原文意思:汽车生产商宣布他将是SUV更节油,大概让每升油多跑五里,这种变化代表了一个巨大的变化
题目分析:当读到and representing的时候我们可以发现一个并列,根据意思判断这个represent应该和前面plans to这个意思形成对应,表达的是“生产商计划干一个事情并且这个计划代表了一个变化”,中间加入amount是让我看出这个并列的难度变大一些,如果用A那就是amount和represent形成了并列,掉进了出题者的陷阱,杀。B中and后面加it,可是represent和plan的发起者没有变化,加it多余,杀。C也有it,犯了相同错误,杀。D用would represent和前面plans进行对应,并且没有it,前面几个选项犯的毛病都没有犯,有没有可能有新的错误?有,但至少先留着,如果只剩这一个选项了,这个问题就没有必要问了。E用representing很难和前面的plans进行对应,杀。
