Concerned at the increase in accident fatalities ---> modifies "LACE w:st="on">Tennessee"LACE>

"Concerning at the...", Tennessee adopts...???

--thanks--

今天第9次看这题时忽然觉得c有问题呀

C)  that parents restrain children under four years of age in a child safety seat

in a child safety seat 是单数，前面的 children是复数

逻辑意义上不就成了 把所有四岁下的儿童限制在一张椅子上了？不通呀

同问同问。单复数不一致怎么可以的？

根据朗漫得解释concern做动词是不能用被动得,所以这里应该是形容词concerned

修饰主语既然是形容词就是强调一种状态,而concerning是分词,强调动作.

分词修饰得用法如下

1.在句首表达得动作在主句谓语动词之前已完成,og44

2.如果是瞬间动词得分词形式,表示动作得多次性,比如knocking the door就是一直不停地敲门

3.如果是延续性动词则强调笼统的时间概念客观性

4.与形容词比更强调动作

所以我觉得这里不能改为concerning

再次看到这题,似乎有了深入得体会

这题体现除了了gmat sc矮子里拔将军得原则,既然五个选项都有in a child safety seat就当是ets得疏忽,忍了,当没看见

但要是选项种有得选项是in children safety seats就得考虑进去了.

就像火山在信里爆发一样.你觉得自己理解没歧异,ets说逻辑有歧义,你觉得有歧义,ets又觉得没有

Concerned at the increase in accident fatalities,

Tennessee adopted a child-passenger protection law requiring the parents of children under four years of age to be restrained in a child safety seat.

(A)  the parents of children under four years of age to be restrained in a child safety seat父母被限制,错

(B)  the restraint of parents父母被限制,错of children under four years of age in a child safety seat

(C)  that parents restrain children under four years of age in a child safety seat

(D)  that children be restrained under four years of age in a child safety seat by their parents (under four years of age修饰restrained,意思好像说被限制在四岁以下)

(E)   children to be restrained under four years of age by their parents in a child safety seat (under four years of age修饰restrained,意思好像说被限制在四岁以下)

不是NN,而且时隔一年....

我理解是D/E表达的是儿童被限制在四岁以下,而原文要求的意思是四岁以下的儿童被限制在安全座上.所以distort原义
