The government predicts that, for consumers and businesses that make a large number of long-distance calls, the Federal Communications Commission's recent telephone rate cuts will greatly reduce costs, though some consumer groups disagree with the government's estimates, suggesting they are too optimistic.

 

(A) The government predicts that, for consumers and businesses that make a large number of long-distance calls, the Federal Communications Commission's recent telephone rate cuts will greatly reduce costs

 

(B) The government predicts that costs will be greatly reduced for consumers and businesses that make a large number of long-distance calls by the Federal Communications Commission's recent telephone rate cuts

 

(C) The government's prediction is, for consumers and businesses making a large number of long-distance calls, costs will be greatly reduced by the recent telephone rate cuts made by the Federal Communications Commission

 

(D) For consumers and businesses that make a large number of long-distance calls, the government's prediction that the Federal Communications Commission's recent telephone rate cuts will greatly reduce costs

(E) For consumers and businesses making a large number of long-distance calls, the government predicts that the recent telephone rate cuts that the Federal Communications Commission has made will greatly reduce costs

选A没问题,但是我没找到不划线部分的they的指代。从意义上分析they似乎只能指代government但是这里明显是单数阿!

请教~ 谢谢!

C is ambiguous because it can read as:
- The government's prediction [that is costs] will be greatly reduced
by...
OR
- The government's prediction is costs [that will be greatly reduced
by...]

为什么语法注释上说
C 被动语态表达不清啊?

for consumers and businesses making a large number of long-distance calls

介词短语修饰 costs 合理
cuts 后接分词 made by the Federal Communications Commission 简洁
另外 The government's prediction  和 the government's estimates 平行

除了语法注解上说的 prediction 不及动词表达更准确,C 还有什么错误呀?

谢谢大家

我又仔细看了下,觉得还是应该指代government's estimates;因为suggesting是做disgree的伴随动作状语,而some consumer groups 是disgree得主语,主语本身不可能suggest他自己too optimistic

好像从意思上来理解还是觉得是some consumer groups

TOP

 government's estimates

TOP

是指代some consumer groups吧
