Laos has a land area comparable to that of Great Britain but a population of only four million people, many of whom are members of hill tribes ensconced in the virtually inaccessible mountain valleys of the north.
Laos has a land area comparable to that of Great Britain but a population of only four million people, many of whom are members of hill tribes ensconced in the virtually inaccessible mountain valleys of the north.
has a land area…but a population属于平行结构,people后面的定语从句修饰people
1、Laos has a land area… but a population…平行。--------2、比较结构前后对等
用that省略了land area不会显得重复,同时but和前面一部分是转折关系,没有逗号说明通用主谓语,many of whom指代正确。 考点:logical predication, grammatical construction. OG思路:比较的内容要平行,应该都是land area,所以后面的可以省略用that替代,同时注意两个句子的重点,明显是前面一句更重要,不要错误的也强调后面的句子了。 我的思路,忽略了land area of这个形式可以用that of这种形式代替。
that指代area, - many单独使用无指代,whom修饰宾语 4 million ppl
has a land area......but a population......是平行结构
that作为代词,指代land area,避免造成重复啰嗦;a population of 用法地道;many of whom 清晰的指出了与population的关系
认真读题,area与size在意思上是重复的,因此排除了相关干扰选项~~另外 注意but,but是一个并列词,but前后的词汇或者句子应该能够平行~~
but 平行
C中that引导的定于从句wordy,然后D中的and many后面是个句子,但是前面only four million in population是个短语,无法形成并列;注意此题中size和area是可并列的
Logical predication; Grammatical construction The comparison in this sentence is between the land area of Laos and the land area of Great Britain, not between the land area of Laos and Great Britain. The phrase about the population of Laos is most clearly and efficiently expressed in an appositive using a relative pronoun to refer back to people rather than the more abstract population. Using this construction keeps the appropriate emphasis on the two main claims being made about Laos, one describing its land area and the other its sparse population. A The comparison between land area and Great Britain is incorrect; where is an inappropriate referent to population, which does not designate a place. B Inappropriate comparison between land area and Great Britain; the there is . . . construction is wordy and imprecise. C The reference of them is unclear and the expression is generally awkward. D The coordinating conjunction and gives undue emphasis to the claim that many of the people in Laos live in inaccessible places. E Correct. The land area of Laos is correctly compared to that of Great Britain; whom refers appropriately to people.
population指人口,数量值 people指人 中心不同不重复
Laos has A but B 前後兩個A、B對象表達強烈對比
Lao has a land area.......But has a population 平行,抓住线。
