Q3:

Not one of the potential investors is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were not to be concluded.

 

1. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were
2. is expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate Bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for penalties if the deal was
3. is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement be signed by them with a provision for penalties if the deal were
4. are expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate Bank until it signs a merger agreement with a provision for penalties included if the deal was
5. are expected to be making an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for penalties if the deal were

答案是C，我选B。因为觉得deal应该用单数was。查旧贴说负数是因为”虚拟语气”。不解。请教。Thanks.

虚拟语气，当表示与现实相反的时候,从句谓语动词用were。具体的虚拟语气，可以看一下语法书。

况且，buying动名词没有动词buy好。

那A错在哪里？

A选项 is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were

that includes的结构错误，因为不知道that是修饰限制谁的，如果修饰 agreement ，应该紧跟其后，中间出现了动词is signed，这个结构看起来很奇怪，肯定错误：）

虚拟语气就不管单复数了吗?

就好比 If I were you,...

另我下过一个分析GWD SC的WORD文档，答案是A啊，而且分析说C的they指代不清。with不如that从句

A应该不存在指代不清吧？整句只有一个复数名词investors
