To develop more accurate population forecasts, demographers "have to know a great deal more than now about the social and economic" determinants og fertility.
A.have to know a great deal more than now about the social and economic
D.would have to know a great deal more than they do now about the social and economic
正解是D。对于A,我有两个不懂:1.为什么have前面要加would? 2.OG说A选项把knowledge和time做比较了,可是只有一个a great deal,后面没有跟of sth,那我就很自然的以为它是省略掉of sth了,所以看到后面的now,也就很自然以为now那里也是省略掉名词了,所以觉得这两个比较对象是可以被对比的。为什么这样不对呢?而且对于D选项,它也是a great deal 和 they do比较,为什么这两个就可以比较呢?作者: banglixing 时间: 2010-12-6 21:00
加would是因为不定式也可以表虚拟;这题关键是要搞清楚比较对象。
主谓宾的比较如这题。they would have to know...more than...they do now. 需要把比较对象的主谓补齐。
是将来they have to do与现在they do做比较。
而A,变成they have to do与now做比较显然不对作者: zhaoyiqing 时间: 2010-12-13 06:46
为什么不能理解成是省略呢?OG后面93题说Heating-oil prices are expected to be higer this year than last because.......
这个是对的,那than now 怎么就不对了呢作者: crystalbain 时间: 2010-12-13 19:55
a great deal做副词,修饰比较级more
