60.




Mideast immigrants' rates of entrepreneurship exceed virtually every other immigrant group in the increasingly diverse United States economy.



(A) Mideast immigrants' rates of entrepreneurship exceed

(B) Mideast immigrants are exhibiting rates of entrepreneurship exceeding

(C) Immigrants from the Mideast exhibit rates of entrepreneurship exceeding those of

(D) The rates of entrepreneurship in immigrants from the Mideast exceed

(E) The rates of Mideast immigrants' entrepreneurship exceeds those of

正确答案C中的exceeding可以理解为分词短语修饰rates of entrepreneurship吗？为什么是ing形式，rates不会主动去exceed，是不是应该用ed形式呢？

周五要考了！

Immigrants from the Mideast exhibit rates of entrepreneurship exceeding those of...
这个句子不是没谓语么...

纠结于为什么要用EXceeding这种表达方式呢，我看主语换了直接排除了，，，呃，，，

exceed的逻辑主语可以是物的
给几个LONGMAN DOCE上的例句：
Working hours must not exceed 42 hours a week.
His performance        exceeded our expectations.
Indeed, at one point the peak of a worst case fluctuation actually

exceeds that of the best case.
LZ放松心态，祝考成功！

不对,,ＡＢ根本不能加these of  ,but in D ,必须加these of ，因为ＡＢ中前面的主语是　mideast immigrants  not immigrants~~~~

同意！！rate 主动 exceeds

with二

ls 的不对吧。这里就是rate 和rate 比所以要用those，those 指代的就是rate啊。ABD都是没有加those错，E是rates 和exceeds单复数不一致，所以只剩了C。

楼主，rate exceeds 确实是主动的呀，你看ADE里的哪个exceed用被动了？——就中文么也是今年的比率超过了去年的，超过是主动的，不必要被动的概念。另一个比率被超过了那才被动，很明显此句里做主语的比率是超过了另一方，不是被对方超过。

欢迎大家拍砖。

我觉得此题的关键是对称：

C：immigrants from the Mideast 对 every other immigrant group

而看其他选项和other immigrant group比的都是rate速度，所以是不对的


exceeding 是修饰 rates of en...
