Question

张一冰的 sat TEST2的题， 有几个不懂 呀，求教

the girl who won the beauty contest is (nowhere near )as beautiful as my wife was when she was a bride
请问这是错在哪里呢？我也查过例句的，可以这样用，会会不会是答案错了？
people admire bulls often praise for their strength and power;people who fear the bulls often condem them for the same (reasons).reasons是错的吧，应改改为reason才对呀，是只有一个原因呀？
跪谢罗！！！！！！

Answer 1

1. she 有歧义。 可以指代the girl也可以指代my wife
2. reason可以有两个，一个是stength, 一个是power, 因为strength和power两个原因而指责。当然用reason因为strength和power的原因也说的通，但你要知道，sat语法考的单复数，只在主谓一致中考到。

Answer 2

其实我也不确定，大概是For the first one "the girl who won the beauty contest is (nowhere near )as beautiful as my wife was when she was a bride", the sentence is trying to compare "the girl" to "my wife was" illogical comparison.
I don't know the second one.

Answer 3

第二个应该用reason，同样的原因，指上文提到过的。

Answer 4

原句写出来？

追问

我写了的呀。。。。。

追答

my wife was ----去掉was?
