182/7 Although Ms. Bakara had previously emphasized that she could not speak for other Black people, she ventured to do so on this one occasion because she firmly believed that many minority people, likely most ,would agree with her. Answer: do so on this one occasion because she firefly believed that many minority people, if not most, would agree. Doubt: “likely most”&“if not most”这两个东西影响我对整句话的理解,请问如何理解这两句话?
4月10号 195\3 During the Great Depression, industrial output fell by nearly fifty percent from its peak in 1929 down to its nadir in 1933. Answer: During the Great Depression, industrial output fell by nearly fifty percent from its peak in 1929 to its nadir in 1933. Doubt: 正确答案与划横线的句子只是差了“down”,这个我知道,因为fall本身就有“往下”的意思,所以“down”是多余的。但是我的疑问是“During the Great Depression, industrial output fell from its peak in 1929 to its nadir in 1933 by nearly fifty percent.”,这句话其实仅与正确答案调换了顺序,我感觉意思上没有大的变化呀?到底错在哪呢?
197/6 Corporations will soon be required to report to the government whether they have the necessary reserves to pay the pension benefits earned by their employees and that the information be published in annual reports to shareholders. Answer: earned by their employees, information that must also be published Doubt: “pay the pension benefits (which are)earned by their employees”,前面的考点是这样的,但是为什么要把“information that must also be published”这句作为独立的句子呢?这不成了有两个主语了,一个是corporations,还一个就是information?
198/9 The supply of oil being finite has become an economical and political consideration of the first magnitude for all modem industrial nations. Answer: That the supply of oil is finite has become an economic. Doubt: 以“that”为开头的句子,我忘了语法中把这个称之为什么了?好象是属于强调句吧,强调油的供给是有限的。。有限的。。所以“The finite supply of oil has become an economical”在语法虽然是正确的,但并没有正确答案所要表达出来的感情那么强烈,是我这样理解吗?
207/18 Automation has undermined the traditional position of labor as much by robbing workers of the special Skills that were once their most important strength than by the elimination of jobs. Answer: as by eliminating jobs Doubt: 题目意思我没有看懂,仅掌握技巧平行方法解题,“as much as”,因此答案正确,但为了知其然,知其所以然,请好心人帮我解释下这句话说的是什么,好吗? |
