问题 New Jersey’s is one of the five highest number of reported cases of Lyme disease in the United States.

选项 A、New Jersey’s is one of the five highest number of reported
B、New Jersey’s is one of the five highest numbers in reporting
C、New Jersey has a report of one of the five highest numbers of
D、New Jersey has one of the five highest numbers of reported
E、New Jersey reports one of the five highest number of

答案D

解析 从上面的第1个例子可以看出:所有格“’s”的指代形式一般是出现在所指代的名词之后。而本句中A、B选项在句首出现了所有格指代New Jersey’s,让读者觉得很突然,不知’s之后省略的名词是哪一个?(退一步说,后面也并未出现另一个“地名+’s的所有格形式+名词的结构”来暗示New Jersey’s之后省略了哪一个名词。)由此,排除A、B;C中report作为宾语,改变了reported作修饰成分的原意,篡改了句意;E同理,report居然用来作谓语。D中删除了’s结构,避免了找不到相同结构的呼应,表达了句意。
