文有点长....下面是我上课时写到的题目
15. A careful analysis of the___b____ products on the market indicated that
our product lacked innovation and optional features.
(A) compete (B) competed
(C) competing (D) competition
我原本选C，但老师说答案是B
以下是老师的解释:
The word "competing and competed" are verbal adjectives derived from the verb
"compete."
Therefore:
Competed products
When “competed” is used as an adjective, it means "who/that is/are competed
over or hard to get."
The competed products = the products that are hard to get because everybody
wants to have it and compete for it.
Competing products
When competing is used as an adjective, it means "who/that is/are competing."
The competing products = the products that are competing with each other to
increase sales
我有问为什么不能选C，(我真的觉得C感觉很合逻辑啊)老师说因为后面有讲道自身产品的缺点，所以B会比C好。
但其实我自己有用google查了一下，查不到be competed over，想问大家，真的有这种用法吗?C真的不可以吗?
