答案:C
类型:主谓一致
解析:句子的主语是both...and...,因此谓语动词不能用三人称单数。
修改建议:把attends改为attend。

21. Automatic photo booths that were(A) invented after the discovery of an automated photographic process that eliminated(B) the need(C) not only for negatives but also for(D) camera operators. No error(E)
答案:A
类型:句子结构
解析:句中两个动词were和eliminated都是从句中的动词,所以句子主句没有谓语动词。
修改建议:把that删掉。
22. Faced with(A) the ever-challenging task of balancing(B) school and work,Jillian opted to(C) forego taking a second part-time job and focusing(D) on her studies instead. No error(E)
