以下是引用cuiyang在2006-8-11 0:38:00的发言:东方老师是这么讲的: "of all the vast tides of migration..."中"of all the..."意思是曾经发生的/所有的...,那么提出全是曾经发生过的进行比较时就自然要用过去式了. og11-23中有这个of all the的例子,是“所有的...”意思。 og23 Of all the possible disasters that threaten American agriculture, the possibility of an adverse change in climate is maybe the more difficult for analysis. (A) is maybe the more difficult for analysis (B) is probably the most difficult to analyze (C) is maybe the most difficult for analysis (D) is probably the more difficult to analyze (E) is, it may be, the analysis that is most difficult This sentence compares an adverse change in climate to all possible disasters, so the superlative form most difficult must be used in place of the comparative form more difficult. The sentence also uses two incorrect idioms: maybe should be replaced by probably, and the adjective difficult should be followed by the infinitive to analyze rather than the phrase for analysis.
