(6) GWD-11-Q28:
In an effort to reduce the number of fires started by cigarettes, a major tobacco company is test-marketing a cigarette in which thin layers of extra paper are used to decrease the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, thereby slowing the rate at which it burns and lowering the heat it generates.
A. in which thin layers of extra paper are used to decrease the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, thereby slowing
B. in which they use thin layers of extra paper in decreasing the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, which slows
C. that uses thin layers of extra paper to decrease the amount of oxygen when it enters the cigarette, thereby slowing
D. for which thin layers of extra paper are used to decrease the amount of oxygen that enters the cigarette, and thereby slowing
E. using thin layers of extra paper in decreasing the amount of oxygen entering the cigarette, which slows
A (C)
...这个题...不算什么特别争议的吧... xiner能把大家争议的帖子贴出来么,我觉得选A是很明显的
B选项的they指代不明确,同时use sth. to do sth是一个比较固定的搭配,最后的那个which逻辑上指代的是前面这一套process,但是语法上指代cigarette,这里应该用伴随结果状语来替换,更何况不划线部分还有and lowering...这样的结构表示平行。
D选项中 that enters不如entering简洁,通常情况下定语从句表示一个单词性的事件,如果里面用一般现在时描述一个经常性习惯性的动作,就应该用ing分词定语替换,同时and后面用slowing 在and之前缺少一个名词性的平行结构
E选项中同样存在use sth to do的问题 应该使用to do而不是in doing,另外也同样存在which的逻辑指代和语法指代不一致的问题
C选项的问题在于 that uses 应该替换为using,同时原句中的entering the cigarette作为定语成分在这里则变成了when it enters作状语成分
这个更改时不合理的,简单说对于很薄的几层纸的使用只能减少进入香烟的氧气 不能在氧气进香烟的时候 减少所有氧气的含量 所以C是不正确的
