而且C中明显有歧义， 结尾的holding到底表达

a law makes ‘holding gold。。。’ a crime for a citizen

还是

a law makes 'blalalalalal......' for a citizen holding gold(= who holds gold)

holding在这里可以做make的宾语， 也可以表示citizen的修饰语， 所以是有歧义的，是og里面最忌讳的

排除C了

问大家

gwd18 这句话在说什么？it 和that都指的是什么？

谢谢回答

应该是D.

gladys_gl

D. Because of a law passed in 1933 making it a crime punishable by imprisonment for a United States citizen to hold gold in the form of bullion or coins, immigrants found that on arrival in the United States they had to surrender all of the gold they had brought with them.

看了半天大家讨论，觉得应该是D。

这题有因果关系：Because of a law, immigrants found that........

因为有这样的一个法律规定，移民们才发现要上交所有他们随身带的黄金。

D。

C中的“a law”没谓语。

關於B, 大家的焦點都放在hold身上, 對句子的分析焦點也都放在劃線的半句話上. 可是如果我們把中間複雜的一大串字拿掉, 看一下整個句子的意思:

With a law... immigrants found...

with 成為immigrants的伴隨狀態, 顯然是illogical...我覺得這句可以直接從句意就排除掉了 (假如眼睛沒那麼尖沒看到hold的單複數問題的話...)

D。

C中的“a law”没谓语。

同意，c中A law..., immigrants found...这个句子是不完整的

不同意楼上观点，C中的表达是独立主格！

crackpot

B选项中，偶还质疑with的用法，OG-158中，ETS说with in choice A and Despite having in choice D confusingly suggest that United States citizens somehow possess，所以这里with显然表达不出因果的感觉来，一家之言，等待板砖

以下是引用tianwan在2004-6-21 22:29:00的发言：

B, With a law passed in 1993 that makes it a crime punishable by imprisonment that a United States citizen hold

Can the "hold" be pural to match "a citizen"?

看到这里，就可以结束B，D之争啦！～TIANWAN就是牛啊～
