Q41:

The market for recycled commodities like aluminum and other metals remain strong despite economic changes in the recycling industry.

 

1. commodities like aluminum and other metals remain
2. commodities like those of aluminum and other metals are remaining
3. commodities such as aluminum and other metals remains
4. commodities, such as aluminum and other metals, remain
5. commodities, like the commodities of aluminum and other metals, remains

答案是e，那么c为什么错啊？谢谢指点

这里好像涉及到举例怎么举的问题，C中such as从后面的内容看是要举例commodities，但是如果直接放在C中这个位置，中心词是the market，因此举例举的不对。

但是E仍然有问题，xdf老师说过，like不举例，但是这里E就是举例了啊，真是怪了~

能明白的同学帮忙解释吧~

like为什么不能举例啊？

下面是金山里对like的一种解释：

Such as; for example:
例如；象一样：
saved things like old newspapers and pieces of string.
收集起来的如旧报纸和绳子之类的东西

此题考察的应该是ambiguity。就是说such as或者like后跟的例子是指market还是commodities。如果是举例market，那就是错的，因为aluminium and other metals不是market。如果是举例commodities就对了。(E)选项里明确指明了commodities，所以是对的。

My two cents...
