大全885-S13-2 对prefer的理解

Judge Lois Forer’s study asks why do some litigants have a preferred status over others in the use of a public resource, the courts, which in theory are available to all but in fact are unequally distributed among rich and poor.

(A) do some litigants have a preferred status over others in the use of a public resource, the courts, which in theory are available to all but in fact are unequally distributed among

(B) some litigants have a preferred status over others in the use of a public resource, the courts, which in theory are available to all but in fact are unequally distributed between

(C) do some litigants have a preferred status over another in the use of a public resource, the courts, in theory available to all but in fact are unequally distributed among

(D) some litigants have a preferred status to another in the use of a public resource, the courts, in theory available to all but in fact not equally distributed betweenB

(E) does one litigant have a preferred status over the other in the use of a public resource, the courts, in theory available to all but in fact they are not equally distributed among

这题根据名词性从句的陈述语序要求,可以排除A、C、E。问题是B和D的理解。看到D的Prefer to,很自然就选了这个搭配,但是答案是B。

这里,如果用B的逻辑就是some litigants prefer...over others 是some litigants和 other litigants之间的比较。而用D的逻辑就是prefer one status to another。不知道我这样理解对不对?所以就是D改变原意?

另外,D的not equally 和B的unequally,有差别没?

B比D好在3个地方:

1。some 对others, one 对another, 没有some vs. another

2.which从句比逗号+形容词修饰要明确得多。

3。are unequally 和not equally意思不一样。not equally改变原意。

prefered这里已经变化成了形容词,不用在后面加to了,这是ETS的险恶之所在。

D的话,其实是a preferred status to another,不知道这样算不算one对another? 

are unequally 和not equally意思不一样。not equally改变原意。

能不能解释一下怎么不一样?谢谢!

看了答案才明白preferred确实是形容词,我还傻傻的跑去找to,唉……
