18. GWD31-Q18

According to a recent survey of municipal services, the city’s streets could be cleaner, its fire code be better enforced, and its crime rate reduced if the current administration improved its management practices.

B

A.
            
be better enforced, and its crime rate reduced

B.
better enforced, and its crime rate reduced

C.
could be better enforced, and it could reduce its crime rate

D.
better enforced, and its crime rate could reduce

E.
could be better enforced, and its crime rate reduce

可以这么省略么？我选的是c，至少没有大错吧

省略的原则是要省都省，不省就都不省。

C 中的and 后连接的句子和前面两句结构不平行。

According to a recent survey of municipal services, the city’s streets could be cleaner, its fire code be better enforced, and its crime rate reduced if the current administration improved its management practices.

C
            B

A.
            
be better enforced, and its crime rate reduced

B.
better enforced, and its crime rate reduced 并列句子中，be, become必须省略

C.
could be better enforced, and it could reduce its crime rate
its crime rate could be reduced

D.
better enforced, and its crime rate could reduce

E.
could be better enforced, and its crime rate reduce

在某些情况下,并列结构的第二个成分的谓语动词可以省略:两个句子并列,第一个句子含有be动词或者become,第二个句子中的be动词或者become必须省略,同时,一些重复的名词或形容词也必须省略.

例: Once the economic and social usefulness of the motor was demonstrated and its superiority to the horse proved, ... (proved 前省略了was)

要省全省,不省全不省...A的reduced 前面少be

怎么说呢。。。

我觉得A和B是一定不对的，因为streets能够被清洁，fire code可以被加强，但是crime rate怎么可以被减少呢。。。

只能说减少犯罪率而不是犯罪率被减少。所以三个动词在逻辑表达上不能同时并列并省略be，第三个动词前必须没

有be。

我现在做真是界面版得答案是D，那么来看一下C和D的区别：

C: could be better enforced, and it could reduce its crime rate
D: better enforced, and its crime rate could reduce

如果根据省略原则里要么全省要么不省来看，C应该是更合适的，但是后来想了想，C还是不对的，因为and后跟了

一个完整的句子，那么大结构上是两个句子的并列，在第一个句子中两个动词的并列，于是这么做首先改变了句子

的原意，其次前两个并列成分中间必须有and连接，所以C是错的。

D里面，三个名词+动词的平行，很工整，因为第三个动词从逻辑表达上看不能加be动词，所以不能不能与前面两

个名词共用could be，于是补出动词could。逻辑OK，表达OK，平行OK。

为什么crime rate不能被减少呢？reduce the crime rate不是很常见吗？
这个题目如果要平行的话，就应该像2楼说的：could be better enforced, and its crime rate could be reduced，但是没有这个答案啊~~
所以这里应该是独立主格吧。。。its fire code better enforced, and its crime rate reduced 伴随修饰the city’s streets could be cleaner~
