英语选择题(after)
94.Most of his novels and plays were not published or known to the public ____ his tragic death.
A.even after B.ever since
C.until after D.at time of
选A。甚至在他悲惨地死去之后,他的大部分小说和剧本都没有被出版或为公众所知。even在句中是副词,修饰介词短语after his tragic death。而until只能做介词和连词使用,如果要用until的话,整个句子应该是:Most of his novels and plays were not published or known to the public until his tragic death.
not……until的搭配,直到……才……的意思。
Most of his novels and plays were not published or known to the public ____ his tragic death.
他的大多数小说和戏剧并未出版发行为公众所知___他不幸死亡.
B.ever since 自从
“自从他不幸死亡,他的大多数小说和戏剧并未出版发行或为公众所知”不合逻辑.死后不会写什么小说和戏剧,已经为人知后不会突然变得不为人知.
D.at time of 在 .的时候
意思上可以但是语法错误,应该写为 at THE time of
C.until after 直到.之后
“他的大多数小说和戏剧都并未出版发行或为公众所知,直到他不幸死亡以后”既符合语法,意思也行的通.但是要再看最后一个选择.
A.even after 甚至.以后
“甚至他不幸死亡以后,他的大多数小说和戏剧都并未出版发行或为公众所知”有可能,既符合语法,意思也行的通,可是没有 C 好.一是因为这句话是过去式,如果他的作品在死后真的一直都没有发行,这句话就该是现在时.要是真的不为人知就没有人会写这句话了.
总结:可以排除 B和 D,A有可能,但不如C,所以选C.
