标题: OG11-124请教 [打印本页]

作者: toneere    时间: 2009-11-11 20:29     标题: OG11-124请教

Canadian scientists have calculated that one human being should be struck every nine years by a meteorite, while each year 16 bulidings can be expected to sustain damage from such objects.

 

 B a human being should be struck by a meteorite once in every nine years.

C a meteorite will strike one human being once in every nine years.

D every nine years a human being will be struck by a meteorite.

E every nine years a human being should be struck by a meteorite.

答案时D,终于弄明白了。可是对于while 从句不明白,such objects代什么呢,从意思来说好像指代a meteorite,可是such objects 又是复数,难道指代scientists,可是明显不通呀?很苦恼! who can help me?

比较滑稽的解释,

题中指的是一个人中一颗流星,应该是一对一,所以buildings逻辑上就应对meteorites,否则就是一个流星打到一大片

Canadian scientists have calculated that every nine years a human being will be struck by a meteorite,
                while each year 16 buildings can be expected to sustain damage from such objects.

请问,黑体字部分如何翻译?such objects指代什么?

谢谢!

这个不是代词指代的问题。such objects就是指meteorites,逻辑上和16buildings对应。赞同123123

这句就是while引起一个让步状从,表对比。每9年有一个人被meteorite砸,然而每1年有16栋房子可能被砸。。。

such objects 应该对应meterorite, 这里意思是说同类(meterorite)事物。

while表对比,这道题重点在平行结构,句子结构要想同。such subjects 是比较笼统的说法,要从语意逻辑上理解,不用太苛刻。blogfish's  explanation sounds more reasonable

同意此类讲法。

可以看成是 such objects( like meterorite ) 像流星这一类的 objects.
