错选E,abandoned严重不符。整个文章也没有下结论。
选项B:原文中说的是The proportion of verdicts for the patentee began to increase in the 1830s, suggesting to these scholars that judicial attitudes toward patent rights began shifting then. 是比例,这选项B说的是数量
选项B,虽然文中说了Not all patent disputes in the early nineteenth century were litigated, however, and litigated cases were not drawn randomly from the population of disputes. 但是这个选项是说作者引用了非诉业务的“具体数量”,所以这个选项是错的
再错就死。
思路:sam最后要胜出——当时桌面上至多有5根——刚才Rita在拿的时候桌面上要不多不少正好六根,才能保证Rita死活拿不完(可以试下如果7根,Rita就会只拿1根留6根给sam,所以这个游戏的目标就是留6根给对手,让自己稳赢。所以选项中找6的倍数,选D:12
这篇真的好难啊!!!!!
感觉A和C都可以 有没有朋友帮忙解释一下C呢 写书评的人如果对编辑认为的好书持负面评价 那为了可以刊登出来,他的确可能得隐藏真实想法 而且C也是说的might并不是绝对的语气
Not having such books reviewed might give the impression that the editor was caught napping, whereas too many reviews of books that readers will have trouble finding in stores would be inappropriate.
Why not A? If these were the only factors influencing editors, few books that stand little chance of selling well would ever be reviewed.不就恰恰说明不可能完全不考试商业成功可能性吗?不懂
阅读理解:report sth as sth,认为某事是某事
They will be heavily advertised and probably be among the books that most bookstores order in quantity
as表示像……一样/当……时/因为时是连词,只能接句子,不能接名词;as/as,the same/as是并列连词,接名词是结构的省略
到底是忽视公司还是忽视公司的失败:
B,“;”只能用在较长的短语之间,higher in others并不长;but 前面是逗号,做并列主句,并列句里面再用一个分号,很突兀,不利于理清逻辑
平行原则,or后面只能是repressing
A,grasping没有平行对象,不能与an understanding构成平行
这题考一个并列的点,an understanding of cultural norms 是complex gerund, 而grasping the pivotal business issues是simple gerund,这两个不能并列的。详见曼哈顿语法册,Chapter11。
修饰语应该尽可能接近被修饰部分,尤其是对句意、句子逻辑重要的修饰成分。
对于这里turn for help to do/in doing含义上的区别。看了OG中的解释,”the sentence is intended to about people who, because they do not trust themselves to make wise investment decisions, turn to stockbrokers for advice”. 这句话的含义就是:人们因为不相信自己作出明确的决策,而向股票经纪人寻求建议。即是说他们需要的不是股票经纪人帮他们买股票,而是在买股票这件事中帮助他们(给出建议)。
