小C 不是考完了嗎 ? 0.0

很不厲害的人來看看

A
B
B or D , I choose D
D

Is that correct?

不算厉害的，但是试一试

1。 A：at stake介词结构提前，后面全倒装，谓语形式和实际主语solvency一致，排除BC
there be+动作性名词的表达不够简洁有效，排除D
IF引导条件状语从句后面一般不跟 将来时，排除E
2。 D： 未划线部分的they在前文一定要有指代，而anyone，anybody是单数的，排除ABD
根据对过去的虚拟，选D
3。 D： 固定搭配：connection between ; between..and...连接对象要平行
4。 D：not only...but also...
B不好，1.does the preparation of不如prepare简洁有效， if the claims should be也不对，主句不是虚拟语气

1. Developing nations in various parts of the world have amassed $700 billion in debts; at stake, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.

(A) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is正确 考点：虚拟语气+倒装

(B) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, are
真正逻辑主语solvency，谓语应用单数

(C) should they repudiate a significant number of these debts, are
they 指代不清(debts,nations,various parts……)
倒装后真正逻辑主语solvency，谓语应用单数

(D) if there is a repudiation of a significant number of these debts, would be
if then构成if条件句，虚拟语气伴有时间退格特征

(E) if a significant number of these debts will be repudiated, is
if then构成if条件句，虚拟语气伴有时间退格特征


if条件句的虚拟语气退格：
if引导的条件状语从句较主句有时间上的倒退：
if 现在 then 现在or 将来（此时多表客观或极可能发生）
if 过去（此时be动词一律用were代替，if I were u……） then would/should/could/might……
if 过完（had） then would/should/could/might…… have

选A

2.If anyone at InterCom Financial Advisers would have anticipated, or even suspected, the impending sale of the Koniko kelp processing plant, they would have advised owners of Koniko stock to unload all shares immediately.

(A) If anyone at InterCom Financial Advisers would have anticipated
同理，主句would have,if 条件应该退格，过去完成时

(B) Had anyone at InterCom Financial Advisers anticipated
虚拟语气格式不完整

(C) If any people at InterCom Financial Advisers would have anticipated
同A

(D) If any people at InterCom Financial Advisers had anticipated
正确，主句过去将来完成时，if条件句退格：过去完成时，表与过去事实相反，符合正确虚拟语气格式

(E) If anybody at InterCom Financial Advisers anticipated
若主句would have改为一般过去将来时，则正确。


选D


3. If Dr. Wade was right, any apparent connection of the eating of highly processed foods and excelling at sports is purely coincidental.

(A) If Dr. Wade was right, any apparent connection of the eating of
1.主句一般现在时，if条件句必然一般现在时
2.was错。一般过去时的虚拟语气中be一律用were代替
3.connection of x and y breaks the idiom "connection between x and y"

(B) Should Dr. Wade be right, any apparent connection of eating
connection of x and y breaks the idiom "connection between x and y"

(C) If Dr. Wade is right, any connection that is apparent between eating of
that is apparent:
1.冗余 可直接用更简洁的apparent connection代替
2."that is apparent" indicates that there still exsists some connections that are not apparent,改变句子原意

(D) If Dr. Wade is right, any apparent connection between eating
正确 考点：虚拟语气+connection between习语

(E) Should Dr. Wade have been right, any connection apparent between eating
条件状语从句时态


选D

4.In the Soviet Union the attorney’s role is often played by the judge, who not only reserves time to hear citizens’ legal complaints and also prepares their cases should the claims be valid.

(A) and also prepares their cases should the claims be
breaks the idiom "not only……but also"

(B) but also does the preparation of their cases if the claims should be
1.does the preparation 冗余，一言prepares即可
2.if should be……then does 破坏虚拟语气

(C) and their cases are prepared if the claims are
breaks the idiom "not only……but also"

(D) but also prepares their cases if the claims are
正确 考点：平行并列+虚拟语气

(E) and prepares their cases if the claims are
breaks the idiom "not only……but also"


综上，to if or not to if，取决于：
1.if 条件句优于should ……be形式，更正式，表达更清晰，有点类似because和due to the fact that……都表原因但倾向使用because
2.当if条件句犯了不可原谅之正确性错误，如第一题所述，可退而求其次采用should ……be表虚拟语气


hope it helps!
