A.我们应该将动名词短语documenting East African cave paintings改为名词短语her painstaking documentation of East African cave paintings,这点考查了名词和ing的区别。用之于本题,“记录下东非的洞穴壁画”在本句中显然是一个有时间终止点的行为,尤其是主句已经谈到Mary Leakey对考古的贡献了,贡献的东西,一定是在过去已经结束的事件。
欧洲人不可能是1992年到达新大陆的
E选项:本选项中that are to cut the company’s huge debt是plans的限定性定语,其中的that are是不能添加的。to cut已经可以修饰plans了,表示plans的内容,不必要再行添加that are。
E选项:rob和make是alter的两个并列的后果,两个并列是成分用and连接时,and身前不能有逗号。例如,一般我们说:
(1) James and I went to New York.
我们不说:
(2) **James, and I went to New York.
当投资100刀和每年能挣2刀并列时,应该写为:
I invested $100, holding 3 share, and could earn $2 per year.
此时不能写为:
I invested $100, and I held 3 share and could earn $2 per year.
E选项:only修饰second,意为“仅仅是次于的,没有别的特征”,但理论上应该是“次于的,仅仅是大豆,没有别的作物”。
条件状语应当遵从主将从现的原则,即,主句用将来时,从句用一般现在时
hoice b is tempting, but you should note that the argument is specifically designed to point out that this 'state of affairs' CAN affect the outcome.
这题很坑,问的是metal frames的总价格,而不是单个的价格,所以是可以算得出来的What was the total pretax price of the metal frames that Tami purchases
为什么再看一遍就对了…

mammals include 动物,好像这些动物是组成mammals身体的一部分
在不定式短语和ing短语中添加have=having been和to have been,表示先时性,先于主句动作发生,这里应该是同时发生。
介词because of身后的enhancing reproduction or survival是动名词短语,而动名词是没有“逻辑主语”的。但在本题中,被favor的必须是the products of natural selection,即,are favored在本题中必须有逻辑主语,否则无法满足语境中给出的逻辑关系。
又是一道 " X but Y"平行,而非 "not X but Y'平行
C, that order is found in questions. you can't put 'would' + noun + 'be' in a statement other than a question.
Would similar patterns be found in other animals? (question)
I don't know whether similar patterns would be found in other animals. (statement)
Never matched in the case ofxxx 结构复杂,不如直接matched byxxx
句意平行,enhance performance, 不能说enhance preparation, 所以只有enhance和prepare才平行 同意
这道题考查的应该就只是as as和equally的用法因为没有equally as一说,所以
排除ABC
D的asas中间不够平行
E如果不省略应该是 as drivers will be likely to exceed the proposed limit as drivers are likely to exceed the current limit
哪个在评估实验结果时最应该被纳入考虑,找一个能削弱“二氧化硫导致树长得慢”这一结论的选项,结论没找清楚
本选项用了Mary Leakey was a contributor…with x and with y的句型,没有明确Mary Leakey的贡献与x、y之间的关系,be a contributor的意思同主谓关系不同。例如:
(1) I sing a song by my iPhone.
(2) I am a singer of a song by iPhone.
句(1)描述的是一个事件,句(2)则是对“我”的一个定义。句(2)的意思是,我是一个通过iPhone唱歌的歌手。言下之意是,我一般都是用iPhone唱歌的,不会登上舞台等等。
同理,本选项的意思是:Mary Leakey是一个利用发现和记录至于考古学的贡献者。言下之意是,Mary Leakey一般都是用她对于人类行为的发现和对于东非的洞穴壁画的记录来贡献于考古的,不会用其它方式对考古做贡献。显然地,通过题目中所给的信息,我们无法得到这样的结论。只能说,Mary Leakey做的一个事件,而不能给Mary Leakey定性。
