求问句子的重心问题 有题~

Until recently, the Inuit people led a nomadic existence, sheltering in

igloos, the ice-block domes that are peculiar to north-central Canada,

and in structures made of stones, bones, driftwood, and skins. 

A  Until recently, the Inuit people led a nomadic existence, sheltering 

 

B  During recent times, the Inuit people lead a nomadic existence, sheltering. 

 

C  In the times that are recent, the Inuit people led a nomadic exis-tence, sheltered. 

 

 D Up until recently, the Inuit people, leading a nomadic exis-tence, have sheltered. 

 

 

E Until recent times, leading a nomadic existence, the Inuit people were sheltered. 

 请问各位一般怎末判断句子的重心到底在哪里呢？ 不是说一般A的中心是对的吗？（还是没有这个说法？）

困惑很久了 请大家帮忙~谢谢！

抱歉  不過我還是想繼續討論吧~

至於是答案B, 我想考點應該是 Until recently, 這代表到目前為止或一直到最近, 所以主要的動詞時態應該是完成式 sheltered,安全的躲在igloos.

所以 A 告訴你他想表達的是一直到最近, 有一直以來完成的意思.

抱歉 我一開始沒注意到, 不好意思~

谢谢你哦~不过那题选D。。。shelter是重点。

另外那两题我貌似都是凭借别的语法错误排除的而非看出句子的重心，我怎末知道作者着重想讲啥啊。。。

所以这种没有什么大的语法错误的（至少我看不出来的）迷惑选项我就排除不掉

HELP。。。。。。。。。。。

一般來說 A 會告訴你 重心 主詞 或是 時態 

少部份的題目 其A 選項跟正式選項的用字會不同  則是因為 句意 或語氣的恰當性

本題中 Iunit people 就是主詞 至於時態則要看 後面的原句來做判斷

我會選 B.
