英文大考常考題 – 68   ( 插入句 )

綜合測驗   

Famous American big-game hunter Sanger Rainsford is on a boat headed to Brazil for a hunting trip.  On a dark, steamy night, Rainsford is out smoking when a wave knocks him overboard.  The boat sails on, leaving Rainsford with no choice but to swim to a nearby island that _____ is dangerous.

(A) it                          (B) what                (C) moreover               (D) sailors say

這題答案是 (D)。    (ALL+ 2015-11 p.22)

這題的重點是[ 插入句 ]：

1.     [ it, what, moreover ]放入空格均不適 -

       [ a nearby island that is dangerous ]可以是一個合適的答案，[ it ]是多餘的。

       [ what = the thing which ]也是在多餘的。

       [ moreover ]語意不合。

       [ sailors say ]是[ 插入句 ] - OK。
