本人选择的是C,答案是A,
想请教为何选择A更加合适呢?谢谢啦~作者: linmeimei 时间: 2011-3-3 20:05
应该选E。A和C的each of which are 就已经错了。作者: hanlei84921 时间: 2011-3-4 06:43
EXCUSE ME, BUT THE ANSWER IS A AND THE PROBLEM WITH E IS THAT THE CHOICE USES THE WORD "WHENEVER"——是一个强烈语气表达,WHICH CANNOT BE ADDED OR DELETED. THERE IS NO WHENEVER IN THE ORIGINAL SENTENCE, SO THERE SHOULDN'T BE WHENEVER IN THE CHOICE.作者: hazardous 时间: 2011-3-4 21:41
trust me, the answer is E. and "whenever" doesn't have any sense of emphasis here. And I doubt your saying that "emphatic or emotional words" couldn't be added or deleted. According to my experience, you can even change the whole meaning if the original sentence is nonsense.
so, you two points should be reconsidered.
plus, this question is from PREP 08, you can check it.作者: hanlei84921 时间: 2011-3-7 06:49
OK. I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. THE GRAMMATIC STRUCTURES IN THE LATTER HALF OF A AND C ARE COMPLETELY WRONG, OUTWEIGHING OTHER PROBLEMS.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!!
