15. University of Warwick spends equal to 400 days on the reconstruction of its administration building.
A. equal to
B. an amount equal to
C. an equivalent to
D. an equivalent of
E. an equivalent amount of
提供者penny890504备注：同意。我刚刚去搜了一下equivalent的用法，作名词时我只搜到了接of。我认为equivalent (n.) + of + (adj.) 好过+ to。同意下面的解释。我考试的时候应该是错了。
→参考观点(mikiluang & me)：equal to前后须对等，amount只能指代不可数名词，而equivalent在不知道有固定搭配(或许有)的情况下是后跟of比to好。该题不是特别确定，有异议欢迎在后面跟贴讨论。(黄色部分为方便各位思考而后来添的，看的时候请不要记这些)作者: myice 时间: 2010-6-3 16:23

感谢提供者penny890504提供的来自GWD的原题，还有其备注：其他果然平行考的比例下降，而且强调对句意的理解。但总的感觉还是比较像GWD。所以不用害怕，扎实练好GWD就可以拿下。
→参考观点：A的whereas + (n.)缺少逗号后另一个名词的配合；C中unlike前后是两个名词，但是逻辑不并列，而且Unlike一般不用在句中(句中貌似用different from比较好)；D的they指代不清——按理说应该和Unlike后面的industries形成AB关系，然而按照代词指代常理上they居然直接指代industries，前后矛盾；E也有同样的错误，those指代不清。另外，as companies that compete用从句修饰不如as competing companies直接形容词修饰来的简洁。可能还有错误我即将考试一会看不出来请谅解。大家加油，其实我(zliycdr)考的时候就是这样了，长句全划线改错很多，只不过长划线的太难记住了。作者: myice 时间: 2010-6-3 16:23
17. 提供者penny890504备注：只记得要选有"to explain the inhibition of"的选项。无法利用语法，需要根据句意。
→参考观点：如果答案确认，则属于[固定搭配]x1。
