[問題]大全528

文章angelat » 2006-07-25 18:57

20. Never before in the history of music have musical superstars been able to command so
extraordinary fees of the kind they do today.
(A) so extraordinary fees of the kind they do today
(B) so extraordinary fees as they are today
(C) such extraordinary fees as they do today
(D) such extraordinary fees of the kind today’s have
(E) so extraordinary a fee of the kind they can today

正確答案是C
這一題的答案我選B
我的問題是:
我記得我以前學到such 及so 的用法是
Such +名詞
so+形容詞
這裡的extraordinary 是形容詞 為什麼不用so 呢?

(B)的are不對,主句動詞是command,這裡as後面必須用助動詞do
這裡extraordinary 後面還有個 fees 是名詞,可用such.

前句的動詞完整的說是否為"have been able to command"
接著再從"today",變成 are able to command ,接著,我就選錯了
是因為are able to command,可以省略變成"do"助動詞嗎?
by the way, "are"是助動詞嗎?

請問這裡為什麼要用have been(現在完成式)呢?
Never是為了強調嗎? before的作用是什麼
整句的意思是?

還有such/so的用法:
such a clever boy是對的我確定
那so clever a boy對嗎?
Where do you want to go ?

整句的意思:音樂的歷史上,在"今天"之前的musical superstars從未能command 這等多的費用如同"今天"他們所command的費用。

我分析一下:

OG152. When the technique known as gene-splicing was invented in the early 1970's, it was feared that scientists might inadvertently create an "Andromeda strain," a microbe never before seen on Earth that might escape from the laboratory and it would kill vast numbers of humans who would have no natural defenses against it.

這裡的never before,before那個時間,我 認定為在1970年代之前。

OG92. Never before had taxpayers confronted so many changes at once as they had in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
(A)so many changes at once as they had in
(B)at once as many changes as
(C)at once as many changes that there were with
(D)as many changes at once as they confronted in
(E)so many changes at once that confronted them in
Ans:D
這裡的never before也是before the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
正確答案代進去
Never before had taxpayers confronted as many changes at once as they confronted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
再還原一下:
Taxpayers had never before confronted as many changes at once as they confronted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
假使變成這樣:
Taxpayers had never before" the Tax Reform Act of 1986 "confronted as many changes at once as they confronted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
句意是通的,而且更容意了解。這裡的before" the Tax Reform Act of 1986 "把 had never ....confronted扯的太遠了,所以倒不如省略

528.Never before in the history of music have musical superstars been able to command so extraordinary fees of the kind they do today.
(A) so extraordinary fees of the kind they do today
(B) so extraordinary fees as they are today
(C) such extraordinary fees as they do today
(D) such extraordinary fees of the kind today’s have
(E) so extraordinary a fee of the kind they can today
Ans:C
正確答案代進去:
Never before in the history of music have musical superstars been able to command such extraordinary fees as they do today.
還原: Musical superstars have never before in the history of music been able to command such extraordinary fees as they do today.
同樣的,在before 後加入"today"與句意是相同的,但是redundancy,所以省略。

至於:1.so/such,我找一下,好像沒有 so clever a boy, 只有such a    clever boy
2.為什麼用完成式:never:1.從未2.決不,看句意,若是"從未"就要用完成式。要用現在完成,還是過去完成,就要看句中所提到的是before 現在,還是before 過去時間,og152,92很明顯是提到過去
3. 倒裝的話,應該是加強語氣或者是看得比較順(對native speaker而言),省略 before 後面的時間..concise
To sum up:before的用法,就是文章所提的時間,有跡可尋

are 是be動詞
不是助動詞

至於so clever a boy不對嗎?
以前不是學過這樣的句子嗎
he's such a clever boy. = he's so clever a boy.

補充一下such...as...的用法( from Longman)

there's no such person/thing etc as somebody/something

used to say that a particular person or thing does not exist
eg:There's no such thing as magic.
