恭贺本月机经班同学一战考取720高分,今天再来分享一题有来源的修辞题目。
The second great leap forward in bridge building would not occur until the
Industrial Revolution of the 18th century. A major impetus was the newly
invented railroad, which created the need for bridges that could span rivers
and carry the heavy loads of steam engines and their freight. [The first
bridge made of cast iron was a semi-circular arch supporting a roadway
constructed over the Severn River in Coalbrookdale, England, in 1779. ]

题目的原文就是框起来的部分,但是句子的后半段出题者又加了一串句子,而这添加的句子
也是本题画线的部分。
The first bridge made of cast iron was a semi-circular arch supporting a
roadway constructed over the Severn River in Coalbrookdale, England, in 1779,

本题选项中可以把选项粗分两种类型:
(I) which was the only span…
(II) and was the only span…
本题不难,用功的小伙伴在观察出选项的差异后,应该都已经知道本题一定考“平衡法”还
有“代名词”。
还没有感觉的同学,我们在这边再次提醒:
看到了“and”就要思考平衡的问题,平衡的单位可能有名词、动词、形容词、词组甚至于
句子。至于平衡,请同学务必要稍微读一下句子的意思再来确认平衡,在实际的考题里头,
已经有不少修辞的题目要从句意上来判断平衡,长相最漂亮的答案反而是“文法对,句意错
。” 所以建议同学们在学习一些修辞技巧时,不要盲目地死背硬记技巧,应该要动动脑筋
思考为什么?
扯远了,回到本题,这题同学们看到关系代名词which时就要思考关系代名词指涉的问题,
在这里which在句意上指的是主词bridge,这样子关系代名词先行词太~~~~远了,也不符合
我们上课时莫老师教授因“轻重问题”而把形容词子句后移的条件,所以(I)类型的答案
我们就先删掉,剩下的选项中,出题者在span后面做了动词的变化,依照本题句意,我们应
该选择使用过去简单式(and was the only span that survived)即可,而非完成式。
最后和我们上课时一样,帮同学补充一些容易忘掉的重点:
1. the only N + 关代… (这个关代一定要用that!)
<补充其他关代一定要用that的情况>
(a) 先行词是“人+物”
I saw Stacy and her dog that were running in the park.
(b) 先行词前面有序数
John is the first boy that came last week.
(c) 先行词前面有all ; no ; every ; any ; the only ; the same ; the very
He is the only student that can answer professor’s question.
(d) 形容词子句在以who ; which ; what为首的问句中 (这主要是避免用字重复ꄊ Who is the girl that has long hair?
