答案是C,我估计可能是出于平行的考虑,C确实是唯一在结构上平行的选择
但是对OG熟悉的朋友应该都记得,OG上有大量的题目,因为原选项遗漏了转折项而被为认定错误
在这里原选项包含了明显的转折意味,但是C中转折词被完全放弃了
而保留了转折词然而不够平行的D却被保留下来(D似乎没有其他语法错误,读起来也大致通顺)
这是不是意味着平行的意义要大于转折语义的保留?
意见仅供参考
这里D选还有一点错误是there be句型少选
这在prep的语法中有说明..
大家看看work的修饰对象,好象又修饰children的嫌疑,如何区分到底是修饰women还是children呢?
感觉只有C中worked做主语的谓语,说的过去,其他的都不太好。大家看看
除了c都无法解决歧义的问题,比如d
even though in 1975 there were about one-third of mothers with young children who worked outside the home, almost two-thirds of such mothers were employed outside the home in 2000 可以理解成为三分之一的母亲有在外工作的孩子
