: GWD3-Q4 : : A new hair-growing drug is being sold for three times the price, : per milligram, (as) the drug's maker charges for another product : with the same active ingredient. 先看看句意: 一個新的生髮水要賣三倍價,每毫克, (as) (這個價錢跟) 製造商charge 另一件含有同樣活性成分的商品(的關係) 看看筆記 倍數的用法: 1. three times as much/many as 2. three times the n. 3. three times what it is.... 4. three times bigger/higher than .. certainly, 比較的東西要平行 : A. as 沒找到 much/many as -> rule out : B. than 對像不平行 -> rule out 至此倍數的可能性就沒了,所以要趕緊想到可能不是考倍數用法,繼續看下去 : C. that 使用relative pronoun來說明the price 文法跟句意都可通 : D. of what 後面有一整個子句 必須用that來開啟 : E. at which "at" awkward, 後面的charge 固定接for 不知道誰要at which : : * GWD解答: D : * PP解答: C : : : GWD5-Q10 : : (Marconi's conception of the radio was as a substitute for the : telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is) : precisely the opposite, a tool for communicating with a large, : public audience. : : A. Marconi's conceptioin of the radio was as a substitute for the : telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is : B. Marconi conceived of the radio as a substitute for the telephone, : a tool for private conversation, but which is : C. Marconi conceived of the radio as a tool for private conversation : that could substitute for the telephone; instead, it has become : D. Marconi conceived of the radio to be a tool for private : conversation, a substitute for the telephone, which has become : E. Marconi conceived of the radio to be a substitute for the : telephone, a tool for private conversation, other than what it is, : : * GWD解答: E : * PP解答: C 看到instead和選項在此處作變化,我就先刪掉D E了 因為沒有保留這個語氣 (conceive of "to be" 也不對 片語是conceive of X as Y...) A的conception of ....was as.... akward 你翻成中文就知道了 C比B好的地方在於it有明確指代 它用that讓第一句的主詞感明確 用分號讓it明確要 對應上一句的主詞 B的which我覺得會讓讀者不確定要說明哪一個 就近原則是"a tool for private conversation" 但這樣會跟後面的句意不合 這題不容易 有請其他大大幫忙解釋、指正 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.119.232.107
teeed:感謝您詳盡的解答!不過GWD3-Q4這題還有個小疑問,為什麼D選項 10/27 20:16
teeed:of what不行呢?what後面也可接子句呀!what引導的子句當作名 10/27 20:22
teeed:詞連同of一起修飾前面的the price.還是說這樣就會變成前面 10/27 20:24
teeed:3 times (adj)和後面of what S+V (adj)重複修飾the price? 10/27 20:25
