以下是引用qxlsh在2007-2-20 11:08:00的发言:对于作为民族、或者一个朝代的人作为一个整体来讲时,谓语要用复数。例如: 3. Greatly influenced by the Protested missionary Samuel Kirkland, the Oneida was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided with the colonists during the American Revolution. A. was the only one of the five-nation Iroquois League who sided B. was alone of the five-nation Iroquois League when they sided C. alone among the five-nation Iroquois League sided D. were the only ones out of the five nations of Iroquois League in siding E. only of the five-nation Iroquois League had sided
A: the Oneida表示民族时用复数概念, was应该是were B: was应该是were C: correct , the Oneida … sided with…;alone among the five-nation Iroquois League是修饰语修饰Oneida D: the only ones 应该改成the only one E: 修饰结构错误, only of用法不对,during应该用过去时而不是过去完成
注意:the Oneida表示一个民族时用复数,类似的词还有GWD考过的the Shang 老吴解释得好清楚,赞~~~ 我最近发现,在考主谓单复数的时候, 都能从不划线部分找到hint, |
