Hurricanes at first begin traveling from east to west, because that direction is the way the prevailing winds in the tropics blow, but they then veer off toward higher latitudes, in many cases changing direction toward the east before dissipating over the colder, more northerly waters or over land.
(A) Hurricanes at first begin traveling from east to west, because that direction is the way the prevailing winds in the tropics blow, but
(B) At first, hurricanes travel from east to west, because that is the direction of the prevailing winds in the tropics, but （OA）
(C) While hurricanes travel from east to west at first, the direction of the prevailing winds blowing in the tropics, and
(D) Because hurricanes at first travel from east to west, since it is the direction of the prevailing winds in the tropics,

My Q: B that裸奔可以吗。。

104 vs.

Heating-oil prices are expected to be higher this year than last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil than they were last year.
(A) Heating-oil prices are expected to be higher this year than last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil than they were (OA)
(B) Heating-oil prices are expected to rise higher this year over last because refiners pay about $5 a barrel for crude oil more than they did
(C) Expectations are for heating-oil prices to be higher this year than last year’s because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel for crude oil more than they did
(D) It is the expectation that heating-oil prices will be higher for this year over last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil now than what they were
(E) It is expected that heating-oil prices will rise higher this year than last year’s because refiners pay about $5 a barrel for crude oil more than they did

My Q:
OG90 （如下）对于错误选项A的解释是，The sentence as written makes an illogical comparison between prices at the producer level and a time period (a year ago); surely the intended comparison is between such prices now and those of a year ago.--也就是说现在的价格和过去的价格不是同一个价格，所以不能用同一个主语，然而上面的题目A却是正确的。
90 Prices at the producer level are only 1.3 percent higher now than a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South are hurting crops and therefore raised corn and soybean prices.
(A) than a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South are hurting crops and therefore raised
(B) than those of a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South are hurting crops and therefore raising
(C) than a year ago and are going down, despite floods in the Midwest and drought in the South, and are hurting crops and therefore raising
(D) as those of a year ago and are going down, even though floods in the Midwest and drought in the South hurt crops and therefore raise
(E) as they were a year ago and are going down, despite floods in the Midwest and drought in the South, and are hurting crops and therefore raising

111 According to recent studies comparing the nutritional value of meat from wild animals and meat from domesticated animals, wild animals have less total fat than do livestock fed on grain and more of a kind of fat they think is good for cardiac health.
(A) wild animals have less total fat than do livestock fed on grain and more of a kind of fat they think is
(B) wild animals have less total fat than livestock fed on grain and more of a kind of fat thought to be-OA
(C) wild animals have less total fat than that of livestock fed on grain and have more fat of a kind thought to be
(D) total fat of wild animals is less than livestock fed on grain and they have more fat of a kind thought to be
(E) total fat is less in wild animals than that of livestock fed on grain and more of their fat is of a kind they think is

My Q: 为什么B没有歧义， have less fat than livestock--可以理解成Fat vs. livestock, 也可以理解为wild animals vs livestock

138 Although she was considered among her contemporaries to be the better poet than her husband, later Elizabeth Barrett Browning was overshadowed by his success.
(A) Although she was considered among her contemporaries to be the better poet than her husband, later Elizabeth Barrett Browning was overshadowed by his success.
(B) Although Elizabeth Barrett Browning was considered among her contemporaries as a better poet than her husband, she was later overshadowed by his success.
(C) Later overshadowed by the success of her husband, Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetry had been considered among her contemporaries to be better than that of her husband.
(D) Although Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s success was later overshadowed by that of her husband, among her contemporaries she was considered the better poet.--OA
(E) Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetry was considered among her contemporaries as better than her husband, but her success was later overshadowed by his.

My Q: 答案说如下，但是我记得GWD模拟题上和Ron有说过 Her/his/its是可以指代道noun's sth里的noun的，因为这些不是pronoun, 而是processive pronoun, 所以可以指代后面的所有格
C The subject here is Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetry, not Elizabeth Barrett Browning, so the antecedent of her in her husband could comically be taken to be Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poetry.
且答案D改变原句的重心，把句子的转折反了一下也没事吗。。

首先，我觉得你犯了一个初学者特别容易犯的错误：找对的那个，而不是找错的少的那个。
你注意到不管是语法题还是逻辑题问的都是better one或者best one，为什么如此严谨的GMAC不用correct one呢？
因为正确答案是比出来的，而不是选出来的。

Q2
A与B相比，A的语义中有个redundancy：At first和begin，at first是开始，begin也是开始，两者语义有重复。而且A中的at first介词位置不好，有修饰Hurricanes的嫌疑。综上，B比A好。that如何用最多算是个争议用法，既然GMAC都没说答案必须是完全正确的，那我们就选那个错误少的。这题你给外国人选，选100次他们也选B。

Q90
CDE被排除没有疑议吧？这题最后就是AB里面二选一：A, therefore B. 问你事件（或者动作）A和B哪个是因？哪个是果？因和果的先后顺序是不是果一定不能发生在因前面？再看选项A：floods are hurting... and therefore raised....从时态上表达的先后顺序是不是raised先，hurting后？这符合therefore表达的意思吗？A的语义有明显错误。

Q104
除了A剩下的都有明显的错误，就只能选A。这题不用last做Decision Point肯本不影响解题。

关于OG的解释：
GMAC作为OG的编写方和GMAT考试的出题方，他的立场是矛盾的。你能指望它把老底一五一十的告诉你？想一想大学每门最后一堂课画重点的时候，老师画重点的时候不知道出什么题吗？为什么某一章一道题都没考，他还让你回去看？

Q111
同样是比出来的：
DE首先排除，主语就不对。
A中最后they think中的they明显无所指，前面整个句子都没有能think的复数名词。
最后只剩下BC:
此时我们就要考虑比较的对象到底是fat vs fat还是wild animals vs livestock了。注意have less total fat这么一个结构：less修饰的是fat还是have？必须且只能是修饰have做副词。原因你想想。那么就只能选B了。我也承认B中加了do更好，但是根据其他4个选项来看，就只能选B。还是那个原则：选错的少的。

Q139
首先语法题中根本就没有“原句”这么一说。你是如何知道ABCDE哪个是"原句"？
还是比吧：
AB先排除，EBB was overshadowed by his success，不符合逻辑：EBB不可能被“成功”overshadowed，要么EBB的成功被别人的成功overshadowed，要么EBB被某人overshadowed。
同理C也被排除：EBB's poetry被the success of her husband overshadowed，错误。
E中比较对象不对等：EBB's poetry better than her husband，错误。
最后就只剩下D。

正确选项永远是比出来的。

你好！想请教下，Q2中的A选项是不是还有一个错误？感觉A选项中“the way the prevailing winds in the tropics blow”的修饰有问题，把这句简化一下就是“the way winds blow",也就是blow修饰”the way"，事实上，我认为只有“the way in which the winds blow"中的blow的修饰才对。

可以。不过这个DP的效率很低：因为这个DP只能排除掉一个选项（A vs BCDE），对于AB之间的选项用这个DP可以，做题的话，我觉得这个DP不划算。

Q2中的A选项大家怎么看，
"the direction" he "the way" 是不是也redundant呢？
