介宾短语的动名词没有主语问题!!!!!!!again
E中which定语从句,依照就近修饰原则的话,不是错了吗
没有错呀,妥妥地修饰letters,总不能修饰前面的人(Susan Huntington Dickinson)吧
不能修饰人,所以会觉得E选项错了啊
which不是就近修饰嘛,前面是SHD,所以错了。感觉自己学的还不够。。。
体会bc语义差异;c限制性定从,从句focus on “have”这个动作、b非限制性定从,从句focus on “require”
compare to 的主语应该是主句主语,此处为there 错
同位语修饰整个句子是必须是抽象名词,是具象名词时只能修饰前一个名词
tortoise单数,
注意为划线部分a variety
作了18年主席而不是前主席,前主席不用加时间段,因为不可能停止成为前主席
是a不是d
读懂搞定一切
选对了但是耗时过长!
注意到代词指代问题!
注意理解句子重心的变化
because的是humidity的变化(由游客带进去的moisture)
the real problems with choice a:
- 'the ratio of 42 times' is redundant; it'd be good enough just to say '42 times'. note that the word 'ratio' is not redundant in choices c-d, since it's being used as a modifier to make a logical connection.
- it doesn't say 42 times what. not only is that unacceptably vague, but it also breaks parallelism.
i think the combination of "amount" and "as much as" would be tagged as redundant and therefore wrong.
i am not 100% on this, as the gmat's usage preferences are rather slippery at times, but there's no doubt that this suggestion is inferior to the version without "as much as".
shorter versions:
amount X is twice as much as amount Y --> inferior, and possibly even wrong (redundant)
amount X is twice amount Y --> undoubtedly better
D 方案相关的题 只要能达成目的就行 不需要是最好的方案
只要SPK004比目前种的 有更多beta-carotene就可以, 不需要SPK004含有最多的beta-carotene
just look at the parallel structures side-by-side, and notice which parts match up to which other parts.
/the total amount of pollutant/ emitted annually by vehicles at the O'hare International airport
is twice
/that /emitted annually by all...
我的解释:
①原句中强调了all,如果省去的话会改变原句的意思,所以排除BE
②A中as much as that which ...(that which 很wordy)排除A
③as much + compared to 错误
选C
逻辑gap 只要不漏油→没污染, gap是除了漏油没有其他污染
Ron: i'm loath to use apostrophe + "s" for anything but humans, animals, and the like.
‘s在表达上相对有限制==》拥有某种东西
of sth 也表示拥有,但可以说一些非物化的,比如拥有特征之类的
注意:DE改变了原句的intended meaning!(做题时一定要仔细留心A选项的含义)
unqualified adj. 不合格的, 无资格的 // 无限制的, 无条件的;绝对的, 十足的==》这里取无限制的 这个意思
unqualifying adj.没有达到要求的
"unqualifying" means "not meeting some sort of standard for qualification".
the intended meaning here is "unqualified", which means "without any sort of restriction or reservation".
