Answer: 我做题时选了A,排除C的理由是: C中的which指代了前面整个句子,即“对可捕鱼尺寸上的限制”contributes to...。而在T和G语法中,ETS较严谨的做法是which优先靠前指代--即指代最邻近的名词,按此原则,这里的which就指monfish,这在句意上不通。 A中将前面的情况用抽象词circumstance代替,我觉得更优,并且印象上在天山真题之类里也有过类似的情况。 Q41: When drive-ins were at the height of their popularity in the late 1950’s, some 4,000 existed in the United States, but today there are less than one-quarter that many. A. there are less than one-quarter that many B. there are fewer than one-quarter as many C. there are fewer than one-quarter of that amount D. the number is less than one-quarter the amount E. it is less than one-quarter of that amount 这题我选C。第一遍时的感觉。省略时用抽象名字that之类更好,而不能用these, those,这里many觉得和these,those属于同一类,因此更喜欢that amout。 欢迎指正! |
