Although a number of excellent studies narrate the development of domestic technology and its impact on housewifery, these works do not discuss the contributions of the women employed by manufacturers and utility companies as product demonstrators and publicists, who initially promoted new and unfamiliar technology to female customers.
by manufacturers and utility companies as product demonstrators and publicists,
to be product demonstrators and publicists by manufacturers and utility companies,
to demonstrate and publicize their products by manufacturers and utility companies
by manufacturers and utility companies to be demonstrators and publicists of their products
by manufacturers and utility companies to demonstrate and publicize their products
题目分析:
想做对本题,考生必须看全整句,不能只看划线部分。很多的考点判断依据是藏在未划线部分的。
本题划线部分身前的employed是过去分词,整个分词短语employed by manufacturers and utility companies as product demonstrators and publicists是women的定语,语句结构为:
the women were employed by manufacturers and utility companies as product demonstrators and publicists.
选项分析:
A选项:Correct. 本选项在语法和逻辑上均是正确的。
B选项:首先,A is employed as B的意思是:A被雇佣为B,A is employed to be B的意思是:A被利用为B。显然地,本题的意思是女性被雇佣为产品说明者,而不是女性被利用为产品说明者。其次,划线部分身后的定语从句who initially promoted new and unfamiliar technology to female customers最近的名词为manufacturers and utility companies。在逻辑上,该定语从句描述的是product demonstrators and publicists。
C选项:划线部分身后的定语从句修饰对象错误同选项(B);A is employed to do错误同选项(B)。
D选项:A is employed to be B错误同选项(B)。
E选项:A is employed to do错误同选项(B)。
这里by...一定要紧贴着employed吗?先后顺序有关系吗?
比如A. by manufacturers and utility companies as product demonstrators and publicists,
改为A‘. as product demonstrators and publicists by manufacturers and utility companies,
by sth只是用来作干扰的,不是考点,manhattan 里面说了不必要的修饰可以删去,gmat里面会把句子写的很变态的。
by manufacturers and utility companies 放在后面的话,那who initially promoted new and unfamiliar technology to female customers就是修饰manufactures和companies了啊,这在语义上是不对的。所以 by manufacturers and utility companies 不能放在后面
