請問為什麼是weeks，不是week，還有(b)的 at which 的which代誰，謝謝
答案：(b)
If a human fetus were to grow throughout a pregnancy at the rate of between the fourth and eighth week, the baby would weigh over fourteen tons at birth.

(a)were to grow throughout a pregnancy at the rate of between the fourth and eighth week

(b)were to grow throughout a pregnancy at the rate at which it grows between the fourth and eighth weeks

(c)were to grow throughout a pregnancy at the rate of the fourth and eighth weeks

(d)should grow at the rate of weeks four to eight throughout a pregnancy

(e)should grow at the same rate that it grew between the fourth and eighth week throughout a pregnancy

were to grow throughout a pregnancy at the rate at which it grows between the fourth and eighth weeks

1. which代rate

2. the fourth week + the eighth week = 2 weeks.
見下面連結，注意introduction那段的第一句。
The structural development of the trunk occurs between the fourth and eighth weeks of gestation.

謝謝熱心的pufa如此快速的回覆，^__^，我後來想通了。
我認為which是指pregnancy，如果是rate的話 at the rate which就好了。

week的問題，還是不懂呀，between a and b，a、b不是獨立的嗎，為什麼要加起來
我本來以為是慣用語，可是文馨英漢字典上的例句，懷孕3個月是用three months，不是用third months呀。

各位牛前輩趕快來救我ㄅㄟ

我覺得it指pregnancy，which指rate。
were to grow throughout a pregnancy at the rate at which it grows between the fourth and eighth weeks.
at the rate which it grows at (the rate).
希望大家看的懂我想表達的東西...

大家覺得咧？
