E) by错, 没有表原因的意思。 答案是D,我选的C,不能理解其他选项分别错哪了……如果,A选项的its 1833 founding is unidiomatic,那D的为什么不是unidiomatic了?? -- by 会员 zhisnoopy (2010/8/31 12:52:07)
C主要是错在改变原意。 Oberlin College was a renegade institution WHEN it was founded changes the intended meaning of the sentence. The college was renegade because it had decided to accept both women and men - so in a way this act of accepting men and women made it renegade - something that has been expressed quite eloquently in D - it was RENEGADE IN DECIDING --- the prepositional phrase IN DECIDING acts as an adverb modifying the adjective renegade. 而A是错在its 1885 founding 有the institution had many foundings的意思 |
