5. Alaska regularly deposits some of its profits from the sale of oil into a special fund, with the intention to sustain the state's economy after the exhaustion of its oil reserves.
(A) fund, with the intention to sustain the state's economy after the exhaustion of its oil reserves
(B) fund, the intention of which is to sustain the state's economy after they have exhausted their oil reserves
(C) fund intended to sustain the state's economy after oil reserves are exhausted
(D) fund intended to sustain the state's economy after exhausting its oil reserves
(E) fund that they intend to sustain the state's economy after oil reserves are exhausted
答案是C.我怎么觉得五项都对呢
解释上说是由于AFTER的用法.但好象都可以呀.
请高手指点.谢谢
一天下来都没人回,自己顶一下
大家都觉得无法解释?
B and E 被排除. 因为they 和their指代不明确.
D 被排除. 因为exhausting its oil reserves 的逻辑主语不应是Alaska
A C 比较. C比较简洁. intention to sustain 是可以,但exhaustion of its oil reserves不太简洁,不如...are exhausted.
然而我认为, 如果加"its" 在after 和oil reserve之间就更明确了.

Alaska = it, so "they" is wrong (B, E out)
In C and D, intended after "fund" is used to modify fund, but this intention occurs when the whole thing (deposits from sales..) so, intention should be used to modify Alaska's 行為 not just the fund.
Can you also post what 白勇 said about the use of "after"? I sometimes got confused with "after". Thanks
after用法(3-5)
after后面可跟(1)句子(2)doing(3)名词
用after doing时要考虑逻辑主语:after doing在句首,其逻辑主语即为句子主语;否则则就近修饰名词。
这就是白勇对此题的解释.不太看得懂,好象不能解释此题呀.除了逻辑主语有点说得过去之外.
回复一楼,为什么alaska不能作逻辑主语?对应的是its,似乎说得过去呀?
回复二楼,In C and D, intended after "fund" is used to modify fund, but this intention occurs when the whole thing (deposits from sales..) so, intention should be used to modify Alaska's 行為 not just the fund.
你的意思是不是CD都不对?那只有A是用intention修饰alaska的行为了?

你的意思是不是CD都不对?那只有A是用intention修饰alaska的行为了? yes, (so it's Alaska's intention)i also think the use of "after oil reseraves are exhausted" is not as good as "after the exhaustion..." One reason is that: everyone can use oil, not just people from Alaska, 所以用被動有点不夠嚴密)

(D) fund intended to sustain the state's economy after exhausting its oil reserves
In D, since the 主语 is Alaska, "after exhausting" = after ALaska exhaust.....
But Alaska is not the only state that will exhaust oil reserve...
(open to discuss )
In D. Alaska is just a state. However the logical subject for "exhausting its oil reserves" should be people who use oils.
For example,
We exhausted our funds before this month.
还要考虑除了alaska外还有别的人用油.这个似乎太钻牛角尖了,难道GMAT要的是这种思维??
sigh~~看来我还有很长的路要走呀......
可能因为C比A简洁吧.所以答案选了C.虽然你说的被动有些不妥也有道理.
