句子开头是连词although， 则having recently 和 recently adding 不符合从句的省略形式，altough引导的都不是句子。

although后面不是一定要接句子，分词也可以og 158

C   "many restaurants" did not equal to " its"

D, E   "having recently added..." is not the action  of the subject" the restaurant company's sales"



In sum, the subject must parallel to the verb.

原来如此!!

不过我做这道题时候DE就是用ALTHOUGH后面加分句排掉的

其实应该用逻辑主语不搭配来排除

谢谢XXIAOYAN 帮我掌握了这个知识点

请问E哪里有问题啊？ 我觉得E挺好的，逗号前面是形容后面的

E的话，主语是sales，跟前面adding和having不符。

以下是引用丑得老婆哭在2005-9-6 23:52:00的发言：

B:未画线部分的sales用的是have declined与之对应的画线部分的sail也应该用完成时。

C：违反主动优先的原则；its不能指代所有格形式的company's中的company

D,E:除了和C一样的错误外还有：句子开头是连词although， 则having recently 和 recently adding 不符合从句的省略形式，altough引导的都不是句子。

Although the restaurant company has recently added many new restaurants across the country and its sales have increased dramatically, its sales at restaurants open for more than a year have declined.

为什么这里要用过去完成时？后面既然有说its sales have declined,那前面的have increased不是矛盾了吗，完成时表过去的动作持续到现在，怎么会上升和下降同时持续呢？而如果前面是过去时的话，上升就是一个纯过去的动作，下降则是近一年并持续到现在的动作 ，这样就顺上了。而时态保持一致的说法并不理解

although的从句省略形式的正确表达是什么样子的呢？

楼上的可能没注意

增加的和减少的不是一种东西

although tired,he was so happy that he could not go to sleep until midnight.
