222.(GWD-12-Q14) In 1914 a total of 469,000 cars and trucks were produced in the United States, but in 1929 almost twice the numbers of trucks alone came off the assembly lines.
A.the numbers of trucks alone
B.that number of trucks alone
C.the number of trucks by themselves
D.as many trucks themselves(B)
E.as many trucks by themselves
题目释义:In 1914 a total of 469,000 cars and trucks were……,but in 1929 almost twice that number of trucks……
1914年cars和trucks共制造了469000辆,而在1929年仅trucks单独就有原来总数两倍那么多从组装线上下线。
选项分析:A.the numbers错误,twice后面要跟单数的number,即twice the number;但是改为the number后,指代特定的数字还是用that number更为明确
B.Correct;that number指代前面总和的469000,如果是the number,没有指代对象,似乎说是the number of trucks
C.the number指代不清;by themselves是指卡车出售时没有附带配件,即单车出售,与alone意思并不相同。
D.用as many trucks时,整个句子的意思是“1914年汽车和卡车一共生产了469,000辆,而1929年两倍的卡车下了生产线”,句子前后并没有直接逻辑联系,前面句子并没有讲卡车有多少辆;trucks themselves这样的结构(X itself)中,themselves反身代词是对trucks的同位语,表示强调是trucks而已,我们往往可以看作没有反身代词,就如同同位语往往与句子主成份无关一样。
E.as many trucks错误同D;by themselves错误同C DE选项中没有提到as many as结构不完整的说法,那么这样分开使用是允许的么? |
