可是句子什么意思啊，为什么要用BUT 转折，不应该是说，以前的11月销售的很好，所以上个11月也销售的很好吗？

作者: asl510 时间: 2015-7-23 10:46
11月销量一直很好。但是上个11月的销量，即使和以往的好成绩比，也是特别特别的好

举个例子：“黑叔叔traditionally跑得很快。but博尔特，even when compared with其他的跑得很快的黑叔叔，跑得特别快。”

even when提示让步

这句话前后的转折是这样的：

前半句：十一月的拖拉机销量一直是（全年）最好的（全年横向比较-环比）

后半句：但今年十一月的销量，即使和往年的十一月比，占得全年销售的比重是相当大得（历年纵向比较-同比）

前后比较的范围不同吧。

manhattan 6th写的：COMPARED / COMPARISON
RIGHT: IN COMPARISON WITH (or TO) horses, zebras are vicious.
A zebra can be COMPARED TO a horse in many ways.
COMPARED WITH a horse, however, a zebra is very hard to
tame.
Note: The GMAT ignores the traditional distinction between
COMPARED TO (emphasizing similarities) and
COMPARED WITH (emphasizing differences).
WRONG: WHEN COMPARED TO horses, zebras are vicious.
Zebras are MORE vicious COMPARED TO horses.

我对OA有的when compared with用法是否相对有问题有疑问。

有同样的疑问！在国外的forum上也看到过这个问题，还是得不到解答

另外，看到对这题有以下解释
"sales" should be compared with "sales".

Only A and E do that.

In E we dont have contrast. We need it to highlight that the sales are better this time.

Only A does it.

还是不懂E有啥问题。。。求NN解救

另外，看到对这题有以下解释

The conjunction“ so that ”nonsensically introduces a causal relationship between "November’s typically strong sales" and the aforementioned comparison.
so that一般引导目的状语从句，并没有对比。

可不可以帮忙解释一下B选项错在哪里？

作者: aassdd654 时间: 2016-11-18 10:02
找到答案了：
Meaning wins over all the rules.

The meaning of the sentence is that Sales in November are usually high, but the sales during the recent November overtook all previous Novembers and accounted for remarkable large share of sales.

A but sales this past November, even when compared with sales in previous Novembers,. Meaning looks pretty clear. We have contrast by the word 'but'. Sales is compared with sales.
B but even when it is compared with previous Novembers, this past November’s sales. 'it' is singular and is used wrongly with plural 'sales'
C but even when they are compared with previous Novembers, sales of light trucks this past November. Replace 'they' with Sales- but even when sales are compared with previous Novembers. Sales are compared with Novembers.
D so that compared with previous Novembers, sales of light trucks this past November. 'so that' shows result, whereas we want contrast
E so that this past November’s sales, even compared with previous Novembers’ sales,. 'so that' shows result, whereas we want contrast

A is the answer

可以翻译一下。
如果用but引导，意思就是，十一月向来是传统的销售旺季，但这个十一月尤其地旺。
如果用so that引导，意思就是，十一月想来是传统的销售旺季，以至于（所以）这个十一月尤其地旺。逻辑显然不成立，前者不构成后者的原因。

so that的官方解释为：used for saying that something happens or someone does something because of what you have just mentioned
