5．Out of America's fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone

styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed

sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.

(A) things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(B) things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing

(D) antique things have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(E) antique things has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

选A吗？A和D有什么区别？

Choice B is best. In A and D, have grown does not agree with the singular noun market. In addition, all of the choices except B use plural verbs after that, thus illogically stating either that bygone styles of furniture and fixtures, or fixtures alone, are reviving the particular pieces mentioned; it is instead the market for those styles that is bringing back such pieces, as B states. Furthermore, choices C and E, by using the verb form bring, fail to convey the ongoing nature of the revival properly described by the progressive verb is bringing. 明天考完多写一点JJ

这道题目应该选B 理由是

1 首先整个句子是一个倒装结构。从out of... 做句子的形式主语成分推出位于动词应该是用单数has

2 后面一句中的that实际上是在指代market一次。前面所有的复数形式的名词只是迷惑你的。

thing和something或者anything在语法中是一个特殊的词。在很多情况下是用后置的形容词来修饰。所以things antique是完全符合英语的行文习惯的。

不知道我这样的解释你有没有明白？

最后祝你明天好运！

谢谢dy和我的哈佛。

祝mioselle好运，别忘了回来写JJ。

很久没有原创的JJ了。
