(A) million, which is part of a deal that will make (B) million, a part of a deal that makes (C) million, part of a deal making (D) million as a part of a deal to make (E) million as part of a deal that will make 下面是对这道题目的解释 (A) which指代million错误。 (B) part of 表示是同位语,但 deal 与 million 不是同类,million 是个数字 number,它的同位语可以是 a number…。deal 是 business agreement,用它作同位语的可以是 agreement, contract 等;makes 一般现在时态错误,应该用将来时,表示将来的预期。 (C) part of 表示同位语,但 deal 与 million 不是同类,理由与选项 B 相同;分词的形式不能表达出从 句才具有的时态概念。 (D) to make 的修饰对象有歧义,原句是修饰 deal 的,但不定式的逻辑主语又可以是句子主语。 (E)正确,介词 as 引导的短语在句中充当状语,如同 The news comes as a shock. You need to be able to work as part of a team.中的 as 一样。这里 as part of…不是同位语,不需要去指代前面哪一个词或者 动作。 我有个疑问,这里的它这里说part of 是同位语,不能指代前面的句子,那我可以认为part of a deal作为前面整个句子的概括性同位语吗?如果这里没有part of, 直接是a deal that 就可以了呢?另外E中as引导的句子是不是作为的意思?如果是座位的意思,a deal还是不能和million对应起来的呀?
