GWD-10-Q8

Sulfur dioxide, a major contributor to acid rain, is an especially serious pollutant because it diminishes the respiratory system’s ability to deal with all other pollutants.

 

A.      an especially serious pollutant because it diminishes the respiratory system’s ability to deal

B.       an especially serious pollutant because of diminishing the respiratory system’s capability of dealing

C.      an especially serious pollutant because it diminishes the capability of the respiratory system in dealing

D.      a specially serious pollutant because it diminishes the capability of the respiratory system to deal

E.       a specially serious pollutant because of diminishing the respiratory system’s ability to deal

看了以前的讨论,可是争议太大了...

答案选A,我觉得A实在是不好,只有有生命的东西才能用这样的所有格啊.

我觉得C.在 GOOGLE上都有capability of .....in doing , capabitility to do 这样的用法．不过我记得石林语法里好象只说了

have the capability of doing 这种用法．

实在是很迷茫啊！！！！！！！！请求ＮＮ解释！！

非NN

LZ一定要改变对“只有有生命的东西才能用这样的所有格啊.”这个看法！

PREP上大量题显示 这种用法不能作为排除选项的依据  一时我找不到例子 找到了给你看

另，此题可以通过especially和specially的区别排除CDE

我期待你的例子．我一直拿这个作为判断标准．．．石林语法这样写的．．想想也觉得很有理．．．

我７号就考试了．．．郁闷纳．．．．

especially和specially的用法排除不了Ｃ呀．．
