Both the Federal Reserve’s decision that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making deposits more attractive.

A. that borrowing rates be raised, along with investor’s speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
B. that borrowing rates be raised and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made
C. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
D. to raise borrowing rates, along with investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way, helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because it made
E. to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation of possibly another increase on the way helped bolster the dollar in recent weeks because they made

請問這題答案是c嗎？
A, 沒有用both A and B的結構，感覺不好
B,沒有用both A and B的結構，感覺不好, they不清楚
D,沒有用both A and B的結構，感覺不好,it不清楚
E,they不清楚
不知道這樣分析對嗎?

我看一看 想選E both....and.... 平衡的部份是下面這兩個
the Federal Reserve’s decision to raise borrowing rates
investors' speculation of possibly another increase
helped 是動詞
they的話 我也不是確定
但我覺得E比C好 主要是在平衡的結構 比較漂亮

個人看法 也不確定對錯
請大家指教~

[envily]

我想E主要出的問題在於they的指代有問題
而且我覺得speculation與possibly意思有overlap
有redendent之嫌

句意
FD的貸款利率提高以及投資人預期上漲的心理 使得美元升值 儲蓄增加

both~~ and ===> 剩下B C E
B--
1.speculation與possibly redendent-->agree
2.they--->來亂的
3.that borrowing rates be raised--->有主動的不選被動
E--
1.they--->來亂的
2.that borrowing rates be raised--->有主動的不選被動

我覺得 (B) (E) 裡的 speculation of possibly another increase on the way 是不對的用法
of +N, 而 possibly 是副詞不能修飾名詞 (N)
正確的用法應該是 speculation of another increase possibly on the way

Both the Federal Reserve’s decision to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making
deposits more attractive.

我想請問這一題的and應該是平衡 to raise borrowing rates and to bolster the dollar, 動詞是helped, 那請問investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way 在這句話裡是算是個怎樣的詞性阿??因為他插在句子裡很怪阿, 說是插入句也很怪, 那他是要補充說明誰ㄚ??
難道是對儲蓄更有吸引力的方法補充說明??

還有by很怪耶?? 是因為貸款利率增加 美元上升還有投資者的臆測才幫助了存款增加吧, 可by後通常是指藉由什麼方法~~不是指結果~~

各位大大, 救救我吧~~

Both the Federal Reserve’s decision to raise borrowing rates and investors’ speculation that another increase might be on the way helped to bolster the dollar in recent weeks by making deposits more attractive.
C裡面平衡的不是to raise borrowing rates 和 to bolster the dollar
是平衡the Federal Reserve’s decision 和 investors’ speculation
主要動詞是helped

that another increase might be on the way 是that 引導的後置修飾語(qualifier)形容 投資者的預期

這裡by 沒有因果關係, 附上longman其中by的解釋
means/method used to say what means or method someone uses to do something:
-She earns her living by selling insurance
-He was taken from his home by force
這裡不會翻譯成因為賣保險使得她能生活

所以句意解釋成
聯準會決定調升貸款利率 和 投資者預期上漲 都能幫助 吸引(大眾)存款來 支撐最近幾週的匯率(我猜貨幣指的是指匯率)

總結一下這篇，考的是平衡, 代名詞, 主動比被動, 還有redundancy
A, D不平衡=> both .... , along with 應改為both... and
B, D, E的they, it 指代不清楚
A, B的 decision that borrowing rates be raised 沒有主動 to raise 好
B, E 的 speculation of possibly another increase有重複, 且 speculation+ that比較慣用

感激
大大解釋的非常清楚

第一步：both A and B →留下BCE
第二步：speculation of 錯! 剩下C。

備註：speculation...這種重要在內容的都要用that。
