PP1－68 谢谢了

不再做懒猪

68. The Mississippi riverboat, which evolved from simpler steamship of the early 1800’s, became the dominant form of passenger transport on the Mississippi River. 答案： steamshipàsteamships

分析：单数可数名词不能单独出现。需要注意的是，transport这里作名词，有“运输工具”的意思

参考译文：密西西比河船，在1800从简单的汽船演变过来，成为密西西比河上重要的旅客交通形式。

为什么不选C， passenger transport 不应是复数形式么，且B与The Mississippi riverboat形式对成呀，谢谢le

The Mississippi riverboat 单数名词前有限定词the，所以可以存在。

但我第一次选transport的……现在明白了
