大全695

这道题我也没有搜到

695。

1.        The average weekly wage nearly doubled in the 1970’s, rising from $114 to $220, yet the average worker ended the decade with a decrease in what their pay may buy.

(A) with a decrease in what their pay may buy

(B) with what was a decrease in what they were able to buy

(C) having decreased that which they could buy

(D) decreasing in purchasing power（E）

(E) with a decrease in purchasing power

我的问题是

1。OG（旧的）说

D misrepresents the intended meaning by saying that at the end of the decade, the average worker—not the money—was decreasing in purchasing power.

也就是说decreasing修饰的是worker,那么E中的with结构就没有可能修饰worker了吗

2。是money而不能是人decreasing in purchasing power（好像是不对，但不问不甘心

大家是怎么看的呢

Avantasia

没有看OG的解释, ABC的代词有问题, 排除; decreasing是个分词做为后置定语, 但是句意要求这里出现一个可以作为状语的结构, 只能是with才有这个功能了, 虽然可能有歧义, 但毕竟没有更好的选择了.

这点说的很好！

但是第二个问题？

Avantasia

购买力应该是指货币的吧, 贬值和升值都是货币购买力的一种体现.

确实，刚才搜了一下，看来购买力确实不能指人

谢谢
