选项
A、According to the National Pasta Association, per-capita consumption of pasta in the United States, which has already been approaching 19 pounds a year, will achieve 30 pounds a year by the twenty-first century.
B、Already approaching 19 pounds a year in the United States, the National Pasta Association predicts that per-capita consumption of pasta will reach 30 pounds a year by the twenty-first century.
C、The National Pasta Association predicts by the twenty-first century that per-capita consumption of pasta in the United States, which is already approaching 19 pounds a year, will achieve 30 pounds a year.
D、By the twenty-first century, the National Pasta Association predicts that per-capita consumption of pasta in the United States, having already approached 19 pounds a year, will reach 30 pounds a year.
E、According to the National Pasta Association, per-capita consumption of pasta in the United States is already approaching 19 pounds a year and will reach 30 pounds a year by the twenty-first century.
答案
E
解析
A中:which从句语法上的先行词为the united States,而从句意上分析,其先行词应是:per capita consumption of pasta,两者不一致,排除A。B从语法上讲,approaching短语的主语是Association,而从逻辑上讲,其主语应为percapita consumption,两者不一致,排除B。C、D中by时间短语放在主句中,表明是修饰predicts这个动作的,这显然改变了原意(by短语本是修饰will reach 30 pounds),同时,by时间短语一般要求谓语动词是将来时或过去完成时,本句中的predicts也不满足此条件。E用了两种不同时态下的动作并列,表明了两种时间条件的状况(请注意此处现在进行时与A中的完成进行时的含义区别:①完成进行时:表从过去开始到现在一直在“逼近”,似乎只“逼”不“近”。②而现在进行时表目前之状态:正在接近,隐含从过去发展到现在的结果,更符合句意)。同时,reach比achieve更准确,因为achieve主要与“成就,发展”等搭配。
