Q18

In contrast to environmentalists proposals to limit emissions of certain

pollutants, the administration proposed calling for mandatory restrictions of

only three such pollutants from power plants-mercury, sulfur dioxide, and

nitrogen oxides-and the plan would delay such cuts until 2010 or later.

A. administration proposed calling for mandatory restriction of

B. administration proposed a call for mandatory restrictions, including those for

C. administration, proposing mandatory restrictions on

D. administration’s proposal was a call for mandatory restrictions, which include

E. administration’s proposal would call for mandatory restrictions on

答案是d，我选e。原因如下：

1）此处考了and连接的平行结构。administration’s proposal would call for ...和the plan would delay ...感觉e结构更对称。

2）感觉d中restrictions, which include不如e的restrictions on简洁

望探讨！

d is kind of wordy, but this is a relative mistake.

There are two mistakes in e. 1 change the tense, so distort the original

meaning. 2. if we use 'would call for' in the first sentence, the word

'would' in the second sentence should be elimenated, and the second sentence

subjuc can be omitted because it represent the proposal.

Thus, the answer is d.
