OG-11^th，第45题

According to some analysts, the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a "soft landing," followed by a gradual increase in business activity.

(A) that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come

(B) in the economy to avoid the recession, what many feared earlier in the year, rather to come

(C) in the economy's ability to avoid the recession, something earlier in the year many had feared, and instead to come

(D) in the economy to avoid the recession many were fearing earlier in the year, and rather to come

(E) that the economy will avoid the recession that was feared earlier this year by many, with it instead coming

答案A，

好多疑问：为啥A中是过去完成时,后面为啥要用instead……都不知道从何问起了，望牛牛们能给些解答。

不是nn，但是试着说一下我的理解：

1.用完成时态表示fear recession发生于the gains in the stock market之前

2.instead：这里的句子结构是economy will avoid the recession。。。（that引导的是修饰recession的从句）and instead come in。。。所以这里的instead表明economy不会倒退，而会come in。。。

不知道说得对不对,见笑了

可为啥A就能比其它4个选项好呢？读起来还是挺别扭的

confidence that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a "soft landing," followed by a gradual increase in business activity.

confidence后面的that引导定语从句，定语从句里的parallelism的平行结构是：economoy will avoid the recession 与come in for 、、、，如果确定了定语从句，答案就只能在A D中选，明确了平行结构，则就只能选A了，其实，A中come前面的will省略了
