大全933. While the owner of a condominium apartment has free and clear title to the dwelling, owners of cooperative apartments have shares in a corporation that owns a building and leases apartments to them.
(A) While the owner of a condominium apartment has free and clear title to the dwelling,
(B) The owner of a condominium apartment has free and clear title to the dwelling, but
(C) Whereas owners of condominium apartments have free and clear title to their dwellings,
(D) An owner of a condominium apartment has free and clear title to the dwelling, whereas(C)
(E) Condominium apartment owners have a title to their dwelling that is free and clear, while
答案:C
个人感觉A更好。理由:尽管C从实行对成的角度来说比A好,但GMAT尽管强调对成,但不能为了对称而对称,这这方面OG或大全中,有几个例子就是尽管形式对称很好,但就是不选它。回到此题,C很明显的一个缺陷就是owners使用了复数,造成后面未画线部分的them指代不清,而且这个them与C选项中的their指代不统一。而A采用了单数后,就避免了这个问题。不清楚正确答案选C是否还有其它的原因?
请NN指点!
A - the owner 特指某个owner, C的owners和owners平行. 见OG109对B&E中, job与jobs的解释.
OG129正确答案: their wines are priced to sell, and they do = >their指vintners, they指wines. OG60正确答案: owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still..., as it was. its=house's, it=owning and living...
这里的finding是, 在从句里代词可指不同东东.
感谢jandjshi的答复。你说的很有道理,在OG中确实有一些代词指代不统一的情况,如你所举的例子。但在OG中也确实有打破形式对对称的特例。所以这样就感觉ETS为了得到正确答案,有时这样说,有时那样说,到底多个矛盾出现的时候,哪个规则的优先级更高呢?就拿这题来说,我还是认为舍弃形式的对称(C选项),而取指代清楚,逻辑意思明确的选项A。毕竟表达清楚最重要,因为这是本质。而形式对称再怎么好,不过还是形式的,外在的东西。
至于你提到的A选项中的the会造成特指,有一定道理。但因为这个理由排除A,个人还是觉得不是很有说服力。
欢迎讨论。
(A) While the (an) owner of a condominium apartment has free and clear title to the dwelling,
the above is also a mistake.
请问mbz问什么呢?
