标题: OG 30 质疑ETS? [打印本页]

说句实在话,这道题我一直觉得有问题,既然现在大家要讨论,那就借此讨论个彻底!

What was as remarkable as the development of the compact disc has been the use of the new technology to revitalize, in better sound than was ever before possible, some of the classic recorded performances of the pre-LP era.

(A) What was as remarkable as the development of the compact disc

(B) The thing that was as remarkable as developing the compact disc

(C) No less remarkable than the development of the compact disc

(D) Developing the compact disc has been none the less remarkable than

(E) Development of the compact disc has been no less remarkable as

Besides being wordy, the clauses beginning What was in A and The thing that was in B cause inconsistencies in verb tense: the use of the new technology cannot logically be described by both the present perfect has been and the past was. In B and D, developing the compact disc is not parallel to the use of new technology to revitalize ... performances; in C, the best answer, the noun development is parallel to use. The phrases none the less ... than in D and no less... as in E are unidiomatic; the correct form of expression, no less ... than, appears in C, the best choice.

这里的better sound than,是比较,所以这里的better应该是副词,那么这样的话,后面的sound就不能为名词,而只能是动词或形容词,用在形容词这里明显解释不通,用作动词我觉得和前面的介词in又矛盾,因为前面的介词in限定了这里只能是名词或动名词,那么也就限定了better是形容词,那么这里的比较何在?如果改成sound better than ever before就能解决前面的问题。而且这时的主语就很明显了。

是从gwd-1-16的讨论引出的吧!

偶也看了前面的讨论,发现比较结构真的是很麻烦!想了一个上午,得出下面的结论,请大家一起讨论、确认。谢谢先!

1.关于助动词或介词的补出问题: 主句有介宾结构,则需要补出:1)助动词:表示主语的比较;或 2)介词:表示宾语的比较。 补出的目的是避免歧义:明确是主语与主语的比较或宾语与宾语的比较。

2. 关于助动词省略问题: 主语只有主谓结构,没有介宾结构。 省略的问题是简洁,前提是不会引起歧义。

根据上面两点,推出OG30需要补出助动词was。

OG30中better是形容词,sound是名词。
