885 Section 2-21

21. According to surveys by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, about 20 percent of young adults used cocaine in 1979, doubling those reported in the 1977 survey.

(A) doubling those reported in the 1977 survey

(B) to double the number the 1977 survey reported

(C) twice those the 1977 survey reported

(D) twice as much as those reported in the 1977 surveyE

(E) twice the number reported in the 1977 survey

答案 E 没有疑义, 问题是: 如果 A 中 THOSE 换成 THE NUMBER 或 THAT 可以吗?

应该可以吧


至少字面意思上看不出什么区别

这个问题我是这么认为的:double用作动词的时候,是强调动作的,是使之变为2倍的意思。如果在这个例子中,用doubling the number reported in in the 1977 survey, 就是说这个独立主格结构的施动者是about 20 percent of young adults,翻译过来,就是:20%的青年人使1979年调查的人数翻了一番。从逻辑上显然说不通。 所以,A中的those换成the number或that 也是不合适的

谢谢两位, 我再好好体会 hs 的意思, 关于 double 强调动作非常有道理, 逻辑上有问题. 不过, 对于 doubling .....的语法功能, 我有异义, 觉得应该是分词短语作为整个句子的伴随壮语. 此题我曾经毫不犹豫地选A, 因为OG上有类似doubling 的用法, 现在看了HS 的分析, 觉得两题还是有差异的. OG 如下:

49. The cameras of the Voyager II spacecraft detected six small, previously unseen moons circling Uranus, which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting the distant planet.

(A) which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting

(B) doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known to orbit

(C) which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known in orbit around

(D) doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbitingB

(E) which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known that orbit

The pronoun which should be used to refer to a previously mentioned noun, not to the idea expressed in an entire clause. In A, C, and E, which seems to refer to a vague concept involving the detection of moons, but there is no specific noun, such as detection, to which it can refer. Also in E, the use of the phrasing the number... now known that orbit is ungrammatical and unclear. B and D use the correct participial form, doubling, to modify the preceding clause, but D, like A, uses known as orbiting rather than known to orbit, a phrase that is more idiomatic in context. B, therefore, is the best answer.fficeffice" />

呵呵,谢谢wildwind的指正,doubling......这个短语不是什么独立主格结构,而应该事伴随状语,特此更正。


另外,你给的第二个例子,和第一个例子还是有所区别的。第二个例子用doubling是非常合适的,从逻辑和句意上看。

看来, 考试时每道选项都必须看, 否则易犯经验主义错误. 再次谢谢 Hs 和 Crossmoon.

这道题也给我们敲响了警钟,谢谢
