答案:D,我选了C
1。 seek support of , seek support from 哪个好? 2。 among Britain's first national museums / among the first of Britain's national museums 这个介词短语的修饰上有什么区别吗?哪个好?
第二题, support from/of 我觉得并没有多大区别,不过严格来讲,当然是正确选项里的比较好了。 本题主要还是要从among Britain's first national museums / among the first of Britain's national museums上考虑,这两个短语的意思是有差别的。 1)among Britain's first national museums:first修饰对象不明,是修饰作副词修饰natioina呢,还是作形容词与national一起修饰museums呢?不太明确。另外,first之前也应该加定冠词the. 2)among the first(museums) of Britain's national museums:“在英国第一批national museums中”
