看到in that 和because的区别的帖子都是很久之前的了,虽然Ron也有讲关于两者的区别,但看到OG2017的解释有点困惑 OG2017 的第753题
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 答案
(E) world by proclamation of a sacred truce that was for the month of the festival
OG的解释
This sentence depends on using the correct conjunction to join two independent clauses. In that is a conjunction that means in asmuch as; because in that has largely gone out of use, it is considered stilted and overly formal. It also uses two words when one would do. In this sentence, the second clause explains the first one, so the conjunction for, meaning because, is the most appropriate choice for joining the two independent clauses of the compound sentence. Festival’s month is an awkward and imprecise use of the possessive; during the month of the festival is clearer.
(A) In that is stilted and overly formal.
(B) It is not clear who would be doing the proclaiming; a clause is preferable
to a phrase here.
(C) They is ambiguous, possibly referring to either the states or the Games.
The phrase truce for the festival month loses the sense that it’s to take place
for the duration of the month.
(D) Correct. In this sentence, the conjunction for joins the two clauses correctly and economically.
(E) Wordy and awkward construction.
所以现在如果选项出现了 in that,就不可以选了????
