That educators have not anticipated the impact of
microcomputer technology can hardly be said that it
is their fault : Alvin Toffler, one of the most prominent
students of the future, did not even mention
microcomputers in Future Shock, published in 1970.
(A) That educators have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology can hardly be said
that it is their fault
(B) That educators have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology can hardly be said
to be at fault
(C) It can hardly be said that it is the fault of
educators who have not anticipated the impact
of microcomputer technology
(D) It can hardly be said that educators are at fault
for not anticipating the impact of microcomputer
technology
(E) The fact that educators are at fault for not

Grammatical construction; Rhetorical
construction
Although it is possible to begin a sentence with
a subordinate clause beginning with that, this
inverted construction often results in errors such
as those found here. In the original sentence, the
subordinate clause that … technology is followed
by the main verb, can … be said, but then the verb
is followed by yet another subordinate clause, that
it is their fault. Th e best way to solve this problem
is by putting the sentence in the expected order,
with the main clause (It can hardly be said)
preceding the subordinate clause (that … ). For
greater clarity and concision, the two subordinate
clauses should be condensed into one: educators are
at fault for not anticipating the impact of
microcomputer technology.
A Inverting the usual order results in an
ungrammatical construction in which the
main verb is both preceded and followed by
a subordinate clause.
B Can hardly be said to be at fault does not
grammatically complete the subordinate
clause.
C Construction that it is … who have not is
wordy and awkward; it also distorts
meaning and lacks completion.
D Correct. Th is sentence has the main clause
followed by one subordinate clause correctlyintroduced by that.
E Th e fact is wordy; the inverted construction
does not successfully convey the meaning of
the sentence.
Th e correct answer is D.
还有上xdf时候老师说一句话中出现两个相同代词等于相同内容，那是否句子中有两个that的话容易造成歧义，故A不对呢
B的错误在哪儿呢
我在B和D l里面纠结了半天最后选的B，因为感觉it is that不是很concise |
