21、Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, are now drawing solid conclusions about how the human brain grows and how babies acquire language. (A) Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, are (B) Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood over the past twenty years, and are (C) Neuroscientists amassing a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood over the past twenty years, and are (D) Neuroscientists have amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, (E) Neuroscientists have amassed, over the past twenty years, a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood,
答案是A 我的解题思路 我在做题的时候觉得ADE没有明显语法错误。然后就不知道怎么去找语法点去排除选项了。 再看一遍觉得这是一个科学研究发现,所以觉得现在进行时有问题就把A排除了。 看DE觉得两个差不多,唯一区别在over the past twenty years.看不出来就瞎选了E。
看了OG的官方解释--- D.The final descriptor in present tense, now drawing conclusions...does not fit the opening clause, which is in present-perfect tense( have amassed a wealth...) and seems to modify adulthood. E选项的错误跟D选项类似。
我的问题: 1.所谓的科学研究什么的,它的时态不一定要是一般现在时么? 2、DE解释是不是说drawing与have amassed时态不符?如果这样的话,A也不符啊 3、over the past twenty years这个短语在使用的时候,在句中的位置变动会不会引起意思发生改变?
我觉得这个问题是这样的,E前面have amassed这个动作发生段在over the past twenty years,而后面的drawing前面有个now明显不是一个时间段的。 同时,-ing分词在句尾用逗号与主句隔开表示与主句动作同时发生,这就不合理了,所以凭这点我排除了E 大家来讨论讨论 前面NN们说的-ing不能伴随have done,今天学到一招~~有收获有收获~
