34题,这个句子并不是定语从句,主谓宾都很齐全,主语companies,谓语are,宾语itscustomers.所以which是多余的
35题,正确的
36题,keepondoing继续做什么,keepsales接名词的话直接用keep,steady保持销售平稳,on多余。
37题,正确的
38题,but和despite不能同时使用,必须去掉一个。but后面要接完整的句子,这个后面不是句子,是名词性成分,所以保留despite,去掉but。
39题,turn…into变为,turningsurvivalintogrowth成为。固定词组。变生存为增长。Up多余。
40题,句子前后并没有指代的含义,代词those多余。
41题,aone-timecompetitor是修饰前面的Bronsonpic,
additionally是另外的,附加的意思,用在这里意思和用法都不通,所以去掉。
42题,both表并列,而这个句子前后是没有并列的含义的,只说了扩展规模。所以both多余。
43题,too是副词,在这里用法不对
44题,inasimilarway固定用法,much多余
45题,while用来引导时间状语从句,而很明显这个句子并不是,只是由that引导的从句,句子成分很齐全。去掉while。
