Carbon-14 dating reveals that the megalithic monuments in Brittany are nearly 2,000 years as old as any of their supposed Mediterranean predecessors.
分析A选项
分析B选项
分析C选项
分析D选项
分析E选项
逻辑语义是Carbon14 证明了MM比MP的年纪大,因此supposed表明假设不确定,需要被证明;而supposedly是据说的意思,是已经确认的不需要证明,不合逻辑排除。当前版本由 xixidoris 更新于2021-10-13 15:52:49 感谢由 xixidoris 对此题目的解答所做出的贡献。
另外语法是 xxx time as adj as,或者 xxx years older than
FROM RON: (1) "2000 years as old as" is nonsense. If you don't see why, try applying it to a statement about other ages: "I am about 4 years as old as my brother." Huh? This is good enough to eliminate all of A, C, E. The only reasonable interpretation is that the monuments in Brittany are 2000 years OLDER than the other ones. There's no other way in which this sentence could legitimately make sense. (2) To break the deadlock between B and D, we need to use the MEANING of the sentence. Here's the meaning of each choice. Choice B ('supposed Mediterranean predecessors') --> There's no doubt that the other monuments are Mediterranean, but what was supposed (and now disproved by the new evidence) is that they were the predecessors of the ones in Brittany. Choice D ('supposedly Mediterranean predecessors') --> There's no doubt that the other monuments are the predecessors of the ones in Brittany, but what was supposed (and now disproved by the new evidence) is that they were Mediterranean. B makes sense; D doesn't. If you don't immediately see why, consider that the decisive evidence was carbon-14 dating (which is used to tell how old things are, not where they're from).
类似考点: Wrong: James Joyce is Max's SUPPOSEDLY Irish ancestor. Right: James Joyce is Max's SUPPOSED Irish ancestor. Wrong: Max's grandmother is his SUPPOSED Irish ancestor. Right: Max's grandmother is his SUPPOSEDLY Irish ancestor. In the first example, we know (it is public knowledge) that James Joyce is Irish, but we don't know whether he is Max's ancestor. Hence "supposed ancestor". In the second example, we know (by definition) that Max's grandmother is his ancestor, but we don't know whether she is Irish. Hence "supposedly Irish". 还有: recent extended sales slump, or a recently extended sales slump or brief rainy day briefly rainy day

倍数 as adj. as...;XXXyears older than.

1. as old as/older than A is as old as B. (A和B一样大) A is twice as large as B. (A是B的2倍大。) A is 2 years older than B. (A比B大2岁。) 2. supposed/supposedly supposed表假设,待证明。 supposedly无需证明。 题目意思为: 之前认为B的祖先是M,但是C-14证明了,B比M还老2000年。

supposed修饰n.祖先,而supposedly修饰adj.Mediterranean.根据句意是说“比所谓的祖先老”,所以这里修饰的是祖先而不是Mediterranean【曼哈顿sc,修饰语部分有专门讲到】;as old as错误,不能说和...一样老,一般说older than比谁老

请问一下大家,语义不是以原文为准嘛?这个题怎么看出来是older than,比较级的关系呀?
斗牛梗今天学习了吗回复342188qdre
就算不看语义,说MM和MP一样老,句子应该是MM are as old as MP, 或者是 MM are 2000 years old, as old as MP. 如果直接MM are 2000 years as old as MP, 那就有2000 years 和 MP 一样老的意思,逻辑有误吧。

看了其他的地方,给的解释是: times as ... as ✔ 具体数 -er than ✔ 具体数 as ... as ❌
Ancelineee
看了一大圈解释我感觉我这里想不转哈: 题干处没有明确说明: 这堆巨石比原定祖先老? 还是 这堆巨石和原定祖先一样老? 我觉得这两个其实都可以。 说“根据题干猜测得知想表达的意思是 这堆巨石比原定祖先老”未免有些根据答案来解题了。 有没有逻辑小天才来讲一讲这里到底怎么判断呀?~

as old as 前面就不用加 "nearly 2,000 years"了

这里的as old as是表示和...一样老,但是后文句意来说应该是想要表达比他们认为的地中海地区的祖先老,因此选择比较结构
