1.                            
The brochure notes that in the
seminar the importance that communication is a two-way process will be
emphasized.

(A) importance
that communication is a two-way process will be emphasized

(B) importance of
communication as a two-way process will be emphasized

(C) importance of
communication being a two-way process will be the emphasis

(D) fact will be
emphasized that communication is a two-way process and of importance（B）

(E) emphasis will
be that communication being a two-way process is important

B. but     A is also right?     同位语从句嘛

ecsniffer

1、the importance of something
                     the importance of regular exercise


2、同位语从句一般起解释说明的作用，这里的communication is a two-way    process 并不是对importance的解释说明。



3、importance后面一般不接同位语从句

Snazzy

以下是引用ecsniffer在2004-3-5 9:21:00的发言：
1、the importance of something
                     the importance of regular exercise ---- yes



2、同位语从句一般起解释说明的作用，这里的communication is a two-way    process
并不是对importance的解释说明。--- actually, it can. eg: That communication is a
two-way process is important.. well, u can say that communication is
important, of course.





3、importance后面一般不接同位语从句 --- just got it.我误入歧途了。

Snazzy

sniffer, look at the following example to see whether it is analogous to the one discussed above.

1.                            
The supply of oil being
finite has become an economical and political
consideration of the first magnitude for all modern industrial nations.

(A) The supply of
oil being finite has become an economical    
节省的    

(B) The finite
supply of oil has become an economical

(C) That the
supply of oil is finite has become an economical

(D) The supply of
oil being finite has become an economic。经济的（E）

(E) That the
supply of oil is finite has become an economic







questions:


1, which is important? -- communication or the fact that communication is a 2-way process


2, which is a consideration? -- the fact that the supply of oil is finite has become an exonomic.





what's the difference then

ecsniffer

snazzy，我终于明白你的意思啦，赫赫


后一个例子：用that引导的主语从句表示一个完整的意思the supply of oil is finite 是一个经济和政治的考虑。


前一个例子：我承认也是想表达“交流是一个双向过程”的重要性


但是问题是communication is a two-way process 没办法解释说明importance，相反，是一个从属关系，....的重要性被强调


B importance of communication （as a two-way process）


在B中as a two-way process作定语修饰communication，是可以被接受的。


then,snazzy, what is your opinion?

The brochure notes that in the seminar the importance that communication is a two-way process will be
emphasized.

(B) importance of communication as a two-way process will be emphasized

我在想B是否会产生一种歧义，就是the importance作为 a two-way process 将会被强调。

只有importance of的用法, 没有importance that的说法.

mm说的歧义有可能, 不过可以通过逻辑含义来判断出正确的含义.

looook

importance ＝ the quality of being important

那么可以推断出importance that的用法逻辑上不好，并且the importance of something的用法也是习惯用法。

对于本句，如果能选A的话，表示“communication is a two-way process”这句话表达的东西是重要的，而不是说明它的重要性。
而选B的话，刚好可以说明communication的重要性。

下面是从大全里找出的一些相关题

1.        Like other educators who prefer to substitute anthologies of short stories or collections of popular essays to dull “basal readers,” Ms. Burton emphasizes how important it is to enjoy good literature.

(A) to dull “basal readers,” Ms. Burton emphasizes how important it is to enjoy

(B) for dull “basal readers,” Ms. Burton emphasizes the importance of enjoying

(C) to dull “basal readers,” Ms. Burton emphasizes that it is important to enjoy

(D) for dull “basal readers,” Ms. Burton’s emphasis is that it is important to enjoy（B）

(E) to dull “basal readers,” Ms. Burton’s emphasis is on the importance of enjoying

2.        Scientific interest in providing suitable habitats for bottom-dwelling animals such as river clams arises not because they are important sources of human food but from their role as an integral link in the Aquatic food chain.

(A) not because they are important sources of human food

(C) not in that they are important as human sources of food

(D) not from their importance as a source of human food（D）

(E) not from being important sources of food for human beings

感叹:总是感觉语法无常态!太难把握啊!

我选了A,就是因为觉得B有歧义

携隐

除了importance of sth是习惯用法之外，我也觉得A和B实在很难分别。我理解原句的意思是想强调“双向交流”的重要性，而不是强调“communication”的重要性，所以选择了A。且同位语从句解释importance的内容是觉得没有错啊。

或者，ETS是认为B中的as介词短语是限定性修饰成份，没有这个修饰成份，句子意思就会改变，因此B的意思和A的意思没有大的区别。B是强调“一个双向交流的communication”的重要性，A是强调“communication必须是双向的”的重要性。可能从ETS的习惯角度讲，B更符合逻辑？
