Sales of wines declined in the late 1980s, but they began to grow again after the 1991 report that linked moderate consumption of alcohol, and particularly of red wine, with a reduced risk of heart disease.
they began to grow again after the 1991 report that linked moderate consumption of alcohol, and particularly of red wine, with a reduced risk of heart disease
after the 1991 report that linked a reduced risk of heart disease with a moderate alcohol consumption, particularly red wine, they began growing again
in a 1991 report, moderate alcohol consumption, and particularly of red wine, which was linked with a reduced risk of heart disease, caused them to begin to grow again
with a reduced risk of heart disease linked in a 1991 report with moderate alcohol consumption, in particular red wine, they began growing again
a reduced risk of heart disease linked to moderate alcohol consumption in a 1991 report, and in particular red wine, started them growing again
题目分析:
本题较长,但是考点相对明显,不算是很难的考题。
选项分析:
A选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。代词they指代sales of wines,and particularly of red wine中去掉and也是对的(and可放在插入语前,不影响逻辑)。
B选项:ing短语growing again需改为不定式短语to grow again,这点考查了不定式和ing的区别,本题中的begin属于约束力较强的情况。在习语上,begin to do和begin doing都是常见的,并且经常被认为相等。但其实,两者有明显的使用区别。begin doing一般是从第三方的角度描述doing这一事件,并不强调这件事的始发时间点,例如:
In 1990, Jack began playing the guitar.
该例句表明,杰克在1990年开始了弹吉他,不强调究竟是在1990年的哪个时间点开始弹的,只是一种客观的描述。又例如:
After scoring 760 in GMAT, Jack began to applicate his dream school.
该例句表明,在考了760分后,杰克开始申请他最想去的学校了,强调了在某个时间点后,杰克开始做申请这件事。
用之于本题,显然“酒的销量上升”是在“1991年的报告”这个时间点后发生的一个事件,因此应该用begin to do。GMAT考试非常习惯考查这些甚至连美国人都不太清楚的“语法”,毕竟,这是一个曾经只设计给美国本土人的考试。
另外,particularly red wine是同位语,应和a moderate alcohol同等地位,最理想的情况是安放在alcohol身后,而不是放在consumption身后(当然,这不算是绝对错误)
C选项:提取本选项的主干则有:moderate alcohol consumption caused them to begin to grow again.
在逻辑上,不能是moderate alcohol consumption引起销量上升,应该是1991年的报告引起销量的上升。
D选项:本选项错误同选项(B)。with a reduced risk of heart disease linked in a 1991 report with moderate alcohol consumption是独立主格结构,没有问题。
E选项:提取本选项的主干则有:a reduced risk of heart disease started them to begin growing again.
start主语错误同理于选项(C)。
另外,ing短语growing again需改为不定式短语to grow again错误同选项(B)。
A去掉particularly前面的of是不是也对的?
毕老师可不可以按逻辑来理解,reduced heart diseae 是修饰 red wine 的,由此可以排除BDE, 由 in和after 来排除C
选项A(and可放在插入语前面,不影响逻辑
选项B red wine 和alcohol consumption概念不同,不能同位修饰
选项C in a 1991 report 修饰整个句子使得整个句子的主语变成酒精的消费,逻辑错误
哎,在两个考点之间犹豫,倒底该以哪一个为主呢。一个是 and找不到平行对应,一个是begin to do 与doing.想了想就以and为主吧,毕竟begin 后面跟什么感觉不到太大区别。
每一个考点对于选项都是必杀~实战的时候,选择你最有把握的考点没啥问题。
毕老师看看另外一个思路分析D选项行不行:从句子的结构形式上看,既然这个句子的重心在后面but,那么就要尽快的完成铺垫,直接交代重点。而D选项确把最重要的部分放在了最后,从形式上看,这个就不好。
十分糟糕的选法。这明显是根据答案倒推的一种解法啊,按照这个说法,难道所有的状语都不能放在主句的前面了?主句永远是重心啊,状语永远是修饰成分。一个选项,如果你想记住一个所谓的解法,一定要保证这个解法是经得起用本质去推敲的,而不是根据答案来选!

B为什么不对呢
解析已更新。
B 选项的硬伤应该是将alcohol consumption和red wine并列了吧。应该是consumption和consumption并列。所以A选项用了(that) of red wine
