超難文法題

We never would have given him so much authority, even though he's the boss's son, ____ how irresponsibly he'd managed the project.

(A) did we know
(B) we did know
(C) we had known
(D) had we known

答案

儘管他是老闆的兒子，早知道他管理專案這麼不負責任的話，我們絕對不會給他這麼大的權力。

We never would have --> 與過去事實相反的假設

原本是 if we had known，此處省略 if ，並將助動詞 had 放在句首，形成倒裝句。


這句本身也是個倒裝

If we had known how irresponsibly he'd managed the project, we never would have given him so much authority, even though he's the boss's son.


原始結構是這樣

有趣的廣告 Good-bye Cellulite NIVEA

cellulite 是「橘皮組織」
「橘皮組織」(cellulite)這個名詞，最早出現在19世紀的法國醫學文獻，描述皮膚呈現如同橘子皮一般凹陷高低不平的形態，好發於女性的大腿後上方與臀部，雖然這個現象不會造成健康的危害，但影響皮膚的美觀。

NIVEA 就是那個有名的「妮維雅」
