题目分析:
像蚂蚁一样,白蚁有一个完整的社会结构,在这个社会结构里一些个体繁殖,剩余的个体通过照顾幼崽、收集食物、筑巢和对抗入侵者来服务这个种群。
首先要搞清谁和谁对比:ants 和 termite; 其次,未划线部分“the rest serve the colony...”是个完整的句子,那么它要和前面一个完整的句子并列,且符合逻辑。
选项分析:
A选项:“the rest serve the colony”错误地和“the social structure includes individuals”平行,但应该是the rest serve和few individuals reproduce 平行:在这个社会结构中,一些个体做什么,另一些个体做什么
B选项:“the rest serve the colony”错误地和“termites have social structure”平行
C选项:“the rest serve the colony”错误地和“social structure is elaborate”平行
D选项:正确
E选项:“the rest serve the colony”错误地和“social structure is elaborate”平行
On the GMAT exam, the use of "like" vs. "as" has to do with what two things are being compared. We use "like" to compare two nouns, and "as" to compare two actions or phrases with verbs attached to them.
LIKE = noun + noun (The yellow car, like the red car, comes with a sunroof.)
AS = verb phrase + verb phrase (My aunt bakes soft oatmeal cookies, as her mother did when she was a child.)
