题目分析:
本题主要依靠一些语法变化来考查我们关于“平行”的理解。整个题目的意思是:Heirloom tomatoes这种西红柿看起来不如在超市里面它的那些兄弟,它经常是绿色的,而且是有条纹的,或者说会有一些肿块,但是,它更加美味。
选项分析:
选项A:本选项有两处错误。第一,often green and striped是两个形容词,放在此处由于定语的就近修饰原则,其必然修饰their round and red supermarket cousins。在逻辑上,“绿色的并且有条纹的”是Heirloom tomatoes。第二,本选项中or连接的两个句子是Heirloom tomatoes only look less appetizing than their round and red supermarket cousins和Heirloom tomatoes have plenty of bumps and bruises。但在逻辑上,这两句话之间没有“两者择一”的关系。
选项B:green and striped错误同选项(A);另外,or是一个连词,需要连接两个句子(参考功能平行)。
选项C:本选项错误同(A)。
选项D:另外,or是一个连词,需要连接两个句子(参考功能平行)。(也可以认为,or的身前没有与with plenty of bumps and bruises平行的对象)
选项E:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
(D) cousins; they are often green and striped, or with plenty of bumps and bruises, although
If you’re being too mechanical, you might conclude that “they” is ambiguous, because it could refer to “cousins”, “seeds”, or “tomatoes.” But we’re OK here: “they” is the subject of the second clause, and I don’t think there’s any ambiguity in GMAT-land if the subject of the second clause (“they”) refers back to the subject of the first clause (“heirloom tomatoes”).
And both the “or” and the “green and striped” finally make sense! Trouble is, we have that little problem with “although more flavorful” at the end of the sentence. In this situation, we’d need a clause following “although”, not just a random adjective. (D) is better than (A), (B), and (C), but it’s still flawed.
Heirloom tomatoes, grown from seeds saved from the previous year, only look less appetizing than their round and red supermarket cousins, often green and striped, or have plenty of bumps and bruises, but are more flavorful.
-------FROM GMATclub
OG分册对D的解释里也没有提到although在这儿意思不对,而是说the final clause is ungrammatical and should say although they are more flavorful-->即:although是连词,后面必须是句子
所以说although和but的语意差别不能作为split
要先想清楚green and striped到底是在講誰
這邊句子是在講H蕃茄
(人家都已經講了 H蕃茄看起來只不過是比較不引人食慾
比起他的表親 超市裡的圓紅蕃茄)
所以green and striped是在講H 蕃茄
ABC的green and striped都是直接修飾了圓紅蕃茄(那到底他是紅的還是綠的...)
邏輯不通
DE用分號把句子分成前後兩句
後句的they指代的是H蕃茄(前句的主格)
這樣they are green and striped才合理
D跟E的差別
第一個
是在or後面接的是with 還是have 這邊就已經可以決定是have了
因為or對等連接詞的前面是一個完整的子句 有主詞(they)有動詞(are)
所以這邊一定是用they have... 然後主詞一樣故省略
第二個
D的讓步句although在這邊出現語意就很奇怪了
因為整句話應該是要褒揚H蕃茄的好
although出現在這邊 flavorful就變得不重要了
你。。读读句意有那么困难么
本选项有两处错误。第一,often green and striped是两个形容词,放在此处由于定语的就近修饰原则,其必然修饰their round and red supermarket cousins。在逻辑上,“绿色的并且有条纹的”是Heirloom tomatoes。第二,本选项中or连接的两个句子是Heirloom tomatoes only look less appetizing than their round and red supermarket cousins和Heirloom tomatoes have plenty of bumps and bruises。但在逻辑上,这两句话之间没有“两者择一”的关系。
A主干:tomatoes too less appetizing... or have plenty of bumps 但是这种番茄的特性并不是or的关系,所以错误
当时纠结没选E是因为觉得they既可以指代tomatoes也可以指代cousins,但是要根据选项最合理的意思来读,Gmat是可以接受模糊指代的
**定语的就近修饰
选项D:另外,or是一个连词,需要连接两个句子(参考功能平行)。(也可以认为,or的身前没有与with plenty of bumps and bruises平行的对象)
with plenty of bumps 里的with有“有,用,和”的意思,不如have来的清楚。although应该是可以省略主语和be动词的(如果主语和主句主语一致)。
BCD, although表示“尽管”,不符合原句要表达的语义逻辑
red supermarket cousins 是什麼意思? 红色超市堂兄弟?
flavorful 美味的
D选项的解析(也可以认为,or的身前没有与with plenty of bumps and bruises平行的对象),前面的“often green and striped ”难道不是和“with plenty of bumps and bruises” 都能成为形容词性修饰语 跟在“they are“后面平行吗? 求破解
be with 里with是个啥成分啊 不也是表语吗???
often green and striped的形容如果,放在ABC处,由于定语的就近修饰原则,其必然修饰their round and red supermarket cousins。而在逻辑上,“绿色的并且有条纹的”肯定是Heirloom tomatoes(因为cousins是绿的)。DE就很好排除了
选项A:本选项有两处错误。第一,often green and striped是两个形容词,放在此处由于定语的就近修饰原则,其必然修饰their round and red supermarket cousins。在逻辑上,“绿色的并且有条纹的”是Heirloom tomatoes。第二,本选项中or连接的两个句子是Heirloom tomatoes only look less appetizing than their round and red supermarket cousins和Heirloom tomatoes have plenty of bumps and bruises。但在逻辑上,这两句话之间没有“两者择一”的关系。
这里说的是H西红柿的性质,是主句内容,而不是宾语的同位语。
although做状语,修饰主句;but表转折,与主句并列,甚至意思上比前面的句子更突出;“但是更好吃”显然应该做“虽然不好看”的转折主句,而不是修饰从句。
分号连接两个句子,E选项分号后面不加 and 可以嘛
已经有了their 所以they指代Ht 没问题
or是一个连词,需要连接两个句子(也可以认为,or的身前没有与with plenty of bumps and bruises平行的对象)
如果是are with D会对吗
可以,但是没有E简洁
