13.   For all his professed disdain of such activities, Auden was an inveterate literary gossip.


(A) For all his professed disdain of such activities


(B) Having always professed disdain for such activities


(C) All such activities were, he professed, disdained, and



(D) Professing that all such activities were disdained
(E) In spite of professions of disdaining all such activities



Choice A is correct and idiomatically phrased. Choice B fails to express the sense that Auden indulged in literary gossip despite professing disdain for it. Choices C, D, and E do not establish precisely that Auden was the one professing disdain for literary gossip. The and in C makes the disembodied professions of disdain and the indulgence in gossip seem like wholly separate matters, and E is especially awkward. The question is of middle difficulty.

看了解释还是觉得不太明白,哪位NN能讲解一下吗,谢了先

这里就是for all是固定用法,相当于despite,inspite of。

为何说Choices C, D, and E do not establish precisely that Auden was the one professing disdain for literary gossip?

CDE不能清楚的表明Auden是disdain的动作发出者,只是说Auden professed, 只表明了Auden宣布了一个事情而已

我觉得D的错误并不在此

因为“宣称。。。是令人鄙视的”就表明了disdain本身也是他的态度,不需要再强调是他发出的了

关键的错误在于现在分词做状语时,它后面不能再引导一个that从句,也就是说professing that ...是不对的

这一点好象不能赞同:
OG11-11的题干就是:11.
Warning that computers in the United States are not secure, the National Academy of Sciences has urged the nation to revamp computer security procedures, institute new emergency response teams, creating a special nongovernment organization to take charge of computer security planning.

所以我觉得Choices D does not establish precisely that Auden was the one professing disdain for literary gossip这个说法不大明白.

目前最容易接受的解释还是: A项中的for all是个固定搭配, 表示in spite of, 有转折意味. 而D项没有强调出这一层转折.

请指教.

借用eaglesmile的一句话来说说我对D的理解:
我认为D错在使用了毫无必要的被动态,因为“宣称。。。是令人鄙视的”就表明了disdain本身也是他的态度,也就是说(Auden) professing that... 那么就是Auden对literary gossip表示disdain喽,没必要用被动了。

但 disdain 的用法不是:disdain(none) for 吗?
引自牛津高阶。。。
