【考点】动词形式、※句子结构、惯用语、逻辑表达、简洁有效 动词形式-现在进行时,有些动词(表示状态或感觉的词,或者表示极短暂的动作)一般不用现在进行时,比如:declare, recognize 等,finish 是表示极短暂动作的动词,不用现在进行时态;表达平行意思的动词最好用一致的时态,除非有特别的时间标志。 ※句子结构,当句子中有现在分词结构时,注意是否该分词应该是原句的动词。 惯用语-介系词,increase to 是固定搭配,increase up to 是错误的,up 多余,应该去掉。 逻辑表达,现在分词结构在句尾可作定语修饰紧臨的名词,也可作形容词修饰整个句子,所以在这种情况下需要特别注意,通常优先作定语修饰名词,如果不符合逻辑,则是作形容词修饰句子,如果二者都能理解符合逻辑,则说明该分词结构有修饰歧义。 简洁有效-语意重复(Redoundency),rise 与increase 表达了相同的意思,只需要一个词即可,避免语意上的重复。 (A) 表示极短暂动作的动词finish不用进行时态,故现在分词结构应该改为子句形式作定语;现在完成时having earned与前面的时态不一致;increase to是固定搭配,up多余,应该去掉。 (B) 表示极短暂动作的动词finish不用进行时态,故现在分词结构应该改为子句形式作定语;整个句子缺少动词;finishing…, increasing…, rising…有平行的嫌疑,而且rise与increase语意重复(Redoundency)。 (C) 现在完成时having finished与后面的时态不一致;rise与increase语意重复(Redoundency)。 (D) either… or…连接的对象不对称,而且表达的意思也与原句有所不同;现在分词结构increasing有作定语就近修饰diplomas的歧义,increase应该是句子的动词;rise与increase语意重复(Redoundency)。 (E) 正确,who引导形容词子句,修饰名词students,平行动词finished or earned。
