前两天在书上看到这样的一道题
As evidence of sushi's drastically increasing popularity, the most recent studies show that the number of sushi restaurants in the state increased by more than 3 times in the past 5 years.
A increased by more than 3 times
B increased by more than triple
C was increased more than 3 times
D has more than tripled
E was more than tripled
答案给出的是D,我当时看得时候觉得选A
后面给出的解释上写着 a number doesn't increase by more than 3 times.是说主语是数量,不能用increase by吗?应该可以把?那么是3 times有问题吗?
可能这不是一本像OG一样很权威的书,但是看到这题我就对于Increase,X times, double, triple 等的用法很是困惑,请帮忙解答一下可以吗?
谢谢!
这是一个更优原则吗?
不是two times之类的本身的错误吗?
这应该用完成式
D最简洁,符合简洁原则!
double ,triple等词只有主动。。。不能被动!
increase一般做名字的几率比较大,have an increase in sth
有点不太理解楼主说的话,可能是我太笨了……
我怎么觉得A的more than 3 times就是形容未划线部分的number的。
the number increased by 3 times这样的用法对吗?
再问!
