112. Domestic automobile manufacturers have invested millions of dollars into research to develop cars more gasoline-efficient even than presently on the road.
(A) into research to develop cars more gasoline-efficient even than presently on the road
(B) into research for developing even more gasoline-efficient cars on the road than at present
(C) for research for cars to be developed that are more gasoline-efficient even than presently the road
(D) in research to develop cars even more gasoline-efficient than those at present on the road
in research for developing cars that are even more gasoline-efficient than presently on the road
答案选D
问题1:但我觉得D 改变了原句even的位置。原句even than presently on the road 甚至比现在的车还好,强调现在的车。D中even more gasoline-efficient 强调更省油
问题2: lzm语法中说than 和 as 后有时可省略主语(参见og187)。不知112中A选项能不能算是这种省略形式
OG187. In one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War, fought at Sharpsburg, Maryland, on September 17, 1862, four times as many Americans were killed as would later be killed on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day. |
