for rating 应该是 to rate

从语法角度讲，都有些别扭。A,B,E问题基本清楚，不懂的DX看前面讨论 D选线的表目的用了for ding，很恶心。 C更是用了be to do这种“貌似”主观将来的用法。 我本来选D。就是根据SC最高原则——逻辑意思。总不可能人家小行星自己要撞吧。 但是，仔细冷静后，正确答案就是C be是倒装的结果。正序分句：a particular asteroid or comet will be likely to collide with Earth. be likely to do sth。一个强大至极的表达——有可能性做某事。比D的will do更加的符合逻辑，完全符合SC各项指标。 本题对likely进行how，所以部分倒装，模拟了——be to do陷阱。专门杀高手。

D应该是对的。 In choosing between C and D, first consider the intended meaning. We're interested in the current likelihood that the comet/asteroid will strike Earth in the future.. In other words, How likely is it NOW that a comet/asteroid WILL STRIKE Earth? This distinction comes into play when you look at the verbs in C and D. Different verbs. C mentions "how likely a comet/asteroid will be". Nope. The likelihood is something that exists now, not in the future. (That's the definition of "likelihood": How probable does this event seem right now? There's no "future likelihood" here. In the future, the event either happens or doesn't happen.) D mentions the likelihood (as measured at present) that a comet/asteroid will collide (in the future) with Earth. That makes sense.
