标题: [请教] Kaplan sucks, 高手请进
Is it Kaplan or me?
I did terrible with Kaplan 2004 CAT, 14 out 41 wrong in verbal. Here's another one still confused me.
It has been said that all one can do for a sprained ankle is leave it alone while it heals itself, ice it, and to lie with it in a slightly elevated position.
1) all one can do for a sprained ankle is leave it alone while it heals itself, ice it, and to
2) all one can do for a sprained ankle is to leave it alone to heal itself, to ice it, and
3) all one can do for a sprained ankle is leave it alone while it heals itself, and then ice it and
4) the only thing that can be done for a sprained ankle is leave it alone while it heals itself, ice it, and
5) the only thing that can be done for a sprained ankle is to leave it alone while it heals itself, to ice it, and
The answer is 4). Kaplan's explanation is,
This sentence contains a nonparallel construction. There are three things listed that can be done for a sprained ankle, "leave it alone," "ice it," and "to lie."
My question is, doesn't choice 4) "the only thing" means only one thing ? Otherwise it should be "the only things".
My feeling with Kaplan is, it confuse me more than help me. Am I the only one ?

是4吗，不会吧？885里面的答案是3哎。
885 sec18-11
It is an oversimplified view of cattle raising to say that all one has to do with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, corral them, and to drive them to market when the time is ripe.
(A) all one has to do with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, corral them, and to
(B) all one has to do with cattle is to leave them alone to feed themselves, to corral them, and
(C) all one has to do with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves and then corral them and
(D) the only thing that has to be done with cattle is leave them alone while they feed themselves, corral them, and
(E) the only thing that has to be done with cattle is to leave them alone while they feed themselves, to corral them, and
完全一样的结构，这里的答案却是C，我实在看不懂。
我选的是D，如kaplan所说的三个动词的平行结构。

是啊，我也急得很清楚这个结构
是应该选c的啊。记得当时大家讨论时说d可能是被动吧。。既然主动里面有parallel的，就应该尽量主动嘛。大家再看看？可不希望搞错了。

Could anybody check Kaplan 2003 or 2002 to see if they have the same question/anwser ?

从意思判断，c比d好.
