可不可以請先進們幫忙分析解津本題的選項........

[GoldDigger]

(B) Having always professed disdain for such activities
現在完成式與過去式不合, 完成式不需要也改變句意

(C) All such activities were, he professed, disdained, and
複雜囉嗦的結構

(D) Professing that all such activities were disdained
沒有原題 For all → "儘管" 的意思

(E) In spite of professions of disdaining all such activity
In spite of(Despite) + 簡單名詞結構
professions of disdaining在意思上不等於his professed disdain of

(A) For all his professed disdain {of such activities}, Auden was an inveterate literary gossip. 總括他公開宣稱對這種活動的輕蔑, Auden 是個無可救藥的文學長舌.

(B) 分詞構句(現在完成式)跟主要子句時態(過去式)不一致

(C) (D) 改變句意:他公開承認這種活動是被輕蔑的(原句意:他輕蔑這種活動)

(E) In spite of 改變句意(原句意沒有雖然的意思)

這種考句意的題目,靠文法規則沒有辦法排除足夠的選項找到答案.

e.g. 已知規則只能刪除兩個選項:
(B) 分詞構句時態不一致 => 錯!
(E) of +Ving => 錯!

必需要讀出"被動改變句意": Auden 從主角變成旁觀者,才能順利踢除 (C) (D)

這題正式考試可能花掉 3 分鐘還不見得可以選到正確答案.

(B) (E) 很快可以排除

(A) (C) (D) 選哪一個? 文法都對, (A) 還稍微不太順眼,因為沒見過. 一緊張去掉 (A) 就浪費至少 3 分鐘選了一個錯的選項!

堅持下去!莫伯伯的"比較長短"法先作第一次猜測,假設 (A) 是對的.如果在此打住,不想再花時間;恭喜! 70% 對的機率,這題算在裡面.

(C) (D) 的共同特徵是"被動".看很久總算看出來了.什麼意思? 不是 Auden 不屑,是其他人. 啊!改變句意. 可以確認答案了.
