标题: GWD 31-15
15: Reptiles, by drawing their body heat directly from the Sun rather than burning calories to generate it, can survive on ten percent of the nourishment that a mammal of similar size would normally require
A: rather than burning calories to generate it
B: rather than the generation of body heat by burning calories
C: and not from generating it by burning calories
D: instead of by burning calories for generating it
E: instead of body heat generated by burning calories
Answer A?

支持E

who can give me some advice ?
A: rather than burning calories to generate it
B: rather than the generation of body heat by burning calories
C: and not from generating it by burning calories
D: instead of by burning calories for generating it
E: instead of body heat generated by burning calories
so e

A中,rather than前后要平行,就需要by
作者: caiyeh 时间: 2005-10-4 05:00
I think the answer is E
作者: earlybirdcyu 时间: 2005-10-11 16:26
agree on E,它最符合平行法则。
作者: sureno1 时间: 2005-10-12 22:08
恩支持选E
A少了BY啊
作者: 饼干人 时间: 2005-10-19 15:22
我选A,虽然A没有by,但只有 burning calories to generate it 和题目的drawing their body heat directly 对称啊。所以感觉是不是把by给省略了?
作者: shadowfax 时间: 2005-10-19 17:20
是A
请给俺寄份GWD 31. 谢了! (rwang30[在] yahoo.com)

i vote for B.
作者: 芷菁 时间: 2005-11-20 13:19
同意选A。我认为A不是省略BY的问题,而是直接和DRAWING平行就行了,前面那个BY是这二个词共用的先行词。E不对,在OG里大部份的答案都不用被动式,且E产生了一个新的主语BODY HEAT,也和前面不对称。

A的it虽然指代不清,但比E要好的多,正如14楼MM所说的,E是在拿body heat和一个方法(by doing,,,)在比较。支持A。
作者: flyingceleste 时间: 2006-7-31 20:29
这题为啥没人选D呀?我觉得D满对称的啊 by doing instead of by doing,看了半天谁来个定论啊,到底选什么?A/E/D的都有了,不过个人觉得E读起来好怪by drawing their body heat directly from the Sun instead of body heat generated by burning calories = their body heat directly by drawing from the Sun instead of body heat generated by burning calories ,其中出现了两次body heat ,不符合GMAT语法简洁的精髓啊,其次,第一个body heat 有所有格their,说明了属性,第2个确没,也没定冠词,总觉得怪,请求斑竹赐教

再顶
作者: gonghao 时间: 2006-8-1 17:10
D里面的for不好
instead of不好
作者: yelplin 时间: 2006-8-8 22:57
我认为答案是B,A中的it指代有问题。D同样也是it指代问题,而且instead of少用。
作者: flyinglamb 时间: 2006-10-19 05:29
i chose B
作者: boochxu 时间: 2006-10-30 11:57
答案应该为E吧,A、D中it指代有问题;B中rather than 前后比较不对等啊。只有E没有错误啊!
作者: leoozop 时间: 2007-1-20 17:22
e,A意思不对,rather than 结构不平行
作者: livetofly 时间: 2007-1-20 17:31
支持A,A里面的it不可能在逻辑上指代Sun,所以只会指代body heat.
作者: gonghao 时间: 2007-3-17 19:09
A looks better than E which put two different things into comparison

逻辑平行,比语法结构平行更重要。如果结构平行,但是逻辑不通,也不可以。
这道题的逻辑结构是 体温的获得是 从太阳那里获得,而不是从燃烧卡路里获得。
虽然结构上没有严格对称,也只有C是逻辑上平行的。通过 from....and not from .....避免了歧义,清楚了说出了本题的逻辑意思。。
其他选项 平行部分都在逻辑上说不通,都产生了歧义。 仿佛在说,获得体温可以通过太阳, 燃烧卡路里也可以通过太阳, 等等。
大家可以体会一下。

Rather than shows preference not alternative. so i think rather than will not be used here. instead of hints at parallelism before and after it. E options is parallel to the earlier portion. "drawing their body heat = body heat generated" & "directly from the Sun = by burning calories"
I hope this clarifies.
