PREP-56，请指教

wei_wangyan

谁能帮忙解释一下B错误的具体原因是什么？谢谢！

是in 1999的位置？偶觉得这里没有歧义。还是with the sole intent that they will sell中的they有指代歧义？

正确选项C中的with the sole intent of selling也很奇怪，通常都是with the intent to do的。

sell在这里作不及物动词吗？那意思好像不太对，因为sell做不及物动词时主语通常是sth，意思是“卖出...”；如果作及物动词，A中有宾语的表达with the sole intent of selling them貌似更好一些。

请大家指点。

56. The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters, people who register the Internet domain names of high-profile companies in hopes of reselling the rights to those names for a profit, led to passing the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act in 1999, allowing companies to seed up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling them later.

A  passing the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act in 1999, allowing（这里allowing的主语是The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters不对）companies to seed up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling them later.

B the passage of the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act in 1999, which allows companies to seed up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent that they will sell
    （独立主格做状语形式不对，没有with + noun + 从句的）

C the passage in 1999 of the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, which allows companies to seed up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling

D the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, which was（which is多余） passed in 1999, and it (指代不明，不清楚是法典还是The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters)allows companies to seek up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent to sell.

E the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, passed in 1999, and it(指代不明，不清楚是法典还是The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters) allows companies to seek up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling.

不知道这么看对不对，供参考：

我看到

the passage of the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act in 1999, which allows companies to seed up to $100000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent that they will sell

我觉得后半句是：people register domain names with the sole intent to sell them later.

而B"they will sell it later"能用来表示目的吗？目的是sell，不是they will sell 。我倒觉得如果比起指代不清楚，更像是重复。

C 就很直接，目的就是卖

A 我觉得最别扭的地方是allowing，会不会有歧义，和passing闹不清楚是什么pass，什么allow。

it 指代  cybersquatters ？

单复数不一样的算指代不清楚吗？

貌似DE改变了原文的重心 有点不太对头

谢谢mattus和soniashi。

我误以为with the sole intent that...中的that是作intent的定语呢。现在似乎明白点了。

关于DE，我认为错误的原因是一样的：and it allows...是独立的句子，应该与主句并列，无法与which引导的定语从句并列（但逻辑上应该与定从which was passed并列的，因为DE用it指代Act）。

it不能指代cyberquatters,只能指代proliferation，至于原句重心说，尚且不能苟同～我一直不相信有原句这种东西存在的。

是啊，就算that做定语，intent也不能卖啊～

对于DE，现在我感觉是GMAT的一个考点了，就是逻辑并列与结构并列不一致，但是不知道要练多少遍的题，才能够直接有这种感觉…
