问题 Since savings banks have to use short-term deposits to finance long-term fixed-rate mortgage loans, they sometimes lose money when there is a rise in short-term rates and, on the other hand, they are unable to raise the rates on their mortgages.
选项 A、when there is a rise in short-term rates and, on the other hand, they are unable to raise
B、when short-term rates rise and they are unable to raise
C、when a rise in short-term rates occurs and, correspondingly, there is no rise possible in
D、with a rise in short-term rates, and they are unable to raise
E、with short-term rates on the rise and no rise possible in
答案B
解析 D、E有一个同样错误。一般来说，with短语若要作为伴随状语，应放在“theysometimes”之前，但在D、E中，with短语更可能被认为是money的修饰语，同时D中， “and theyare unable to raise”由原来的从属位置变成了与“they sometimes lose money”相并列的同等重要的主要句子，改变了句子的重心。E中还有两处表达不符合习惯用法：short-term rates on the rise应为a rise in short-term rates；no rise possible in应改为no possible rise in。A、C与B比较，表达啰嗦：“there is a rise in short—term rates”和“a rise in short-term rates occurs”都没有“short-term ratesrises”的表达简洁。C中的there be句型无法反映出“they are unable to raise”之意，因为there be句型仅指某处有某物，表示“自然”存在。
