标题: 忍不住分享一个在gmatclub上看到的关于“平行中省略”的干货
平行中省略，特别是比较中的省略往往很是恶心啊！
有的成分明明上一题可以省，结果下一题又不可以省了~
而且OG就有题目考到，OG的35题贴上~~~
Traffic safety officials predict that drivers will be equally likely to exceed the
proposed speed limit as the current one.
(A) equally likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as
(B) equally likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are
(C) equally likely that they will exceed the proposed speed limit as
(D) as likely that they will exceed the proposed speed limit as
(E) as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as they are
虽然选出来了，但是D选项当时怎么也搞不懂为何省略了they are,感觉自己懵懵懂懂知道一些什么，又没有形成体系~
然后就在gmatclub上看到了一位manager级别的大神贴的啊~直戳我心
贴上来分享给大家~其实我觉得还是要弄清语意啊~
Rule tested- Parallelism (ellipsis)
"toexceed" is implied in the second half of the sentence.
Thisis a case of ellipsis in comparison. In this some words omitted from thesentence to make it more concise. Both noun and verb can be omitted. Theomitted words should be present in the first part of the sentence in the sameform. 名词动词皆可省
Jim'spen is brighter than Alex's (pen). - Correct! ("pen" is implies)
Jim issmarter than Alex (is). - Correct! ("is" is implied)
Theomission of a noun for concision is straightforward. Just make sure that the 2nouns in the sentence can be logically compared. 只要逻辑语意正确，名词是都可以省略的。
Butthere are certain exceptions when you are deciding whether to include averb in the second half of the sentence.
重点来了，那么哪些时候动词不可以省略呢？就像D选项少了they are就不正确了。
1.Tense Shift时态转换的时候
If theverb tense changes from the first to the second half of the sentence, then theverb must not be omitted in the second half.
· Youlook more beautiful think year than last year. - Incorrect
· Youlook more beautiful this year than you did last year.- Correct
2.MeaningAmbiguity- 省略了就会造成歧意的时候
Do notomit the verb if doing so will make the sentence’s meaning ambiguous.
I lovemy dog more than my friend. - Incorrect
Here,the intended meaning could be that I love my dog more than I love my friend, OR
that Ilove my dog more than my friend does. Since the omission of the verb in thesecond half of the sentence distorts the meaning, this sentence is incorrect onthe GMAT.
· I love my dog more than I lovemy friend.- Correct!
I lovemy dog more than my friend does.- Correct!
Coming to the option D and E
Option D makes a parallelism error. If wesimplify, we get the following structures:
D. Drivers will be
as likely that they will exceed the proposedspeed limit
as the current one (speed limit)
Comparinga clause with a noun phrase.
E. Drivers will be
as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit
as they are (to exceed ) thecurrent one (speed limit)
Comparingtwo clauses.
干货趁热吃着，大家还有什么好的建议都提提提~~~
一起进步！

E 选项正确可以理解， 比较的对象是“will be likely to ...”和“are likely to ...”, 是不同时间下动作的比较。 如果有F选项比较的是speed limit：as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as the current one. 省略的是the drivers will be as likely to exceed the proposed speed limit as (they will be likely to exceed) the current one.应该也是正确的吧？

感谢LZ分享~
但是我有一个疑问，既然这边这道例题不存在时态的变化那么就应该属于有歧义
那这个D选项的歧义在哪里呢？
作者: 油闹家 时间: 2016-7-16 10:58
D省略了they are就会造成歧义啊……
你想表达的是?我貌似没有太get到你的点哎……
作者: Bug君。 时间: 2016-7-16 12:06
因为你前面举得例子里面I lovemy dog more than my friend就有两个意思：
I love my dog more than I love my friend（比起喜欢我的朋友，我更喜欢我的狗）
I lovemy dog more than my friend does（我比我朋友更喜欢我的狗）
这就是我们说的歧义，所以这里不能随便省略
但是D选项我没太看出来省略会造成什么样的歧义（可能阅读水平捉急qwq），能不能请LZ像上面这个例句一样的帮忙分析一下~thx~

= =省略有可能有歧义，不省略肯定对。

顶楼主！ 楼主怎么使用gmat club呢？我怎么找不到做题入口？到处都是交钱的？求楼主贴个常用链接。
作者: 油闹家 时间: 2016-8-25 09:09
我就是搜索gamt club的啊，做那种试卷应该是要钱的
作者: everjing 时间: 2016-8-25 13:54
马克！！！！！！！！！！！！！！
作者: zhaichaofan 时间: 2016-9-5 17:20
歧义在于，D：他们将会超过proposed speed的可能性=他们将会超过current speed的可能性
E：他们将会超过proposed speed 的可能性=他们现在会超过current speed的可能性

这道题应该是存在了时态变化，一个是将来时will exceed， 一个是一般现在是they are （likely to exceed）

省略的部分必须是句子之前提到过的，后面这个句子D省略的部分是they are, 但是前面的是they will，所以这个部分不能省略

作者: stephysit 时间: 2016-11-28 20:43
但是D选项的错误应该是drivers be likely that？
sb be likely不可以接that从句？ 如果这里改正了以后是不是就不存在因为时态转换而出现导致的歧义？？
求解答~~
作者: Bradz 时间: 2016-11-29 12:20
一般来说somebody be likely that是不对的，但也不是绝对的。
比如it is likely that Chelsea will win this year就可以，但一般这种句式都是it is likely that，而这个it一般都是不特别指代。

说一下我的看法：D：be likely that ...在曼哈顿上已经列入是wrong的。还有一点，这里的歧义我认为是：as likely that they will exceed the proposed speed limit as the current one will exceed the proposed speed limit. 所以这里不能用省略。
