以下是引用cheeseberg在2004-6-27 5:56:00的发言:I am really wondering why nobody asks about this problem: Q20: Rivaling the pyramids of Egypt or even the ancient cities of the Maya as an achievement, the army of terra-cotta warriors created to protect Qin Shi Huang, China’s first emperor, in his afterlife is more than 2,000 years old and took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to complete them.
- took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to complete them
- took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to complete it
- took 700,000 artisans more than 36 years to complete
- 700,000 artisans took more than 36 years to complete
- to complete them too 700,000 artisans more than 36 years
The answer is B instead of C, but it is obvious that the correct form is " XXX took somebody some time to complete", rather than ".... to complete it". I don't know why there should be an "it" here.
今天自己复习这题,从Google上搜到如下文章

Like the Egyptian pharaohs, Shih Huangdi started to build his tomb the moment he became king and some 700,000 conscripts worked for 36 years to complete it.
但是题目中改变了写法,稍不一样。 |
