题目分析:
略
选项分析:
A选项:当consider意为“看作(regard as)”时,只能用consider A B,而不能用consider A to be B。当consider意为“认为”时,只能用consider A to be B而不能用consider A B。看起来是在考查语法,实则不然,这背后是在考查考生的逻辑推理能力。在原理上近似于不定式和名词的区别。如果在consider的宾语和宾语的补足语间添加to be,则to be B就变成了不定式短语。我们知道,当consider表示“看作”时,其约束力较弱。看作是一种客观的说法,对“A是B”这个事件没有主观的控制。但当consider表示“认为,以为”时,显然,其约束力较强。因为“认为”这个动作有较深的主观色彩,其宾补部分必然要用不定式来表达。
本题中的consider是“看作”的意思,即,EBB被看作是她那个时代最好的诗人。
B选项:比较对象不对等。在逻辑上应该是Elizabeth Barrett Browning的“成功”被她丈夫的成功掩盖。
C选项:later overshadowed by the success of her husband是过去分词短语,做伴随状语,其主语为Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetry。但在逻辑上,被掩盖的应该是她的成功,而不是她的诗歌。
D选项:Correct. 本选项在逻辑和语法上均是正确的。
E选项:比较对象有误。不能用Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetry和her husband做比较。
A,
两个问题:1.EB和success比较,错误。2."the better"只能用在句子前边已经出现了两个相比较的词,比如:Tuck and Yale are preeminent school, but TUCK is the better on MBA program. 在A中并没有先出现EB和her husband.
B, Although Elizabeth Barrett Brwoning was considered among her contemporaries as a better poet than her husband, she was later overshadowed by his success.
两个问题:1.EB和success比较,错误。2.“was considered among her contemporaries as”有歧义,一种意思是“EB被认为是她的同龄人中XXX";另一种意思是“EB被她的同龄人认为是XXX"。
C, Later overshadowed by the success of her husband, Elizabeth Barrett Brwoning's poetry had been considered among her contemporaries to be better than that of her husband.
句首的modifier修饰了poetry,而不是EB,逻辑错误。
D, Although Elizabeth Barrett browning's success was later overshadowed by that of her husband, among her contemporaries she was considered the better poet.
EB's sucess与that(=sucess) of her husband比较,正确。
E, Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poetry was considered among her contemporaries as better than her husband, but her success was later overshadowed by his husband.
EB'S poetry和her husband比较,错误; success和his husband比较,错误。
关于这个题目我还有一点想法,idiom虽然可以作为判断的依据,但是并不是最优先级,我认为SC的判断的优先级应该是:句意>平行(比较也是平行的一种)>指代>modifier>idiom
因为GMAC并没有给出idiom的正确清单,在不同的句子中有可能原来认为错误的idiom就正确,比如OG16里的这题,关于A选项的解释就没有说consider to be 是错误的,其他选项的解释里也没有说consider as是错误的,我记得manhattan上的说consider sth sth是正确用法,consider sth to be用法存疑,consider as是错误的,但是没有明确的证据能说明GMAC也这样看,或许下次的题目中又正确了呢。当然,这题如果用idiom可以迅速排出ABE,剩下CD,然后可以马上选出D,考场上可能也是挺好方法。
