68. Outlining his strategy for nursing the troubled conglomerate back to health, the chief executive’s plans were announced on Wednesday for cutting the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months.
(A) executive’s plans were announced on Wednesday for cutting the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
(B) executive’s plans, which are to cut the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months, were announced on Wednesday
(C) executive’s plans for cutting the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months were announced on Wednesday
(D) executive announced plans Wednesday to cut the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
(E) executive announced plans Wednesday that are to cut the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
答案解析如下:
(A)executive's plans were announced on Wednesday for cutting the company's huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
【错误1】 修饰成分:“Outlining his strategy for nursing the troubled conglomerate back to health”本意上应做“announced”的伴随状语,因此其逻辑主语应与“announced”相同,因此其后连接的主谓结构中,做主语的本应为“executive”,而非“executive's plans”。
【错误2】 句子意思:“plans”和“for cutting”搭配使用表意逊于(D)中“plans”和“to cut”搭配,因为“to do”结构能可用于更加合理地表达“目的”的含义。
(B)executive's plans, which are to cut the company's huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months, were announced on Wednesday
【错误1】 修饰成分:见(A)中【错误1】。
【错误2】 简洁明了:“plans, which are to”中的“, which are”不具有简洁性,如果将其去掉完全不影响表意
(C)executive's plans for cutting the company's huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months were announced on Wednesday
【错误】 句子意思:见(A)中【错误2】。
(D)executive announced plans Wednesday to cut the company's huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
【正确】 “plans to cut”正确使用了“plan to do sth.”的固定搭配(其中“plan”作动词或名词均可),“Wednesday”即便不合“on”连用组成“on Wednesday” ,也可以用作表时间的状语。
【大意】 在概述他使一个麻烦重重的集团企业恢复健康的战略时,总裁与周三宣布通过在未来18个月出售120亿美元资产以价格低公司巨额债务的计划。
(E)executive announced plans Wednesday that are to cut the company's huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
【错误】 简洁明了:类似地,见(B)中(2)“that are”没有任何意义,完全可以去掉。
【最优解题思路推荐】
“Outlining his strategy for nursing the troubled conglomerate back to health”打头意味着只有“executive”才能做其后主谓结构的主语,立即排除(A)、(B)、(C)。
“plan”完全可以直接与“to”搭配,两者之间加入“that are”不具有简洁性,因此(D)、(E)中选择(D)。
