标题: [求助]PREP-50 [打印本页]

Many teenagers undergo stress, but results of a recent study indicate that the patterns of stress that
girls experience are more likely to result in depression than are those that boys experience.
(A) are those that boys experience
(B) what boys experience
(C) boys' experience would
(D) boys' stress patterns do
(E) stress patterns of boys

答案是 A

patterns of stress that girl experience和those that boys experience结构对
称. 但是这里为什么要把are 放在 those that boys experience 的前面呢,

不是应该是 patterns of stress that girl experience are more... than those that boys experience are 的结构吗?

难道是倒装吗?

(the patterns of stress that girls experience)相当于一个词
        are more likely to... than are those that boys experience

谓语动词是are但是这里are后出现了另一个名词depression, 所以为了防止与宾语比较混,要补出第二个are.这是比较补出的方法。those=the patterns

你说的顺序不符合主语比较时谓语动词的补充方法。具体可以参见OG10-119 224题

这里应该就是倒装 如果D中的do改成are应该也是正确答案

至于为什么倒装 不知谁能解释一下

谢谢楼上两位,还给我找出来相似的题目。番茄MM的记性真好,我都做过一篇了OG10 了,可是好像全忘光了。

刚刚有check 了一下 og 11 的紫皮,看了解释觉得好像是因为主语比较的时候太长了,所以用来倒装。

好像是系动词或助动词在这种情况下是可以倒装的。

下面是OG 的解释。

106Inuits of the Bering Sea were in isolation from contact with Europeans longer than Aleuts or Inuits of the North Pacific and northern Alaska.

(A)  in isolation from contact with Europeans longer than

(B)  isolated from contact with Europeans longer than

(C)  in isolation from contact with Europeans longer than were

(D)  isolated from contact with Europeans longer than were

(E)  in isolation and without contacts with Europeans longer than

Idiom + Logical predication

The construction in isolation from is awkwardthe idiomatic way to express this idea is isolated fromThe comparison is ambiguousit could mean the Bering Sea Inuits were isolated from Europeans 1onger than they were isolated from A1euts and other Inuits or that they were isolated from Europeans 10nger than A1euts and other Inuits were isolated from EuropeansAdding were after than will solve this problem

A  In isolation from is not the correct idiomthe comparison is ambiguous

B  The comparison is ambiguous

C  In isolation from is not the correct idiom

D  CorrectThe idiom isolated fore is correctly used in this sentencethe comparison is clear and unambiguous

E  In isolationwith is incorrect and confusingthe comparison is ambiguous

之前也很迷惑为什么E项中会引起歧义。目前有点思路了,欢迎各位nn指正。

the patterns of stress.....are more likely to result in depression than....

E选项中stress of patterns会和宾语depression有歧义

是这样吗??
