2 108. (30099-!-item-!-188;#058&004651)错选B
In the United States, while the number of foreign-born residents and their children is higher than
ever, the percentage of the population they represent is not; in 1910 this group made up 35 percent
of the population when compared to 20 percent in 2000.
(A) population when compared to 20 percent in 2000
(B) population as compared to 2000, when it was 20 percent
(C) population, comparing it with 20 percent in 2000
(D) population, unlike 2000, with 20 percent
(E) population, compared with 20 percent in 2000
A. when compared的用法不对,compare动作的发出者是group,即主句的主语,此处不符合逻辑,
应该是35% was compared to…
状语从句中(如果其主语与主句主语相同)省略是个常见现象,从句中的一些词(如主语和系动
词)常可省略。
B. As compared to后面接的是年份:2000――将人口的35%与年份2000年相比,前后比较对象不
对等;it没有指代对象
C. Comparing为主动形式,用法错误;it没有指代对象
D. Unlike 2000的逻辑主语为句子主语this group,比较对象不对等。
E. 正确。
我的问题来了。B,as 。。。。看成是主语group发出的动作?也就是问,这种结构放在句末,是修饰相邻的名称及短语,还是做伴随状语的呢?
还有正确选项E,能不能修饰主语呢,做伴随状语。请大家忽略比较的主体,我就是想弄清楚句子修饰的主体,这道题只是个例子罢了,我懂得它们比较的错误。谢谢
