1. Although a surge in retail sales have raised hopes that there is a recovery finally underway, many economists say that without a large amount of spending the recovery might not last.
(A) have raised hopes that there is a recovery finally
(B) raised hopes for there being a recovery finally
(C) had raised hopes for a recovery finally being
(D) has raised hopes that a recovery is finally
(E) raised hopes for a recovery finally
A Subject and verb do not agree; there is is wordy
B Raised is the wrong verb tense; for there being is awkward and wordy
C Had raised is the wrong verb tense; for…being is awkward and wordy
D Correct. In this sentence, the subject and verb agree, and the verb is in the appropriate tense; a recovery is finally is clear and concise.
E Raised, indicating completed action,is the wrong verb tense; for a recovery finally is awkward and ungrammatical．
我不是很理解Ｅ中的for a recovery finally is awkward and ungrammatical．怎么awkward 又怎么ungrammatical？不是说动词短语优于从句吗？是不是for a recovery finally underway 有问题啊？
