Question

sat 语法
1.The director valued the actor not so much for his broad commercial appeal (but because he approach every role with passion and intelligence.)
括号里面应该成 as for his passionate and intelligent approach to every role.句子的对称我知道,但这里as for 怎么理解呢
2.Most of the books (around) this old house smell of mildew,and if you pick it up,you will find that the spine (has deteriorated) and their covers have the rotted.第一个括号里没错,但我总读起来怪怪的.第二个括号里哪里错了?

Answer 1

1.The director valued the actor not so much for his broad commercial appeal as for his passionate and intelligent approach to every role.
not so much for sth. as for sth. 表示更倾向于后者
2. Most of the books around this old house smell of mildew, and if you pick it up, you will find that the spine has deteriorated and their covers have rotted.
该句子语法上没有什么大的问题,最后一个have the rotted,应该为have rotted.
