50
(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
(A) immigrants’ rates不能同other immigrant group相比.
(B) rates of entrepreneurship不能同other immigrant group相比
(C) 正確, 用those代替前面出現過的rates,比較雙方對應
(D) the rates of entrepreneurship不能同other immigrant group相比
(E) 使用雙重所有格,錯誤; 主謂不一致:主語是rates,謂語應該用exceed.
12. Unlike emergency calls that travel through regular telephone lines, where they thus automatically inform the operator of the location and phone number of the caller, cellular calls require emergency operators to determine the location of the caller.
(A) lines, where they thus automatically inform the operator of the location and phone number of the caller, cellular calls require emergency operators to determine the location of the caller
(B) lines and thus automatically inform the operator of the location and phone number of the caller, cellular calls require emergency operators to determine the location of the caller
(C) lines, thus automatically informing the operator of the location and phone number of the caller, the location of the caller on a cellular phone has to be determined by the operator
(D) lines, and thus automatically inform the operator of the location and phone number of the caller, emergency operators have to determine the location of the cellular phone caller
(E) lines, thus automatically informing the operator of the location and phone number of the caller, emergency operators receiving a cellular call have to determine the location of the caller
(A) 關系代詞where修飾lines,邏輯錯誤.
(B) 正確, and前后平行,travel… and thus automatically inform共同修飾calls
(C) 比較雙方不對等,emergency calls和the location of the caller沒有可比性; thus automatically informing表達錯誤,這里不應該用伴隨結構,而應該用and thus來連接兩個存在因果關系的句子
(D) and前面有逗號,說明and后面應該是一個完整的句子,應該補出主語they,但這樣會使得句子變得復雜,直接去掉逗號構成動詞的并列更好;比較雙方不對等,emergency calls和emergency operators沒有可比性
(E) 比較雙方不對等;句子不完整,整個句子的結構為:Unlike emergency calls…, emergency operators receiving…整個句子沒有謂語動詞; thus automatically informing表達錯誤,這里不應該用伴隨結構,而應該用and thus來連接兩個存在因果關系的句子

1)twice as many...as; twice as much...as; twice + the + n.; twice + what 從句
51
2)用動詞表達數 double, triple, quadruple, quintuple, 可用主動語態,也可以用被動語態,但不能和as 搭配
3)...times(或數字) + as + 形容詞或副詞 + as...或…times the + n
4) sb. be + 百分數 + more likely to do sth. than (to) do sth
(A) 正確,表達符合習慣用法,意思表達清晰,簡潔
(B) that只能指代rhino population,從而跟后面的their estimated population意思重復
(C) the population’s estimated amount表達笨拙,復雜
(D) 表達復雜,笨拙;their沒有指代對象。
(E) 表達復雜,笨拙,that指代rhino population和their population’s estimated amount意思重復;their沒有指代對象。
14. An international team of astronomers working at telescopes in the Canary Islands and Spain has detected at least 18 huge gas spheres estimated to have 5 to 15 times the mass of Jupiter, the solar system's largest planet.
(A) astronomers working at telescopes in the Canary Islands and Spain has detected at least 18 huge gas spheres estimated to have 5 to 15 times the mass of Jupiter
(B) astronomers working at telescopes in the Canary Islands and Spain has detected at least 18 huge gas spheres estimated to be 5 to 15 times Jupiter's mass
(C) astronomers is working at telescopes in the Canary Islands and Spain, having detected at least 18 huge gas spheres that are estimated at 5 to 15 times the mass of Jupiter
(D) astronomers, working at telescopes in the Canary Islands and Spain, and has detected at least 18 huge gas spheres estimated at 5 to 15 times the mass of Jupiter
(E) astronomers, working at telescopes in the Canary Islands and Spain, has detected at least 18 huge gas spheres they have estimated to be 5 to 15 times Jupiter's mass
(A) 正確, 句子結構簡潔, 意思表達清晰且用詞符合習慣
(B) the solar system's largest planet同位語結構無法修飾Jupiter's mass; 在gas spheres that are estimated at 5 to 15 times the mass of Jupiter比較結構中,gas spheres和the mass of Jupiter不對應,無法進行比較
(C) 更改了原句的意思working本來是修飾成分,用來修飾astronomers,在這里變成了句子的謂語,has detected本來是原句的謂語動詞,在該選項中做修飾成分,變成了附屬結構; spheres that are estimated at 5 to 15 times結構復雜,that are可以去掉; gas spheres和the mass of Jupiter不對應,無法進行比較
(D) and has detected沒有能夠與之平行的對象; 比較雙方不對應
(E) 隨意添加they改變了原句的意思, 原句并沒有說一定就是astronomers進行了estimated; the solar system's largest planet同位語結構無法修飾Jupiter's mass
