15. I hope to do as ______ swimming this summer as I did last year. A. a lot B. possible C. much D. many times 這是gept中高級預試閱讀考題 第15題 https://www.gept.org.tw/download/pretest/doc/hl6.zip 解答給C 想問一下 為何D不能選呢 然後想問一下 一般會像這句這樣寫嗎 我以為會直接寫I hope to swim...
do 需要受詞 -> do swimming(名詞)(*1)。C. much 是用形容詞修飾 swimming(名詞)的as ... as 用法。D 的話times本身是名詞，所以不能直接接swimming。把swimming移到 as...as之前也許可以:I hope to do swimming as many times this summer as I.... (乾脆改成 I hope to swim as ....)這時候的 many times 帶有副詞功能(字面是名詞片語: 形容詞+名詞)，修飾的是前頭的 do。這情況和 C 的整句不同(*1) 可能是沿用 do exercise 的語法。Google Books上可以找到很多 do swimming 的例子
