As it is with traditional pharmacies, on-line drugstores rely on prescriptions to be successful, since it
is primarily prescriptions that attract the customers, who then also buy other health-related items.

其中红色的部分是固定结构as be th case with,黑色的事两个相比较的主要成分，其中一个是主句主语，一个是with之后的比较成，这里两个名词不需要概念上严格的完全对等，我们注意到两者之间只是有一个analogy的关系，一个是具体的概念，一个是all other cases similar.
注意第一个句子中看似比较结构，其实不然，如果是严格比较结构，那么是traditional pharmacies和prescription比较，比较对象不对等，但是实际上他是一个意义上的比较，是traditional pharmacies和后面的online drugstores情况进行analogy，
可以理解为As the case is with traditional pharmacies，其中case，指prescriptions are the cornerstone ，As作连词表比较。
同理下面的几句话，As the case was with most genetically modified crops。注意绿色部分是比较对象的修饰语，case在这里指produced by profit-motivated seed companies
As the case would be with any star of... case这里指后面整个假设的情况，注意后面的once引导的条件状从，典型的主将从现形式。

这里我们注意到第一题有个选项B as with the case
这里再总结一下一楼贴出的帖子中的讨论和我的想法
同样As with. 指的比较的是具体的个例和all other cases similar
这里有一个问题as with如果是，as(be the case)with的省略，那不就是是主语的伴随状语的省略形式吗？
可是白勇讲状语从句的省略形式不可以是:
连词＋介词短语或名词短语，只有once 和whether例外。
看一下例句
From Collins Cobuild 4.0
With breast cancer, as with many common diseases, there is no obvious breakthrough on the horizon...
As with any drug taken in excess, your body can build up a tolerance to it.
As with all oily hair treatments, shampoo needs to be applied first.
As with many technological revolutions, you are unlikely to be aware of it.
As with other single parents, economic needs influenced Schramm's decision to live in a New Beginnings community.
As with the other Nutrigroups, as you process, and add salt and fat, the Nutripoints go down.
You can mortgage a condo and borrow on your investment as with a regular house.
Keep in mind, though, as with the movement of the left knee, the raising of the left heel must be in reaction to the upper body turn.
As with any lost pet, notes Krisch, bird owners should not stop looking after only a week or two.我们可以看到，as with后跟的''all other similar cases''analogy的对象不一定是结构上的主语，比如any drug比较的不是body而是后面的it所指的药物，省略了case也就是build up a tolerance
同样other single parents 比较对象也不是economic needs而是Schramn一家
和As be the case with 一样，不强调结构上绝对平行对等
甚至比较的对象可以是后面整个句子，比如
As with all oily hair treatments, shampoo needs to be applied first.
实际上all oil hair treatment比较对等的是后面句子，因为整个句子都是一种treatment的描述。

总而言之，这个关于连词+介词或名词短语除了once, whether以外不可行的问题，我认为这里as with不要理解成主语的伴随状语，简单的理解成一个固定的介词短语就好，类似于Like, 后面只加名词，但是又不像like强调绝对的比较对象对等。
As be the case with 和 as with的比较对等在两句话中需要体现，但是不是完全强硬和主语对等，可以通过意义来解释，因为相当于省略了一个be the casw

BUT 做介词
不引导PARALLEL structurePaleontologist Stephen Jay Gould has argued that many biological traits are not the products of natural selection, favored due to their enhancement of reproduction or survival, but that they are simply random by-products of other evolutionary developments.

Difference between C and D
刚做错的一道题，gmatclub上解答非常好
ok I will give it a shot at explaining.
According to the parallelism rule, yes the [are] is optional, BUT, sometimes it necessary.
This is one example where its necessary since there is a modifier that clouds the parallelism. Meaning the ", but simply random byproducts..." could be confused as a sub modifier of "survival" or the first modifying phrase.
So ", but are..." construction, removes this confusion by realining the focus of the sentence to the original stem of the sentence. i.e "... are not the products of natural selection, <modifier>, but are ..."
So here, the most important two key points are
Be not, but(be)
The be after but cannot be omitted if people may consider but a preposition

RON: rhetorically, the "not only ... but also" construction is used for 2 parallel items that REINFORCE each other.
example:
weight training not only increases muscle mass and strength but also boosts bone density. --> notice that the two effects mentioned are both positive effects.
in this sentence, the 2 effects are CONTRASTING: the first half (farmland/houses/furniture) is positive, but the second half (erosion/deforestation) is negative.
thus, "not only ... but also" is inappropriate; just use traditional "but (also)", by itself, instead. that's exactly what choice (d) doesit's really no different from any other "but" construction that uses 2 subjects.
e.g:
john went to the party, but jim stayed home.
this is the same sort of thing; the only difference is that both of the 2 subjects refer to the same person/thing, so you use a pronoun for the second one.

that's a whole clause/sentence, with a subject AND a verb. (the subject and "are" are in inverted order)

• NOT ..BUT...
[size=14.0084px]·"not X butY": (not. ..but rather/instead 结构相同意义不同由于adv不同)
this construction implies that X is what's "normal" or "expected", and that Y is what's actually true.
e.g.,
I was surprised to learn that Ella was not Clint's biological daughter but in fact his adopted daughter, since her facial features so closely resemble his.
(here, since the girl looks so much like her dad, we EXPECT to find out that she's his biological daughter.)
• "X but Y":
this just implies a contrast, but NOT any expectation.
(in THIS PARTICULAR sentence——the "X" part includes the word "not".)
e.g.,
I am not a mechanic, but can perform basic maintenance on non-hybrid cars.
[size=14.0084px]
clearly, (a) creating farmland and (b) giving consumers cheap houses and furniture are two different, independent effects.
(b) doesn't describe (a), and isn't intimately related to (a) in any way, so the use of a modifier here is illogical.
note that, in the correct answer, these two effects are placed in parallel with "and" -- an interpretation that makes much more sense.
'having amassed' describes the situation AT PRESENT—after the 'amassing' has occurred.
if the modifier were 'amassing', then your observation would be pertinent... but it isn't.

，IF+pp.修饰主句
修饰主句主语的Subordinating CONJ. 和 TO+consequence
RON: If you have a modifier of the form (subordinating conjunction) + (participle), then, no matter where that modifier is placed, it should describe the subject of the clause to which it is attached.
for instance, all of the following sentences have the same meaning:
although exhausted from a long day of work, james still played football with his son.
james, although exhausted from a long day of work, still played football with his son.
james still played football with his son, although exhausted from a long day of work.
in all of these examples, the modifier is talking about james, not james's son. (the wording of the last one is a little bit wonky, but wonky wordings are not tested on this exam.)
If you have subject + action + to __consequence__, in which ____ is a consequence, then the ____ still has the same agent as the previous action"”i.e., the subject of the sentence.
E.g.,
I dug a hole in the ground to store valuables.
--> This sentence implies that I, personally, want to store valuables in the hole. If I am digging the hole so that someone else can bury things, I need to re-structure the sentence.

1) there's NO such construction as "A, B, but C". i.e., "but" can't link three things in the way that "and" or "or" could.
2) it makes no sense to put all 3 of these things in parallel, because they don't belong in parallel; the last two are an explanation of the first one. i.e., the last two things are an explanation of the idea that these shoppers "do very little impulse shopping".

not all ambiguous pronouns are incorrect!
1) if you see an AMBIGUOUS PRONOUN that is REPLACED BY THE CORRECT NOUN in OTHER ANSWER CHOICES, then ELIMINATE the ambiguous pronoun and keep the specific noun.
HOWEVER,
2) if you see an ambiguous pronoun that is NOT replaced by the correct noun in any of the other answer choices, then DON'T eliminate
in general, OBJECTS OF PREPOSITIONS are very rarely the antecedents of pronouns.
According to a survey of graduating medical students conducted by the Association of American Medical Colleges, minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice in socioeconomically deprived areas.
(A) minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice
(B) minority graduates are nearly four times more likely than other graduates who plan on practicing
(C) minority graduates are nearly four times as likely as other graduates to plan on practicing
(D) it is nearly four times more likely that minority graduates rather than other graduates will plan to practice
(E) it is nearly four times as likely for minority graduates than other graduates to plan to practice
OA is C
RON: The biggest problem with D is its poor idiomatic construction. You don't say 'it is X times MORE likely that A will happen, RATHER THAN B'; 'more' is supposed to go with 'THAN', and is incompatible with 'rather than'. The proper construction would be 'it is X times more likely that A will happen than that B will happen.' Better than either of these, though, is the more compact form
: 'A is X times more likely to happen than is B.'
Mixed with an equal part of water, ethylene glycol, a compound commonly used as an automotive antifreeze, is effective at temperatures as low as -30 degrees Fahrenheit.
A. temperatures as low
B. temperatures so low
C. as low temperatures
D. as few
E. as little
The OA is A
RON: "at" is a preposition. prepositions must be followed by nouns; "as low..." is not a noun.
(by contrast, "temperatures" -- which follows "at" in the correct answer -- is a noun.)
The reason why C is wrong is that:[size=14.007px] AS+adj.+singular n+ AS or
AS+adj.+(much, many few, little)plural n+ AS
The Environmental Protection Agency frequently puts mandatory controls on toxic substances that present as little risk as one in a million chances to cause cancer.

(D) a risk as little as one chance in a million for causing
(E) a risk as little as one chance in a million for it to cause
The OA is B
RON:"in" is a preposition.
it can be placed right in front of a noun: i am in school.
it can be placed in front of adj + noun:xxxx happens in two sets of circumstances.
in the same way, it can also be placed in front of larger constructions that fulfill the same role as a noun.
in this case, "as little x as y" plays the role of a noun.

DASH & HYPHEN
DASH : (set off modifier)EMPHASIS & IRONY
example:
Joe, who is from Miami, complained about the cold of the Las Vegas winter. --> no irony; this makes perfect sense, since las vegas is much colder than miami in winter. therefore, no reason to use dashes.
Joe -- who is from Duluth -- complained about the cold of the Las Vegas winter. --> extreme irony, since duluth is about 70 degrees colder than las vegas in the winter.
HYPHEN(一半长，COMPOUND WORD) :
(set off modifier)1.EMPHASIS & IRONY, 2.NAME A LIST, 3.=COLONS
there are three main reasons for the use of dashes.
1) dashes can be used in the place of commas, to express some degree of surprise or irony at the content of the modifier that is being set off
examples:
John-- who is from alaska -- complained that winters in san francisco were cold.
(2) dashes may also be used as a substitute for commas to set off a modifier that NAMES people or things, especially if there is a LIST of such people/things.
example:
three of the players -- john, joe, and sammy -- and their wives were absent from the team banquet.
--> in this sentence, it's actually imperative that we use the dashes, since the sentence would be ambiguous if you just used commas:
three of the players, john, joe, and sammy, and their wives were absent from the team banquet.
there are two possible meanings for this version: (a) three unnamed players, john, joe, sammy, and all six of their wives; or (b) the above intended meaning.
3) dashes can be used to replace colons. (in any context)

- AS A RESULT OF √
- , WITH THE RESULT THAT√
- , RESULTING FROM × ☞时间顺序矛盾，present participle 表示动作与主句动作同时发生，
☞但是result表示发生在主句动作以后- RESULTING IN THE ACT OF CAUSING × ☞结果不是act,是act causes的事情
PREPOSITION +N+ CAUSING... × 【WITH特殊】prep phrase后面不能跟V-ING
if you're talking about a result, you normally use possessive-like constructions.
Something has a result ＝ an action's results = the results of an action = , with the result that ＝as a result of an action
As the honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed, staying where it is inserted, this results in the act of stinging causing the bee to sustain a fatal injury.
A. As the honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed, staying where it is inserted, this results in the act of stinging causing
B. As the heavily barbed stinger of the honeybee stays where it is inserted, with the result that the act of stinging causes
C. The honeybee’s stinger, heavily barbed and staying where it is inserted, results in the fact that the act of stinging causes
D. The heavily barbed stinger of the honeybee stays where it is inserted, and results in the act of stinging causing
E. The honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed and stays where it is inserted, with the result that the act of stinging causes
OA is E
RON: first off,× the construction (preposition) + NOUN + VERBing is WRONG,× unless the preposition refers directly to the NOUN. (因为后面的VERBing动作因为是modifier可省略.)
for instance:
i've never heard of bees stinging dogs
WRONG. × you've heard of bees themselves; √you've heard of their stinging dogs.
i have a picture of my cousin playing hockey.
CORRECT. this time, the picture is actually of my cousin
...results in the act of stinging causing...
WRONG. × result in the act of stinging itself; √ results in what is caused by the act of stinging.
A+D: wrong because of "...results in the act of stinging causing...".
A: the pronoun "this" in (a) doesn't refer to any particular noun.
C+D: you can't say "the stinger results in...".
"TAKEAWAY:
you can only say√ "X results in Y" when X is an ACTION. × if X is an OBJECT,
-B-
choice (b) misuses the connector "as".
the connector "as" connects two complete sentences BY ITSELF. if "as" is used to connect two complete sentences, it should NOT be used in conjunction with any other connector words.
in choice (b), "AS" and "WITH(不接完整句子)" are used together. the use of either of these prohibits the use of the other,否则不成句子
PREPOSITION +N+ CAUSING... × 【WITH特殊】
"with" occupies a rather special place☞"WITH" is NOT used like other prepositions
the clearest example of this special usage is in the non-underlined part of og12 problem 29:
with individual bulls and cows receiving awards, fetching unprecedented prices, and exciting enormous interest
a similar usage can be found in og12 #23, with a past participle rather than an ING formwith its weight concentrated...
this usage directly violates the principles for the use of other prepositions -- specifically, "WITH + noun + VERBing" is allowed even though the VERBing, rather than the noun, is the intended object of "with". (i.e., in the sentence above, prize-stock breeding was not "with bulls and cows" -- it was specifically with prizes awarded to these animals.)
WITH的用法
1. "sense of possession".
With five all-state players in its backfield, ballardhigh looks
to shut down opposing offenses completely.
This sentence makes sense because ballard high actually has five all-state players in its backfield, thus justifying the use of "with".
2. ''contemporaneous''
With may be used with a present participle (-ING form) to represent circumstances that are contemporaneous with the action described in the main clause.
eg:
In less than a decade, India has become the world’s leading exporter of cotton, selling nearly 20,000 tons a year to Asian markets, with almost half going to South-East Asian countries.
It's a portion/component/aspect of the larger situation described right before it.
Just "contemporaneous" isn't accurate enough, though.
If two things happened at the same time with equal significance/size/importance/priority in context, × then this modifier construction would be inappropriate. In such cases, a√ parallel structure would be used instead.
COMMA, V-ING(p.p)
[size=14.007px]this sort of modifier should actually satisfy TWO requirements:
[size=14.007px]A it describe the action (and, at least indirectly, the s[size=14.007px]ubject) o[size=14.007px]f the[size=14.007px] preceding clause[size=14.007px] (注意subject和action不能分离，修饰的是前句动作)
[size=14.007px]+
[size=14.007px]B it should have one of the following RELATIONSHIPS to that clause:
[size=14.007px]* immediate [size=14.007px]consequence
[size=14.007px]* simultaneous, but [size=14.007px]lower[size=14.007px]-priority, action
AVOID REPETITION of little words
they really go out of their way to avoid repeated-word constructions such as X THAT Y THAT Z or X OF Y OF Z.
* "×evidence THAT suggests THAT...", ☞''√evidence TO suggest THAT
"×to plan to practice" ☞''√to plan on practicing''
* if you see something like "extent OF the shift OF light...", you can be 99.9% sure that it's incorrect

时态- PARALLEL中不要求时态语态对应
- In a suitable context, "ALREADY" can work with present (or future) constructions.
eg:
Even though he has only known how to sew for two years, Valentin is already one of the best-known young fashion designers in his home country.
By the time I arrive back home, my wife will already be gone.

B. than born
you can't say "born under it"; this would imply babies that were born when THEY were under the age of thirty. this is clearly not what we mean.
C. than they were
the use of "they" implies that we're talking about the SAME BABIES referenced in the earlier part of the sentence.
when you use a PRONOUN, you are automatically referring to the SAME NOUN, IN THE SAME CONTEXT, as in the first part of the sentence.
D. than there had been
bad parallelism.

the problems actually lie elsewhere.
(c) and (d) are incorrect because of the word "and"; the sentence is not presenting two separate, independent facts, so "and" is inappropriate as a conjunction.
(b) and (c) are incorrect because of the tense used; "has dated" implies that this is not the case anymore. (this particular construction really only makes sense in the present tense -- or as an -ing modifier attached to a present-tense clause, since -ing modifiers adopt the tense of the clause to which they are attached.)
(e) has subject-verb disagreement ("each one of which" must be singular).
(d) uses complete sentence + comma + "and", a conjunction that should be followed by another independent clause. since "dating" isn't a verb, that second half is a fragment.

感谢楼主总结！但是这里并不是but做介词，but做介词是除了的意思。上题的解释是，are not... but are 这个idiom中are是可以省略的，除非but有做介词理解（以至于引起歧义的可能），比如题目里面are not 这句话后面又有修饰语because xxx，but 在这里可以理解成修饰because 里面的，有造成歧义的可能，因此在这里are不能省略。
在这两题中，but都作为转折连词。第二题的C的it指的好像是achievement，而这个achievement指的是culminated 那一整句话，而不是conquest，否则which从句是可以的，因为前面提到了culminated in
early 17th，而achievement又是 in the same century，所以我觉得achievement应该指代一整句话做同位语。而C中it的错误是，这是一个定语从句，kings attempted to repeat the achievement，but kings were not successful （to repeat the achievement），achievement已经在前面了，所以不应该有it，并且successful at the achievement 总觉得这个表述好像不太对……
我理解里面可能but的平行没有那么严格，and的平行更严格一些……
另外我搜到这个帖子其实是不明白as in the case of 这个用法，不知道楼主可以讲讲吗？在那个pharmacy的题目里，Ron说把with 改成 in是可以的，但是他没有详细讲，但是在太阳燃烧氢气的那道题里，里面的as in the case of any stars of similar mass, once the hydrogen in the Sun's core is exhauseted... 这个选项又是错误的，Ron也没有提到这里的as in the case of，虽然那个选项还有其他错误，但是我想知道，as in the case of可以像as be the case with 一样用吗？需要主语对应吗？
