以下是引用felix2816在2003-9-10 18:04:00的发言: 1.Framed by traitorous colleagues, Alfred Dreyfus was imprisoned for twelve years before (there was exoneration and his freedom). (A) there was exoneration and his freedom (B) he was to be exonerated with freedom (C) being exonerated and freed (D) exoneration and his freedom (E) being freed, having been exonerated
首先排除A、E,有明显的错误。B中使用了to be exonerated传递了将来的信息,同句子意思不符。D中有两个不好的地方,一是并列不对等,只用了一个his(尽管这里用这样的所有格来表达也不是十分理想);二是将划线部分意思结果化,而这里应该强调的是was imprisoned 和 being exonerated and freed之间的关系。
2.Several studies have found that the coronary patients who exercise most actively (have half or less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary). (A) have half or less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary (B) have half the chance, or less, of dying of a heart attack than those who are sedentary do (C) have half the chance that they will die of a heart attack, or less, than those who are sedentary do (D) are at least fifty percent less likely to die of a heart attack as those who are sedentary (E) are at least fifty percent less likely than those who are sedentary to die of a heart attack
这题没有什么可说的。首先排除A、B、C。D、E之间D中的less ... as错误,所以E。at least fifty percent是习惯用法。 |
