Unlike many United States cities, where a river is no longer the focal point of urban life, the river in San Antonio winds through the middle of the business district, and the River Walk, or Paseo del Rio, is the city's most popular attraction.
Unlike many United States cities, where a river is no longer the focal point of urban life, the river in San Antonio winds through the middle of the business district, and the River Walk, or Paseo del Rio, is the city's most popular attraction.
(A) Unlike many United States cities, where a river is no longer the focal point of urban life, the river in San Antonio
(B) Unlike the river in many cities in the United States, which is no longer the focal point of urban life, in San Antonio the river
(C) Today the river in many cities in the United States is no longer the focal point of urban life, unlike San Antonio, where it
(D) In few United States cities today, a river is the focal point of urban life, but the river in San Antonio
(E) No longer do many cities in the United States have a river as the focal point of urban life, but in San Antonio the river 正确答案是E,我选的是D。答案的解释是 (D)去掉no longer,把全部否定变成部分否定,改变了原句意思。 (E)正确,but连接并列的分句,不需要形式上完全对等。 我觉得不信服。no longer虽然是全部否定,但它否定的是河流在部分城市生活中的地位,E选项中说in few cities河流是城市生活的焦点,句子意思并没有因为没有了no longer而有多大改变啊。请nn帮帮忙解释一下。谢谢O(∩_∩)O~

A:比较对象错误 B:the river特指错误;which错误地指代了US C:比较对象错误;the river in many cities in the United States is no longer the focal point of urban life好像在说某一个特定的river不再是很多城市life的focal point了 D:In few United States cities today, a river is the focal point of urban life, 这种反向的表达方式其实改变了原意。 表示在极少的cities里river是focal point(few),原句是说在很多cities里面river已经不再是focal point(no longer)
D选项我感觉读起来有些绕口,不是那么顺畅,但是找不出什么大的语法毛病,不过but后面直接跟了一个the river有点儿指代前面的a river的嫌疑,我感觉这里把the改成"a"更好一些; 另外but the river in San Antonio winds...总感觉没有but in San Antonio the river winds顺畅 其次,D中的In few United states cities today,这里是说今天或者现在几乎没有几个城市把河流作为城市生活的焦点,这里和原文中有些出路,因为题目中说“不再”表示一种持续的状态;而today感觉只表示一个时间点的
