大全 696 aim at的问题

shijianfeile

696 The Baldrick Manufacturing Company has for several years followed a policy aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving the efficiency of its distribution system.

(A) aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving
(B) aimed at the decreasing of operating costs and to improve
(C) aiming at the decreasing of operating costs and improving
(D) the aim of which is the decreasing of operating costs and improving（A）
(E) with the aim to decrease operating costs and to improve

查了下以前的帖子，没有得到满意的答复。这里再问下。答案A，貌似有东西省略了？原句应该是什么？是a policy which aimed at么？还有，有人说这里aimed是被动式，感觉说不通啊。请NN指点！谢谢。

aim at sth（n.） 或者 aim at doing(gerund)
补全了应该是 ... a policy (which is） aimed at decreasing ... and

(aimed at) improving ...
体会一下 He aimed his gun at the enemy. 只能是He用gun瞄准了enemy。
这里的policy相当于aim的宾语(例中的gun的地位)。而aim的主语是前面的BM

Company。

感谢楼上的回答，自己又做了点功课，补充一下 -
当aim用作及物动词时，有两个意思
1.把...瞄准;把...对准掷向[(+at)]
He aimed the gun at the door.
他把枪对准那扇门。
2.将...针对;以...用于[(+at)]
This anti-smoking campaign is mainly aimed at young teenagers.
这场反吸烟运动主要是针对青少年的。

楼上给出的例子是第一个意思，原文应该是第二个意思，以用于。用法是 sth. is aimed at sth./doing sth.

这样一来原文就应该是一个定语从句省略了that is。

a policy aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving-- should be a noun clause

a policy( that is understood)

其实第一和第二个解释感觉一样啊，不过是把瞄准的意思给延伸了
