(E) Even without the aid of telephoto lenses, the visitor to Tanzania’s Lake Manyara Park has an unequalled opportunity to photograph lions playing in trees.
答案是E,但是我还是觉得不太好,without..介宾短语在句首,可以解释为“没有,用不着”,但它修饰的谓语动词是has,变成,“用不着望远镜,游客们也能获得这样的机会”,显然不是最确切。如果要更确切,我觉得应该是The visitors to..has an unequalled opportunity to photograph, even without the aid of telephoto lenses, lions playing in tress.
8. One noted economist has made a comparison of the Federal Reserve and an automobile as racing through a tunnel, bouncing first off one wall, then the other: the car may get where it is going, but people may be hurt in the process. (A) made a comparison of the Federal Reserve and an automobile as racing through a tunnel, bouncing (B) made a comparison between the Federal Reserve and an automobile racing through a tunnel, bouncing (C) compared the federal Reserve with an automobile as racing through a tunnel and which bounced (D) compared the Federal Reserve to an automobile racing through a tunnel, bouncing (E) compared the Federal Reserve with an automobile that races through a tunnel and it bounces
答案是D,可我也觉得不好。bouncing在这里就算作状语,也会有歧义的。可以看作是修饰前面的句子,那样逻辑主语不就变成economist? 也可以看作是修饰宾语的动词racing,逻辑主语是automobile,这么不清不楚的句子,让人很怀疑这真题到底有多“真”!
