Organized in 1966 by the Fish and Wildlife Service, the Breeding Bird Survey uses annual roadside counts along established routes for monitoring of population changes of as many as, or of more than 250 bird species, including 180 songbirds.
for monitoring of population changes of as many as, or of
to monitor population changes of as many, or
to monitor changes in the populations of
that monitors population changes of
that monitors changes in populations of as many as, or
"to monitor" is the only one of the three beginnings that truly makes sense here.
choice B: "... as many, or 250..."
—> this is one of the worst choices i've seen in a while.
e.g.,
• "as many" is nonsense;
• "or" is nonsense;
• "or" connects non-parallel structures;
etc.
是的。这就类似于,twice as many as sth.和twice sth.相同,as many as可以省略。
请问老师原文的意思不是表达的“大于等于”250只鸟吗?如果去掉as many as 就变成了“大于”,算不算是改变了原句的意思了?
• "as many as ... or more than 250" makes no sense, since that description encompasses literally ALL numbers (it is saying "either ≤ 250 or > 250")https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/forums/post114516.html#p114516

那是个要连接平行的关键词啊。。
as many as ... or more than 250 重复了,意思就是more than 250 (等于或大于250/大于250)
之前做过一个题 as many 表示数量相当的,但前面要加N,排除B;
剩下C
A、monitoring + of 无宾语
B、as many, or表述有误
DE、routes自己不能monitor,况且主谓不一致
e.g.,
last year, i read 100 books; i have not read as many (= 100) this year.
there's nothing like this in the sentence at hand.
do进行对比
2) GMAT考试中经常出现将相等比较as...as和more...than...形式比较合并在一起写的错误或者故
意复杂化的表示方法;正确表达应该是:at least as great as或者as great as or greater than,或者
直接用greater than。
(B)as many结构不完整,应改为of as many as or more than,(A)of as many as, or of more than结构复杂笨拙,改为
of as many as or more than更好.
B.还少了as
e.g., Our restaurant is capable of serving as many as 500 people at once.
this means "≤ 500".
This newspaper costs as much as that one.
This newspaper costs 50 cents, as much as that one. (Notice "comma + as much as that one" is now a modifier describing the price.)
所以有具体数量时不需用as many as,除非是表示一种强调(牛津词典)
