SAT语法提问,SATER请进
1．Theodore Roosevelt was not just a great reformer:he was also a great president.
A.原句
B．Theodore Roosevelt was not just a great reformer,and also a great president.
为什么不选B呢?
2．The city is populated by many people who,although their common language is English ,the language at home range from speaking Armenian to Zapotec.
A.原句
B．speaking at home is the language ranging from Armenian to ZApotec
c.the languages range from Armenian to Zapotec
D.speak languages at home that range from Armenian to Zapotec
E.they are speaking language at home ranging from Armenian to Zapotec
怎么都看不懂这个句子?答案为什么是D,麻烦每个选项都分析下.

答案

1.Theodore Roosevelt was not just a great reformer:he was also a great president
中间是分号,就是万能连接词,可以用作but,and...
因为分号前后是两个独立的句子,A满足这个要求
Theodore Roosevelt was not just a great reformer,and also a great president
如果用and的话,前后两句又不是并列句式,就错了.
语感的话,总是not.but.对不对?
2.The city is populated by many people who,although their common language is English ,the language at home range from speaking Armenian to Zapotec.
中间两个逗号之间的可以忽略,不用看,但前后要连起来,要这样看：
The city is populated by many people who speak languages at home that range from Armenian to Zapotec
所以D最好
SAT语法中的句子不用你去完全看懂意思,而是明白方法去排除
所以,A,b.c.d都不能接在who的后面,错
