PREP-149

estherpeter

149. Stock levels for domestic crude oil are far lower than in past years, leaving domestic oil prices vulnerable to any hints of oil supplies being disrupted in the Middle East or to any unexpected consumer demand growth possibly prompted by colder-than-normal temperatures.

A. leaving domestic oil prices vulnerable to any hints of oil supplies being disrupted in the Middle East or to any unexpected consumer demand growth possibly

B. leaving domestic oil prices vulnerable to any hints of oil supply disruptions in the Middle East
            or any unexpected growth in consumer demand that might be

C. leaving domestic oil prices vulnerable to any hints of oil supplies that are disrupted in the Middle East or to any unexpected growth in consumer demand as was possibly

D. resulting in the fact that domestic oil prices are vulnerable to any hints of oil supplies being disrupted in the Middle East or to any unexpected consumer demand growth possibly

E. resulting in the fact of domestic oil prices that are vulnerable to any hints of oil supply disruptions in the Middle East or to any unexpected growth in consumer demand that might be

A: being disrupted 的being 多余

B: correct

C: hints of supplies 改变了原意，are disrupted 不如disruptions符合逻辑意思；as was 没必要用过去时，as应该改成that，定语从句

D: resulting in the fact 不如直接用leaving简洁

E: 同上；fact of … 错

 

注意：

1、             being用法的几种错误标志，后置做定语

2、             might 和possibly意思相同，表达可能

3、             resulting in the fact that… 不如直接用分词简洁

4、             逻辑意思判断是用名词还是动词合理

B项的or后没有to对称吗？

我怎么觉得E更工整啊

自己顶一个。。。路过的nn指教一下

wei_wangyan

路过的，但不是NN。

偶觉得be vulnarable to sth.就是普通用法，后面跟的是两个并列的名词hints or growth（虽然看上去比较复杂），与常需用平行的not only... but also..., either... or...等结构不同。

E的result in the fact of错，如果把定语从句等修饰成分去掉，只余下result in the fact of price，不讲啊。

正确的形式应该是 the fact that+从句。

E. resulting in the fact of domestic oil prices that are vulnerable to any hints of oil supply disruptions in the Middle East or to any unexpected growth in consumer demand that might be

E是这个结构吧？

觉得ls关于B的这个解释可以说得通，虽然感觉还是挺怪的

E不是这个结构，that are...是prices的定语从句。

如果像MM所认为的，that是in the fact的同位语从句的话，那么请问that从句的主语是什么？

嗯 再看了一下 that是修饰prices的 是我没看仔细^^

为什么B中的to可以省略？leaving domestic oil prices vulnerable to any hints of oil supply disruptions in the Middle East
    or （to）any unexpected growth in consumer demand that might be？？？？？？？

OG11-115. George Sand (Aurore Lucile Dupin) was one of the first European writers to consider the rural poor to be legitimate subjects for literature and portray these with sympathy and respect in her novels.

(A)  to be legitimate subjects for literature and portray these

(B)  should be legitimate subjects for literature and portray these

(C)  as being legitimate subjects for literature and portraying them

(D)  as if they were legitimate subjects for literature and portray them

(E)  legitimate subjects for literature and to
            portray them

 

This phrase should have a parallel in to portray them with sympathy and respect. While it is not essential to repeat to, the repetition elegantly reinforces the parallelism.

 

由OG11的解释可见，介词是否补出并不是正确错误的标准，尤其是在没有歧义产生的时候，之所以补齐介词，只是为了更加强调平行。

我认为PREP这道题同理。

嗯..ls的mm说的有道理...赞一个

反省一下自己。
