29、 buildings are not as modern as your city. （分数：3.00）_正确答案：()解析：Our city“s buildings are not as modern is your city“s.解析 考查的是错误平行结构的修改。平行结构是把两个或两个以上意思并列的成分用同等的语法形式表达出来的结构。如果意思上并列的成分用不同等的语法形式来表达，就破坏了平行结构。题目中和“our city“s buildings”对应的应是“your city“s”。12.To get ready for the rainy weather, the umbrella h
