69... Although she had signed a pledge of abstinence while being an adolescent, Frances Willard was 35 years old before she chose to become a temperance activist.
(A) while being an adolescent
(B) while in adolescence
(C) at the time of her being adolescent
(D) as being in adolescence(E)
(E) as an adolescent
Choices A, B, and D are unidiomatic. Choice C is awkward and wordy; furthermore, the phrase at the time of her being adolescent suggests that Willard’s adolescence lasted only for a brief, finite moment rather than for an extended period of time. Choice E, idiomatic and precise, is the best answer.
想问B哪里错了?E又哪里对了?觉得OG的解释很不怎么样嘛!知道很简单可是不明白还请大家指点迷津![](/static/legacy-emoticon/Dvbbs/em07.gif)
