231. Ms. Chambers is among the forecasters who predict that the rate of addition to arable lands will drop while those of loss rise.
(A) those of loss rise
(B) it rises for loss
(C) those of losses rise
(D) the rate of loss rises
(E) there are rises for the rate of loss
我有幾個疑點
請教大家
1.當初我在考慮a/d
In A and C, the plural pronoun those has no plural noun to which it can logically refer
我在想those不可以指代lands嗎?
那麼中文翻譯變成了;當可耕地的損失增加時, 可耕地的新增率就會下降
按照邏輯上是說的通的
我目前想到的是,用文法來做;應要the rate與the rate平衡,所以選d
2關於e的錯誤
Choice E supplies the idiomatic the rate of loss but introduces it with the unidiomatic and wordy there are rises for
there are本身wordy之外
there are rises for....有這種用法嗎?
