是新人，求大神指点思路，这题我上来只能排除A，BCE为什么就wordy啊，还有做题时根本就感觉不出什么wordy的，有什么快速突破的方法么？感谢啊

stlibai

wow！最近讨论although 和even though好多呀，昨天有帖子，你可以翻翻

你知道排除a的话e不是应该一起排掉的么
b，c有being呀，意思都不通

stlibai

e也有being，都没有看仔细

这种最爽了，being being being的全错，当然being不是一定错，但是在这里是冗余的。
being对的情况就比较罕见和复杂高端了，你可以试试把being拿掉，如果意思没有改变就说明是冗余的吧我想。

umm，可以这么理解。。的确。。拿掉了不改变意思就redundant


存在一种情况：


the car was being pushed by us


这时去掉了being，整个句子也是对的。。但是绝对不能去掉（这里的being表示是的 过去正在进行的某一个动作；it is progressive，not simple past）

stlibai

嗯嗯,意思要对,如果拿掉being就不是进行时了

Ninasunyan

A是因为主语不平行，E不看being，怎么排除呢，答案只说wordy，不理解啊

stlibai

even with 没这种idiom吧,特别是在有even though的情况下，两个选肯定even though了
wordy=冗余
