标题: excepting和except的区别 [打印本页] 作者: jingliu097 时间: 2015-8-21 11:13 标题: excepting和except的区别 如题，求问~以下是曼哈顿的例句 EXCEPTRIGHT: EXCEPT FOR a final skirmish, the war was over.
SUSPECT: BESIDES a final skirmish, the war was over.
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF a final skirmish, the war was over.
EXCEPTING a final skirmish, the war was over. EXCEPTINGWe must all obey the law, not [without] excepting the king.
另外请问except后面所带介词有讲究吗？常见的是except for

我的理解大概是这样的，
科林斯词典对此的解释是： You use except or except for to introduce the only thing or person that prevents a statement from being completely true. 除了… 这里的except for是作为一个短语，值得注意的是，如果except作为动词的时候后面千万不可以加for！！is non-idiomatic
第二个词是except的动名词，作伴随
关于gmat这个idioms的用法还可以有
**EXPECT RIGHT:
We EXPECT the price TO FALL.
The price IS EXPECTED TO FALL.
We EXPECT THAT the price WILL FALL.
IT IS EXPECTED THAT the price WILL FALL.
Inflation rose more than we EXPECTED.
There IS an EXPECTATION THAT the price will fall.
SUSPECT:
There IS an EXPECTATION the price WILL FALL.
There IS an EXPECTATION OF the price FALLING.
Inflation rose more than we EXPECTED IT TO.
Inflation rose more than we EXPECTED IT WOULD.
WRONG:
The price IS EXPECTED FOR IT TO FALL.
IT IS EXPECTED THAT the price SHOULD FALL.
关于except后面所带的介词有无讲究，在OG15中118题有考到，
题目我也找出来了：Mauritius was a British Colony for almost 200 years, excepting for the domains of administration and teaching, the English language was never really spoken on the island.
(A) excepting for
(B) except in
(C) but except in
(D) but excepting for
(E) with the Exception of
正确答案是选C 如果不理解的话可以看看ron的解释 https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/forums/mauritius-was-a-british-colony-t8040.html作者: jingliu097 时间: 2015-8-22 09:10
