以下是引用ecsniffer在2003-12-8 9:47:00的发言:6. Because paper of all kinds is the biggest single component of municipal trash, many municipalities have tried recycling to reduce the cost of trash disposal. (A) Because paper of all kinds is the biggest single component of municipal trash, many municipalities have tried recycling to reduce the cost of trash disposal. (B) Because paper of all kinds is the biggest single component in municipal trash, many municipalities tried to recycle so that the cost of trash disposal is reduced. (C) Because paper of all kinds are the biggest single components in municipal trash, many municipalities have tried to recycle to reduce the cost of trash disposal. (D) All kinds of paper are the biggest single components of municipal trash, and so many municipalities have tried recycling to reduce the cost of trash disposal. (E) All kinds of paper is the biggest single component of municipal trash, so many municipalities have tried to recycle so that the cost of trash disposal could be reduced. the key:A.帮我看看我的想法是否正确: 根据主谓一致的原则排除C和D( all kinds of+n.做主语谓语动词的单复数应该由of后面n.的单复数来决定的,对吧?)。 根据is reduced可以判断B选项中tried的时态错误。 E选项明显不如A简洁。所以选A。对不对? 还有个问题,好像在GMAT语法中不止一次出现and so结构,这里的so是不是应该理解为adv. 根据m-v词典 so adv.THEREFORE, CONSEQUENTLY (the witness is biased and so unreliable) 多谢了!
我记得上新东方时老师说paper是不可数n,所以做主语时谓语动词是单数;但all kinds of paper就成了很多种paper了,所以谓语动词该是复数呀。
paper of all kinds ---中心词是paper, 所以是is
all kinds of paper---中心词是all kinds ,所以是are.
不知道你说的“all kinds of+n.做主语谓语动词的单复数应该由of后面n.的单复数来决定的”是哪里说到的语法点,我都有点困惑了。但我记得看过很多不可数名词后面谓语动词用单数,而加了kinds of 之后谓语动词就变复数的。
请指正,共同讨论。 |
