1. idiom: increase to

2.reference : which指代share，从未划线部分来判断，(which ranges) from obscure textbooks to mass-market paperbacks. which应该指代market

以下是引用古镯在2004-12-21 11:46:00的发言：

1. idiom: increase to

我觉得from...to...可以，这里说明to...from也可以，作为副词结构，increase的宾语应该是its share of the country’s $21 billion book market。而非increase to是习惯用语吧？

答案是 B 吗？

B不对的原因：from 6 percent to 10 percent its share of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges

which 指代不清：是前面紧跟的country,还是market或share.

但我觉得E也别扭，那位高手解释一下！

天使与海豚

E中的“its share of the country’s $21 billion”  使用了双重所有格，不是个好答案

agape0417

用google搜尋"country's" 似乎也可以,個人淺見...E...

E:to 10 percent from 6 percent its share of the country's $21 billion book market, which ranges from obscure textbooks to mass-market paperbacks.

我用我的見解還原為下

還原後 : from 6 percent its share of the country's $21 billion book market, which ranges from obscure textbooks to mass-market paperbacks, to 10 percent.

  為了符合英文由輕到重原則to 10 percent往前調

        E

        其实有个简单的思考：如果选B的话，那么D为什么错？？

        答案是比较出来的，我觉得E别扭的无非就是"to...from..."，但没人说这个不可以

        但是B，D是歧义

        比较歧义和别扭，我觉得歧义更严重一些，所以选E

D. in its share, from 6 percent to 10 percent, of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges

开始的in，你觉得放在这儿由问题吗？

例外，除了这个问题，D选项的答案从结构上说比较awkward。这个from引导的介词短语单独用逗号隔开的话，应该只能是修饰整个句子的，不能放到这儿。D和B有本质的差别。

请指教。
