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.
Health Department statistics demonstrate that children
reading high on glucose with family histories of diabetes
are twice as likely as the general population to develop diabetes.
选项
A、reading high on glucose with family histories of diabetes
B、with high glucose readings whose families have a history of diabetes
C、with high glucose readings and who have a diabetic history in the family
D、having high glucose readings and also having histories of diabetes in their family
E、with a history of diabetes running in the family and with high glucose readings
答案
B
解析
Answer B is the clearest and most concise formulation of the intended statement. The construction "reading high" in A is awkward; C is incorrect because "a diabetic history" is awkward; D is incorrect because "having high glucose readings" is stylistically inferior to "with high glucose readings;" E is less concise than B.
