A. it hampers the ability of some children for distinguishing discrete sounds and
words and, the result is, to make
B. that it hampers the ability of some children to distinguish discrete sounds and
words and, as a result, to make

words and, the result of this, they are unable to make
D. that it hampers the ability of some children to distinguish discrete sounds and
words, and results in not making
E. as to hamper the ability of some children for distinguishing discrete sounds

OG解释
Rhetorical construction; Parallelism; Diction
The sentence describes a hypothesized causal series: The fast conversational pace
impairs children’s ability to distinguish individual sounds and words, and this, in
turn, impairs their ability to make sense of speech. These two consequences, both
impaired abilities, are most clearly and efficiently expressed in parallel infinitive
phrases (to distinguish and to make). The explanatory phrase as a result before the
second infinitive clarifies the sequence. The term ability should be followed by the
preposition to, not for.
A. For is the wrong preposition to follow ability; the phrase and, the result is,
introduces a new clause which indicates that children’s inability to distinguish
sounds enables them to make sense of speech.
B. Correct. The two abilities hampered by the fast pace of conversation are
described with the parallel infinitive phrases to distinguish and to make.
C. The result of this is a new subject that grammatically requires a new verb; the
phrase is wordy and unclear.
D. This version of the sentence nonsensically suggests that the pace of speech
results in not making sense of speech, removing the children from the picture
as the ones who are affected.
E. The phrase is awkward, wordy, and unclear; for is the incorrect preposition to
follow ability.
我的问题
