车省油,2批车是不同的.

不知道我说清楚没有,舌头都快打结了.希望对你有启发.
