12. The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival’s month.
(A) world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival’s month
(B) world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival’s month
(C) world when they proclaimed a sacred truce for the festival month
(D) world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival(C)
(E) world by proclamation of a sacred truce that was for the month of the festival
我看了以前的讨论,问题主要集中在C和D上:首先,有人认为此句用因果状语从句(for)比时间状语从句(when)好;其次,被动语态是否一定要明确动作的施动者;第三,C中的they语法上指代句子的主语games,而逻辑上只能指代states,这样以来是不是有引起歧义之嫌。大家在以前的讨论中只是提出了这些疑问,但没有一个明确的结论,请NN们帮忙分析一下吧,为什么是D而不是C,先谢了! |
