OG10语法268题及GWD22语法总结日记十四

13.State officials report that soaring rates of liability insurance have risen to force cutbacks in the opera tions of everything from local governments and school districts to day-care centers and recreational facilities.
A. rates of liability insurance have risen to force
B. rates of liability insurance are a force for
C. rates for liability insurance are forcing
D. rises in liability insurance rates are forcing  
E. liability insurance rates have risen to force

1．  为什么have risen 和rises是多余的？   (重复问题-一级排除 A,D,E)
Soaring有高飞上升的意思，rise 与soaring 重复  

2．  Rate of /for ？（词的用法  二级排除B）
当rate的意思是price charge 的时候不能接of, 应该接for ， payment for  
rates  当表示费用时加介词 for
当表示比例时 加介词 of  

3. 为什么不用A force for而用are forcing？(逻辑意思准确表达—二级排除B)
是因为are a force for 不能够准确的表达the soaring rates 现在正在forcing cutbacks的动作。
动名词比名词更能表现出正在发生的动作状态。  

4．动词优于名次(二级排除B)
