Patriotism has always been considered one of the goos things to hanve in any nation on earth, But it is a question whether patriotism has been the force for in the word.
空格的地方需要填上下列哪个选项:
A good or evil B true or false
老师说正确答案是A.他的解释是:开头句说爱国主义是几个国家认为好的事情之一.而下句全球范围里比较好还是恶.可是我觉得in any nation on earth 和 in the word都是表示全球范围.上面已经说了爱国主义已经是好的事情之一.下句应该是说这个"好的事情"是否是正确的或着是虚伪的.请问.我到底错在哪了?
Patriotism has always been considered one of the good things to have in any nation on earth, but it\'s a question whether patriotism has been a force for __ in the world.
首句提出爱国主义是一种好的事物;第二句but 让步,提出爱国主义是否已成为某种力量未曾确定。联系上文此处应填入good,由于but 的限制,填入其他词虽然翻译成中文可以理解但却失去了整句的内在逻辑性,故不可取。两句话句尾的in any nation on earth 和in the world ,意思一致,对空格无影响。
Patriotism has always been considered one of the good things to have in any nation on earth, but it\'s a question whether patriotism has been a force for good or evil in the world.
我觉得可以这样理解,第一句说爱国主义是好的东西(good thing),
第二句提出问题 爱国主义 是向/善(good,noun)还是向/恶(evil,noun)的力量。
but表示转折,主要在于good的不同含义上。it作为形式主语,实际主语是whether patriotism has been a force for good or evil in the world.
