以下是引用skyinseas在2006-6-25 13:00:00的发言: Reporting that one of its many problems had been the recent extended sales slump in women's apparel,the seven-store retailer said it would start a three-month liquidation sale in all of its stores. (A) its many problems had been the recent (B) its many problems has been the recently (C) its many problems is the recently (D) their many problems is the recent (E) their many problems had been the recent答案:A 我认为是选B,因为: 1 副词修饰extended ,形成adv+adj+n的结构。 这样就改变原意了,句子原意是让recent修饰sales的,而不是去修饰extended ,
2 我认为也可以认为在 retailer 说的同时,这个困难还是存在的,这样就可以用现在完成时了, 如果用现在完成时,那不就说明这个动作延续到现在了么。 大家看看,你们认为呢? 其实在这里我认为根据句子的意思,我觉得不能判断recent是修饰sales还是extended的 如果recent是修饰sales,就可以翻译成:最近扩大的销售下滑 如果是修饰extended,则翻译成:最近的扩大的销售下滑 仅仅根据题意是不能判断recent是修饰谁的, 倒是我觉得我认为这个题目用现在完成时的,因为report的主语是seven-store retailer ,这个修饰短语变成句子,就成为:seven-store retailer reported that, 那么后面必定接过去时或者过去完成时,这样就可以排除B了 |
