OG 31---到底题的原意从哪儿判断啊？

31. Unlike computer skills or other technical skills, there is a disinclination on the part of many people to recognize the degree to which their analytical skills are weak.

(A) Unlike computer skills or other technical skills, there is a disinclination on the part of many people to recognize the degree to which their analytical skills are weak.

(B) Unlike computer skills or other technical skills, which they admit they lack, many people are disinclined to recognize that their analytical skills are weak.

(C) Unlike computer skills or other technical skills, analytical skills bring out a disinclination in many people to recognize that they are weak to a degree.

(D) Many people, willing to admit that they lack computer skills or other technical skills, are disinclined to recognize that their analytical skills are weak.

(E) Many people have a disinclination to recognize the weakness of their analytical skills while willing to admit their lack of computer skills or other technical skills.

Choice D is best. Choice A illogically compares skills to a disinclination; choice B compares skills to many people. Choice C makes the comparison logical by casting analytical skills as the subject of the sentence, but it is awkward and unidiomatic to say skills bring out a disinclination. Also in C, the referent of

they is unclear, and weak to a degree changes the meaning of the original statement. In E, have a disinclination... while willing is grammatically incomplete, and admit their lack should be admit to their lack. By making people the subject of the sentence, D best expresses the intended contrast, which pertains not so much to skills as to people's willingness to recognize different areas of weaknes.

感觉这到题的D,E选项改变题意了啊，谁说大家愿意承认计算机技能差了？只是更不愿意承认分析能力差啊？

解释中说E选项is grammatically incomplete, 不明白为什么，while doing 不是现在分词的最常用法吗？

到底题的原意从哪儿判断啊？

好问题!

1. unlike有指出另一方具有相反特性的作用. 所以说unlike computer skills or other technical skills,人们不愿承认.....的时候, 也就表明人们愿意承认前者. 原文的意思由A判断, 除非明显不和逻辑.

2. 我也有过类似的疑问关于while doing, 确实见过while doing....(有一个OG中的例子是while reducing....), 但注意这里的willing不是doing, 而是一个形容词, 表"愿意".

谢版主，解释的好！

但是原文的意思由A判断有什么根据吗？

替薰衣紫草继续回答你的问题, 首先unlike表示对比, 这个在原文中已经给出, 这个对比意义是不可以变更的.

其次, 分词可以表示让步, 相当于although的感觉, 这个可以在语法书中找到相应的例子, 所以D其实用了更好的方式表达了让步的含意, 结构更加严谨, 为什么不选呢?

OG对SC的instruction你可以去看一看, 其中有一条就是明确表示原文的意思根据什么来判断.

真的阿，才知道，多谢了，能给个例子吗

我个人比较倾向于：be willing to do是个固定不可拆开的用法，倒不是说while所接成分与主句have a disinclination的谓语动词不同。

Avantasia · 发表于 2005-5-27 13:30:00

OG31的D就是一个非常好的例子, willing这里相当于引出一个让步的although的感觉.
