E,错到离谱,摘自ron
choice (e) is TOTALLY wrong. if you can't kill choice (e) quickly, you should read through a large number of correct answers to SC questions in the official guides, just for the purpose of internalizing the writing style of the correct answers.
i can't overestimate the importance of becoming comfortable with the writing style of the gmat. in the same way you can classify language as 'shakespearean' or 'faulkner-esque' at a glance, you can also classify language as to whether you might see it on the gmat. once you achieve a certain degree of this familiarity, choice (e) and its ilk will begin to look ridiculous.
the formal reasons why choice (e) is wrong: 1, it uses the passive voice for no good reason whatsoever, and, 2, more importantly, it says only that state laws were being violated; it doesn't at all indicate the crucial fact that the ban violated the state laws. that's baaaaaadd bad bad.
剩下CD,法律的属性一般都用现在分词,避免了「过去/未来」之类的允许问题。
E的主语不对,应该是Ban而不是state laws
CD区分:
C中,违反是现在时,允许是过去式。如果“过去”允许而“现在”不允许,那么就不需要“现在”违反了,所以错误,应该两个都是现在时。
D用doing解决了这个问题

主要还是语义整个通了就都通了。
that不是引导ground的从句么??基于它违反了州法律 所以说才overturn
你应该是对的,that引导同位语从句解释ground登录 或 注册 后可以参加讨论
