OG 13 p680 SC50
According to some analysts, the gain in stock market reflects 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.
作为非老美，还是不建议用时态作为split，毕竟有时会转进去，理解不了，还浪费时间。。。。不过就这道题可以好好理解下含义，而不是单看时态的语法：股市有收益反映了复苏的信心，即经济避免了今年早期所担心的衰退并会软着陆。过去完成时在这里，就是对应一个“在今年早期之前的时间都是很担心，到了今年早期就不再担心了。”
" many had feared earlier in the year" (Past perfect 今年早期之前很担心) ....... (past-隐藏信息：economy recovered,暂且认为是今年早期经济恢复 )....... "the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence" (present -现在我们有了信心) ...... "the economy will avoid the recession" (future-对于未来的展望和预测)。作者: captainer 时间: 2013-4-16 21:26
谢谢两位的解释。
发现考理解句义的时态的题还是挺多的（不幸的是还经常错）。
OG SC76题又是一道这样的题。
Combining enormous physical strength with higher intelligence, the Neanderthals (appear to have been equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their path), but their relatively sedden disappearance during the Paleolithic era indicates that an inability to adapt to some environmental change led to their extinction.
括号内是正确答案。
我原以为Neanderthals已经不存在了，所以应该用过去时appeared, 但是正确答案是appear to have been. 这个appear to have been 要怎么理解呢？现在appear以前have been，，，，我已经晕掉了。作者: wudishark 时间: 2013-4-18 06:24
