问题 The bank holds $3 billion in loans that are seriously delinquent or in such trouble that they do not expect payments when due.
选项 A、they do not expect payments when
B、it does not expect payments when it is
C、it does not expect payments to be made when they are
D、payments are not to be expected to be paid when
E、payments are not expected to be paid when they will be
答案C
解析 Agreement; Logical predication; Verb form
The plural pronoun they cannot be used to refer to the singular noun bank. The structure of they do not expect payments when due is awkward and unclear.
A Bank requires the singular pronoun it, not the plural pronoun they. The structure of when due creates ambiguity in meaning.
B Payments is a plural noun, so the singular this is incorrect.
C Correct. In this correct sentence, pronouns and their referents agree, as do subjects and their verbs. The addition of the modifying phrase to be made clarifies the meaning of the sentence.
D The active voice is preferable here, since the passive voice leaves it unclear who does not expect the payments to be made Payments ... to be paid is redundant. Are not to be incorrectly suggests that the writer is prescribing that the payments not be expected.
E The active voice is preferable here, since the passive voice leaves it unclear who does not expect the payments to be made Payments ... to be paid is redundant. Will re is not the correct verb form.
The correct answer is C.
