The treasury market dropped in response to a decrease in the value of the dollar and to continued concern
that the economy might be growing as fast as
to accelerate inflation and drive interest rates higher.
选项
A、that the economy might be growing as fast as
B、that the economy might be growing fast enough
C、with the economy’s possibly growing so fast as
D、with the possibility of the economy growing fast enough so as
E、with the possibility of the economy possibly growing fast enough
答案
B
解析
Idiom; Rhetorical construction
This sentence expresses a possible condition related to the relative speed of the economy’s growth. The possible condition is expressed succinctly through the modal verb might in the subordinate clause that the economy might be growing. However, the correct idiom for expressing the relative speed is fast enough to precipitate negative economic consequences—not as fast as.
A As fast as is not the correct idiom.
B Correct. The possible condition is expressed succinctly using the modal verb might, and idioms are used correctly.
C Concern with is not the correct idiom; the phrases economy’s possibly growing and so fast as to are wordy and awkward.
D Concern with is not the correct idiom; the phrase possibility of the economy growing fast enough so as to is wordy and awkward.
E Concern with is not the correct idiom; possibility and possibly are unnecessarily and awkwardly repetitive.
The correct answer is B.
