题目分析:
本题长度较长,但难度不算大。大概意思为:
有很多美国的土地被乳浆草侵占了。乳浆草是一个从Eurasia来的草本植物。这个草本植物让小牛长了口腔溃疡并且代替了草和其它的小牛食物,让牧场一文不值。
选项分析:
A选项:划线部分最后的分词短语displacing grasses and other cattle food是a herbaceous plant gives mouth sores to cattle的伴随状语。但在逻辑上,由于“长口腔溃疡”和“代替草和其它的小牛食物”是乳浆草的两个方面事情,之间没有逻辑关系,因此,两者应该用并列句来表示,不能让一者为另一者的伴随状语(若是伴随状语,则两者变为了修饰关系)。
另外,displace句和render句之间应用修饰关系而不是并列关系。这是因为,代替了草和其它的小牛食物的结果是“让牧场一文不值(render rangeland worthless)”。
B选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
C选项:按照本选项的语法结构,having milky sap that gives mouth sores to cattle和displacing grasses and other cattle food是并列关系,但在逻辑上,两者不能并列。拥有 milky sap是这个草本植物的固有属性(无论这个草在哪里),而“代替草和其它的小牛食物”是这个草本植物入侵美国后的结果。
D选项:本选项缺少谓语动词。选项末的displaces和renders均为单数动词,不可能作为复数名词about 5 million acres in the United States的谓语动词。
E选项:本选项缺少谓语动词。
在B里,that从句是修饰到草的,因为that只能用于限定性修饰,如果修饰sap的话不能加逗号。以及,gmat里定语可以跳过介宾短语优先修饰前面的名词。
