Thanks again! yaoyao
1. The nineteenth-century chemist Humphry Davy presented the results of his early experiments in his "Essay on Heat and Light," a critique of all chemistry since Robert Bovle as well as a vision of a new chemistry that Davy hoped to found.
- a critique of all chemistry since Robert Boyle as well as a vision of a
- a critique of all chemistry following Robert Boyle and also his envisioning of a
- a critiques of all chemistry after Robert Boyle forward and also a vision of
- critiquing all chemistry form Robert Boyle forward ans also a vision of
- critiquing all the chemistry done since Robert Boyle as well as his own envisioning of
B与E中滴his指代不清，C与D中的FORWARD可以省略，意思与after, from重复，从句义上来说，后面一句是主句的同位语，而D,E改为分词形式，改变了句义，主语变成H.D这个人，SO，答案是A。另外要注意since的用法，BCDE中的表达均不如since then来得常用和简洁，一般口语中的ever since在G中ever可以省略.
You mean "sth since sb" is right? I guess the noun followed by "since Robert..." should be chemist but not chemistry.
2. Sulfur dioxide, amajor contributor to acid rain, is an especially serious pollutant because it dimidishes the respiratory system’s ability to deal with all other pollutants.
b. an expecially serious pollutant because of diminishing the respiratory system’s capability of dealing
c. an expecially serious pollutant because it diminishes the capability of the respiratory system in dealing
d. a specailly serious pollutatn because it diminishes the capability of the respiratory system to deal
e. a specially serious pollutant because of diminishing the respiratory system’s ability to deal
What is the difference in use between especially and specially, and between ablility and capabilty?
especially表示特别地，尤其地，可以修饰形容词，动词，同位语，状语，sepcially有一个意思也是特别地，尤其地，可以修饰形容词，但一般不修饰动词，同位语，状语，另外sepcially还有一个意思是特意地，专门地，此时与especially不能混用。
一般情况下，especially用于修饰同位语，动词，状语比较多，而specially常用于修饰形容词。
此例中两词可以混用。
不选A是因为所有格，应该用OF而不是'S。
另外，the ability to do sth是习惯用语，ability后不接其它介词 -- Do you sure about this?
So, D is the best, right? |
