這題之所以不能選 (C),關鍵在於「一個句子裡不能同時存在兩個獨立的完整子句,卻沒有連接詞來連接」。這是多數英文文法測驗中最經典的「逗號連接兩個句子(Comma Splice)」的錯誤。

以下為您拆解為什麼 (C) 是錯的,而 (B) 才是正確答案:

1. 拆解句子結構

我們先把這個句子簡化,看它的核心結構:

  • 前半句: Five coronal mass ejections have been released...(有主詞、有動詞 have been released,這是一個完整的獨立子句)。

  • 後半句(如果選 C): ..., three of them are due to hit...(three of them 是主詞,are 是動詞,這又是一個完整的獨立子句)。

2. 為什麼 (C) 錯誤?

在英文文法中,一個「逗號(,)」是沒有能力直接連接兩個完整子句的。如果您想用 (C),句子必須加上對等連接詞(如 and),或者把逗號改成句號/分號:

  • 錯誤: ..., three of them are due to hit... (X)

  • 正確: ..., and three of them are due to hit... (O)

  • 正確: ... . Three of them are due to hit... (O)

3. 為什麼 (B) 才是正確答案?

選項 (B) 使用了關係代名詞 which(three of which are)。 關係代名詞 which 在這裡同時兼具了兩個功能:

  1. 代名詞功能: 代替前方的名詞(coronal mass ejections 中的三個)。

  2. 連接詞功能: 它本身就相當於 and,因此它有能力把後半句變成一個「形容詞子句」,並用一個逗號與前半句完美連接。

  • 公式對等: three of which are = and three of them are

Full sentence:

Five coronal mass ejections have been released from the sun in a short period of time, three of which are due to hit the Earth and cause geomagnetic storms.

Explanation:

This sentence requires a relative clause to provide more information about the five coronal mass ejections. The phrase “three of which are” is the proper relative clause structure here. It refers to part of a previously mentioned group ("five coronal mass ejections") and provides extra information.

Let’s break down why the others are incorrect:

  • (A) three of them – This is a noun phrase, not a clause, so it doesn’t connect grammatically to the rest of the sentence.

  • (C) three of them are – This forms a new independent clause, making the sentence a run-on.

  • (D) three are – Similar to (C), it begins a new clause without proper punctuation or connection.

Correct structure: [main clause], [relative clause beginning with 'of which']
Hence, (B) is the only grammatically correct choice.
