大平行 +小平行   call …. 平行   attract，，acoustical signals平行 olfactory ones

 

2 逻辑意思  二级排除C

Choice C distorts the meaning of the original with its suggestion that male whistling moths call female moths to them both by using acoustical signals and by attracting their mates during the day. The insertion of using in not using olfactory ones is unnecessary.

(D)  had been as disturbing in his own time as it was

(E)   have been as disturbing in his own time as

1主谓一致/单复数   一级排除 A,C,D

Choices A, C, and D contain errors of agreement: the compound subject style and... choices of subject requires a plural verb and should correspond to the plural pronoun they, not it.

2 时态    二级排除 C ,D,E

his own times判断是过去式的标志

Further­more, C wrongly shifts to the present perfect tense (has been) to characterize something that happened in the past,

while D uses the past tense was to characterize something that is happening in the present.

In E, while the plural have agrees in number with the compound subject, the use of the present perfect tense (have been) is inappropriate for characterizing the effect of Eakins' work in his own time.

(E)   a Clean Air Act at least as strong as

1比较之比较词   一级排除A,B,D
                

Choices A and D require as strong as instead of as strong. èas strong as 要成对出现的!!Similarly, B is missing than after stronger, and so should be as.

2句子结构   一级排除C,D
                

In C and D, is should be dropped. Even with revisions, these choices are more wordy and awkward than the best answer.比较的不是句子, 不是主语, 不能加上is.

语法改正确了，也不是最爽的—选最好的，而不是选对的。

(E)   Tolstoi's rebellion, as Rousseau's, was

 

1比较之比较对象   一级排除A,B,D
                

In choice A, the best answer, a clear and logical comparison is made between Rousseau and Tolstoi.

Choice B illogically compares a person, Rousseau, to an event, Tolstoi's rebellion.

Choice D compares an implied action (As did Rousseau) with a noun (Tolstoi's rebellion).
                

2 词法 

as  连词，接句子Because As is a conjunction, it must introduce a clause; hence the noun Rousseau must have a verb

like 表示比较
                

3简洁
                

rebellion was against is less direct than Tolstoi rebelled against. Inserting did after As would make C gram­matical.

Tolstoi's rebellion... was against is less direct than Tolstoi rebelled against.

(B)   than any other

(E)   as are those of any

 

1比较之比较对象   一级排除A,B,C,E
                

It correctly compares Kroetz's works to the works of other dramatists.
                

Choices A, B, and C illogically compare Kroetz's works to any (other) contempo­rary German dramatist.

2 比较词
                than必须有

In E, the phrase more often must be completed by than rather than as. Also, the comparison is illogical; without other, E compares Kroetz's works to a group that includes his works.

最后强调一点，比较的时候，如果有可能包括自己，必须把自己排除在外，自己不能和自己比
