4. The only way for growers to salvage frozen citrus is to process them quickly into juice concentrate before they rot when warmer weather returns.
(A)to process them quickly into juice concentrate before they rot when warmer weather returns
(B)if they are quickly processed into juice concentrate before warmer weather returns to rot them
(C) for them to be processed quickly into juice concentrate before the fruit rots when warmer weather returns
(D) if the fruit is quickly processed into juice concentrate before they rot when warmer weather returns
(E)to have it quickly processed into juice concentrate before warmer weather returns and rots the fruit
For parallelism, the linking verb is should link two infinitives: The only way to salvage... is to process（the way to…is to）. Choice A begins with an infinitive, but the plural pronouns them and they do not agree with the singular noun citrus. Choices B, C, and D do not begin with an infinitive, and all present pronoun errors: the plural pronouns cannot grammatically refer to citrus or fruit, nor can they refer to farmers without absurdity. The best choice, E, has parallel infinitives and uses fruit to refer unambiguously to citrus（如果用代词，可能会被理解为是juice concentrate，因此用the fruit好）. E also expresses the cause-and-effect relationship between the return of warmer weather and the rotting of the fruit; A, C, and D merely describe these events as contemporaneous.(还是逻辑意思问题)
E also expresses the cause-and-effect relationship between the return of warmer weather and the rotting of the fruit;
在并列中可以表示因果关系吗
并列表示的是单独的事情 表示先后前后顺序 或动作相反等等 伴随的动作才可以作为因果关系
不知OGE的这句话该如何解释
谢谢 |
