比較對象不一致的有ABE 先刪掉
我想請問C錯在哪裡 是因為沒有"with males, their range......"這樣的用法嗎???
另外 我不懂正確答案 D為什麼要用未來式"will"???

C. While the typically range of a female grizzly bear in the Rockies is 50 to 300 square miles, with males, their range can cover 200 to 500 square miles and occasionally so

1."so many as "通常用於negative expression而此提示敘述一個事實 故用as many as較佳
2. range of a female grizzly bear &with males, their range 並不平行
3."with males, their range "is unidiomatic

謝謝Duke的回答喔
可不可以再問 D為什麼要用"will"呢

[freshmanduke]

D. Whereas a female grizzly bear in the Rokies typically occupies a range of 50 to 300 square miles, a male will cover 200 to 500 and occasionally as


若真要分
will在 語氣上表示 較為洽當
相較與 female 佔領領土達50-300 miles,
malegrizzly (將)可以 佔領領土達200-500 有時可達.....

兩則之間存有一種對照關係

我還是不清楚，因為我沒聽過這種說法...
可不可以講的仔細一點，或是提供幾個例子？

[freshmanduke]

to pufa:

簡單說 相較於female..... male will.....
在這male 預估佔地多大....
這是一種預測性質的表達
表示male將可以佔地多大 故用will較恰當

[hungji]

1.迅速觀察五答案
2.差異.....全句劃線就回歸原題吧
3.比較要同類, 刪 A,B
4.刪 E, 原題在比較公熊母熊, E 公熊不見了
5.刪 C, 因 a female bear 與 males , 且結構複雜
6.選 D, D 對了

如果用would會更好嗎?

因為這裡好像是經由觀察而做的科學推論

[huihui300]

will(able; willing)

used to talk about what someone or something is able or willing to do:

I'll give you a lift.
Ask Ian if he'll take them.
I've asked her but she won't come.
The car won't start.
This quantity of lasagne will feed six people

[Ace]

我想問題還是出在比較不同類
(E)一開始談a female grizzly bear,但後來 unlike males
所以比較不同類 E錯

我覺得時態是我們中文學習者的盲點
因為語法中本身就沒有時態的觀念
在SC中 除非證據確鑿 否則不應該先用時態刪答案...
以上為個人淺見

[kotokolin]

我對於正確答案沒問題
弱弱的問一下這裡句末的as many as 600 會不會有點怪呀?
1) range不是用大小衡量嗎? 怎麼不用 as large as 勒
2) as...as 不是用來比較嗎? 範圍有多大能這樣說?!!@#$%

我想到的題目有下面這三題, 希望不是自己搞錯句意了, 我覺得這題和下面這三題一樣, 沒有要比較

as many as... : 如...一般多
