多谢leoozop 和 闹闹得解释。 新问题又来了：

fantasy06

请教prep SC:  V -- 正确选项  X-- 错误选项  多谢各位！

If current trend continue, by the year 2010 carbon emissions in the United States will soar to a level more than one-third higher than were those in 1990, according to official projections.

 

V will soar to a level more than one-third higher than that

X would sore to a level more than one-third higher than it was

X would soar to a level more than one-third higher than those

X would sore to a level more than one-third higher than they were

 请教：为什么不用虚拟？than 后面为什么不补出动词？than 后面分别什么时候用that, those, it, they?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the mid-1920s the Hawthorne Works of the Western Electric Company was the scene of an intensive series of experiments investigating the effects that changes in working conditions would have on workers’ performance.

X to investigate what the effect changes in working conditions would have on workers’ performance 这个选项哪错了，为何原句好？

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A study published in British Medical Journal showed that women who ate nuts more than five times a week were about one third less likely to suffer from coronary heart disease as those who ate no nuts at all.

 

X than women eating

V than were those who ate

为什么第一个选项错？

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The success of the program to eradicate smallpox has stimulated experts to pursue what they had not previously considered possible—better control, if not eradication, of the other infections such as measles and yaws.

V something they had not previously considered possible—better control, if not eradication, of such infections as

原句错在the other 吗？

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first pulsar, or rapidly spinning collapsed star, to be sighted was observed in the summer of 1967 by graduate student Jocelyn Bell, but the discovery was not announced until February, 1968.

X The first sighted pulsar, or rapidly spinning collapsed star, was not announced until February, 1968, while it was observed in the summer of 1967 by graduate student Jocelyn Bell.

这个选项哪不好？我觉得sighted比原句更简洁，to be sighted 在原句作什么成份？

此处不需要用虚拟，句型是：if...(一般现在时)+will...(一般将来时)，故此处只有A对。than后面不需要补出动词，因为这里比较的是level，that正是指代了level。这个。。。得看比较的是什么东东来确定than后面用啥，单数用that,复数用those,一般好像少用it和they吧...

In the mid-1920s the Hawthorne Works of the Western Electric Company was the scene of an intensive series of experiments investigating the effects that changes in working conditions would have on workers’ performance.

X to investigate what the effect changes in working conditions would have on workers’ performance 这个选项哪错了，为何原句好？

这个选项what从句缺少谓语，所以一定不对。

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A study published in British Medical Journal showed that women who ate nuts more than five times a week were about one third less likely to suffer from coronary heart disease as those who ate no nuts at all.

 

X than women eating

V than were those who ate

为什么第一个选项错？

因为不应该用eating去和ate比，时态不对称。这里women who ate和those who ate比，完美。

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The success of the program to eradicate smallpox has stimulated experts to pursue what they had not previously considered possible—better control, if not eradication, of the other infections such as measles and yaws.

V something they had not previously considered possible—better control, if not eradication, of such infections as

原句错在the other 吗？

这句感觉有点怪。。。不过两句相比起来，显然后面那句的such as用得更好。而且如你所说，这个the other应该不能修饰复数名词吧。。。

这个选项哪不好？我觉得sighted比原句更简洁，to be sighted 在原句作什么成份？

啊？？？真的吗？to be sighted对吗？汗，偶不明白耶。。。

多谢jojo, 果然是NN.  现在只剩两题待解决，请教：

X to investigate what the effect changes in working conditions would have on workers’ performance 这个选项哪错了，为何原句好？

这个选项what从句缺少谓语，所以一定不对。--- 再问：可是这个选项有谓语是would have ，还是不明白？

对不起，删不掉上面重复的话.  不好意思，还想请教compound interest rate, semi-annual compound interest rate 的公式？ 下面这题的解法看不懂？

67. mary has 2000 dollars half is saved in a simple interest rate, and the other half is saved in semi-annual compound interest rate of 8%. at the end of the year the interest earned from these savings accounts equal to each other. what is the simple interest rate.

1. 8.16

2. 8.23

3. 8.25

4. 8.45

My answer is 8.16. 

答案：8.16. （1+8%/2）^2-1=8.16% —— 感谢spring1206。大家考试时看清楚semi-annual compound interest rate是怎么描述的，回来再验证。

这个选项what从句缺少谓语，所以一定不对。--- 再问：可是这个选项有谓语是would have ，还是不明白？

这个题是大全的第413题,补充066,MM查过讨论没? 这个不正确的选项用的不定式, 偶觉得这一点已经不好了,因为这里不是表示目的,而是修饰,原句是现在分词后置定语修饰experiments. 不定式做定语是不恰当的.

既使有不定式做定语,修饰名词,也应该带有may,can,must,will等助动词的意思, 而investigate这个动作没有这些情态.

另外,what是多余的; changes前面缺少that,不符合标准书面语规范.

这个选项还有歧义存在,即n workers' performance可能修饰effects,也可能修饰changes,句子甚至可以看成(changes in working conditions)的effect on performance.

正确的逻辑意思应该是: 现象是changes would have some effects on workers' performance(changes have effects on performance), 调查的对象是effects.

以上是偶的笔记,大多都是抄来的,关于不定式作定语那段主要是tianwan的.

这个题的to be sighted真是怪怪的,可也觉不出有啥错误来,就理解成"被发现的"吧?

偶觉得句子是否简洁,这一标准要放在最后才能用,因为这不是区分正确与否的标准,只是区分是否最好的. 像原句, 除了这一点,没啥毛病了. 可是下面的句子有个大问题,就是while, while只有用在句首的时候才能作"虽然,尽管"的意思讲. 在句中时,意思就是"当...的时候,在...期间", 把这个意思用在原文产生矛盾了, 因为原文两个分句的时间是不一样的.

还有一点, star... was announced好像不太好.  而原句的discovery was announced更合逻辑一点.

 

fanfan偶的意见你只参考就好了,因为偶还没做过下面这道题,是现场思考的...

你快考试了,为你加油啊!

闹闹，你的语法造诣真是深厚，一看就是750+的水准，真可以去XDF当语法老师了！

既使有不定式做定语,修饰名词,也应该带有may,can,must,will等助动词的意思, 而investigate这个动作没有这些情态. ---
                    

不明白，举个例子好吗，不知道情态动词应该加在哪？

wei_wangyan

fanfan，都跟你说了，这都是偶抄来的笔记。其实关于不定式作定语，偶也不太理解。刚才查了查语法书，也没查出个所以然来。

偶上次是看的这个讨论贴，你也看看吧。
