以下是引用G-CRACKER在2004-10-6 12:02:00的发言:语法讨论: 两年中的最低点表达。 OG-SC-260 260. According to some economists, the July decrease in unemployment so that it was the lowest in two years
suggests that the gradual improvement in the job market is continuing.
(A) so that it was the lowest in two years
(B) so that it was the lowest two-year rate
(C) to what would be the lowest in two years
(D) to a two-year low level (E) to the lowest level in two years OG 答案为E. 不过我觉得D 也对。这里就有一个过于两年中的(最)低点表达的问题。 在OG-CR-166(逻辑题)的选项D中有一个关于十年中最低的表达: (D) The 1.2 percent rate of inflation last year represented a ten-year low. 欢迎各方发表高论!
 
I think E is the best answer, please note the subtle difference between
the "a ten-year low" and " a two-year low level". Low is used as a noun
in "a ten-year low", while Low is used as an adj. in "a two-year low level",
therefore, it is the best to use "the lowest" in the second case. |
