问题 The following questions present a sentence, part of which or all of which is underlined. Beneath the sentence, you will find five ways of phrasing the underlined part. The first of these repeats the original; the other four are different. If you think the original is best, choose the first answer; otherwise choose one of the others.
   These questions test correctness and effectiveness of expression. In choosing your answer, follow the requirements of standard written English; that is, pay attention to grammar, choice of words, and sentence construction. Choose the answer that produces the most effective sentence; this answer should be clear and exact, without awkwardness, ambiguity, redundancy, or grammatical error.
Some soldiers that were killed and seriously injured in the fighting last year were not trained according to regulations.

选项 A、Some soldiers that were killed and seriously injured in the fighting last year were not
B、In the fighting last year some of the soldiers that were killed or seriously injured were not
C、Last year some of the soldiers that were killed and seriously injured in last year’s fighting had not been
D、Some soldiers that were killed or seriously injured in the fighting last year had not been
E、Some soldiers that were killed or seriously injured in last year’s fighting have not been

答案D

解析 A and C illogically suggest that a soldier could be both "killed and seriously injured;" "killed or seriously injured" is the more logical construction. A, B, and E present unclear sequences of events by saying "were not trained" or "have not been trained," when the training clearly had to have taken place prior to the fighting in which the soldiers had been killed; the past perfect tense "had not been trained" is the appropriate tense here. D is the clearest statement of the facts.
