According to some analysts, the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a “soft landing”, followed by a gradual increase in business activity.
A. that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come
B. in the economy to avoid the recession, what many feared earlier in the year, rather to come
C. in the economy’s ability to avoid the recession, something earlier in the year many had feared, and instead to come
D. in the economy to avoid the recession many were fearing earlier in the year, and rather to come
E. that the economy will avoid the recession that was feared earlier this year by many, with it instead coming
Correct Answer: A
我不明白OG上的一些解释：
1. B选项中what 为什么不能代替that ?
2. 为什么用rather to come 就是 dose not complete the second part of the sentence idiomatically?
3.OG说E中的 with it instead coming "ungrammatical"的原因it 指代不明嘛？作者: abixiaoxinyue 时间: 2011-8-4 20:26
首先what错是因为加了逗号，what是不能引导非限定性定语从句的。
另外与其不如应该是rather... than结构，如果单独使用是宁愿的意思，e.g. I'll never be dependent on anyone again. I'd rather starve.
with it instead coming这句话就是读不通嘛，哪有with后面还instead的……作者: michellehoS 时间: 2011-8-9 06:34
B那个选项句子成分都不完整作者: psychepsyche 时间: 2011-8-10 06:31
谢谢关于前两个问题的解释。
第三个问题with后面不能加instead，这种说法提醒了我想到BY上说的 ：介词后面只能够直接跟名词或者动词ING形式。
所以 with it 直接接代词本身就错了，我认为这样理解更好。
