标题: [求助]请教一道gmat prep的语法

The investigation of many psychologist and anthropologists support the generalization of there being little that is a significant difference in underlying mental processes manifested by people from different culture.

A of there being little that is a significant difference

B of there being little that is significantly different

C of little that is significant different

D that there is little that is significantly different

E that there is little that is significant differences

我选e,答案是d,不知d和e如何区别呢？

如果选e的话，是不是不太简洁阿，

首先，可以直接说，that there is little significant differences in.....没必要修饰那么多

其次，differences 都有s了， 就是可数，即便用E,也应该是 few 吧~~

不知道我的思路对不对，我sc不是很好~~见笑

significant 重要的

significantly显著地

两者意思不同,一般情况下不可以互相变换

一般原文用significant/significantly哪个就要保持哪个, 这是老师说的....

不过另外一般adj优于抽象名词, 这么看的话是应该选D 因为different优于difference

另外little后边是主系表吧, 念起来比较顺. 而且little, is, 和differences复数确实有问题.

可是原句用的是signifcant啊，D换成了signifcantly

1. different from/to  is ok but  different in  is incorrect.

2. difference in   is a phrase

3.  difference  can be either coutable or uncountable.   so "differences" is OK.

Thus, E is correct.

和我碰到的问题一样。

ETS给出的答案是D，我选的也是E，错了，所以才有此问。E 在 GMAT 里肯定不合适。

还有，

同意9楼观点。

还有，若选 E，that there is little that is significant differences中——is和differences是否一致？

无论differences用于连接哪个is（这结构中出现两个is），都有这个问题。
