According to some economists, the July decrease in unemployment so that it was the lowest in two years suggests that the gradual improvement in the job market is continuing.
(A) so that it was the lowest in two years
(B) so that it was the lowest two-year rate
(C) to what would be the lowest in two years
(D) to a two-year low level
(E) to the lowest level in two years
考点: 简洁有效（Rhetorical Construction）
1) so that可以修饰动作,但不能修饰名词,例: I stopped so that you could catch up.
(A) so that不能修饰名词the decrease
(B) 错误同A选项；lowest two-year rate改变了原意。
(C) would表现将来的某一种情况,而原句表现的是已经被大家所知的一个事实, 因此would的使用
不正确; to what would be…结构复杂
(D) two-year low level不符合习惯用法,且意思模糊
(E) 正确, 使用了正确的表达方式: decrease… to the lowest level
我选了C,in two years不是表示未来两年即将发生的意思吗? 词典例句 ur life situation will be improved in two years.
如果表示过去两年的最低点,是不是应该用the lowest level of the past two years?一直没明白,还请NN帮忙解答! |
