PP1的一個問提

[jungtsu]

Whereas scientist, because of random fluctuations in the weather, cannot determine the transition from one season to the next by monitoring temperatures on a daily basis, so they cannot determine the onset of glbal warming by monitoring average annual temperatures.

B) Just as scientists
C) Like scientist who
D) Inasmuch as a scientist
E) In the same way a scientist

答案B
這題因為 so they....所以D、E a scientist 不能選
C的Like也不對
但是對於答案中 Just as..... so....有點不明白
這是A is to B as C is to D 句型的延伸嗎

[jungtsu]

有人可以幫忙回答一下嗎
謝謝!

just as ... so....如同地...同樣地..慣用語

[jungtsu]

謝謝

再請問一下，那如果這個句型中沒有 "as"可不可以
以這個句子為例改成
Just as scientists cannot determine...., they cannot determine.....
意思應該差不多是嗎

你應該是要問省略so可不可以? so是可以省略的

我剛好做大全有做到, 給你參考一下
