可是这道题为什么不能选C呢?作者: sayysong 时间: 2010-11-14 20:32
从语法角度,they指代前文出现过的人即women over the age of thirty. 所以不合逻辑作者: arthurman 时间: 2010-11-15 06:35
是说they可以指babies 也可以指women over the age of thirty,所以指代不清吗?作者: 卮言浅夏 时间: 2010-11-15 21:32
代词出错的概率比较高,they可能指代women over the age of thirty作者: yahooww 时间: 2010-11-16 06:42
...more babies were born to women over the age of thirty than under it.
这句比较的是年龄,30以上比较30以下,所以是it,指代the age of thirty。选they就变成了women 和年龄在比较。作者: arthurman 时间: 2010-11-16 21:01
我恍然大悟了。。。
