【问22】老师, 我曾在改错练习里遇到过这样两个句子: 1. The city’s administration constantly complained of having too little money to fix roads, but actually it had a greater amount of funding than other cities in the state. 2. They were relieved when monsoons carried rain from the southern seas and replenished India’s drought-stricken water supply. 我不知道错在哪里，请指出。谢谢。

答：The city’s administration constantly complained of having too little money to fix roads, but actually it had a greater amount of funding than other cities in the state的错误在于a greater amount of funding 不符合英语逻辑，funding不能用amount修饰，可改为had more funding 或a greater amount of funds.

      第二个句子They were relieved when monsoons carried rain from the southern seas and replenished India’s drought-stricken water supply 从语法方面我看不出什么错，在一定的上下文中是正确的。但如果光从本句来看，唯一有问题的地方就是主语they 指代不清。
