第10题偶也认为是D，大家快来讨论呀

digimager

第10题选D, 主动优于被动

第9题 的 do not always results from malice 应该表达为 does not alwayes result from malice

难道这样的表达也算对　？

yzlinlin

同意第10题的B。

How about E in Q10?

Marrow

10主动被动是一部分原因。caused by直接放在gymnast后面做啥？做它的定语？不通，能这样做状语？hoho,当然是d简洁正确。

非常感谢merit提供的思路，大家多多讨论！

另祝merit取得好成绩。

以下是引用yzlinlin在2003-10-19 18:36:00的发言：

第六题我选了d,错在哪里?
contact是名词对吗?directly修饰谁?

rogers_888

第10题我选e，d错在将句子的主从颠倒了，原句的意思是强调young female ballet dancers and gymnasts sometimes fail to maintain good eating habits，原句采用caused by语法上虽错了，但其用意明显是补充说明原因，其实e的they很明显是指代人，只要在逻辑上可以明显判断代词指代对象，就应考虑其它问题。
