但是好像查了一下语法书,现在分词一般表示主动和未完成意义,og里一般用能问一下句子重心怎样改变的吗？
还有og的解释：Choice C may be faulted for distortion of meaning and diminished clarity because it suggests that the point of Wootton's example was the elephant's very existence; comparative earnings are presented (after and) as incidental detail 什么意思吖？
请指教，谢谢
我把句子简化一下你或许就懂OG的意思:
2The British sociologist and activist Barbara Wootton once noted as a humorous example of income maldistribution that the elephant that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo was earning annually exactly what she then earned as director of adult education for London.
(A)that the elephant (that gave rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo) was earning
(C)that there was an elephant (giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo), and it earned
OG所要讲的是英国社会学家所举的例子不是大象的存在(there is the elephant), 而应该是拿大象赚的跟她所赚的一样
用排除错误的方法已经明白了bcde的错误,但是总觉得a里面
the elephant.. was earning..what she then earned ...
这里一个用过去进行,一个过去时,感觉也不太符合平行的规则啊??
还有请问 (B) that the elephant, giving rides to children ...
和(A)里的that从句比, giving不好在哪里???
多谢 但是好像查了一下语法书,现在分词一般表示主动和未完成意义,og里一般用
这个表示和主句动作同时发生. 好像没有看到过表示重复动作的啊~~ 也可能是我查的
书不全
GMAT中，
现在分词强调重复性动作，不表示正在进行
过去分词强调一次性动作。
GMAT中有许多用法和我们一起学的语法不一样的，要小心哦！
楼上说的没错，最好还是从OG中找类似的例子。比如OG102的解释说:
In B, the participle staging inappropriately expresses ongoing rather than completed action.
B. that the elephant, giving rides to children at the Whipsnade Zoo, had been earning
请问B中的过去完成进行时为何不对?
horsefish問的真好，個人理解是，這位sociologist要舉的例子是有一個動物園的大象賺的錢比他還多，這應該是個事實，而且是持續發生的事實，以past perfect tense就會使原題句意大打折扣，難到說"這隻大象以前賺的多，現在就不賺了?"，我相信這也是不選B的重要原因
進一步來說，以句意來推，以過去進行式表達也好，簡單過去式也罷，這兩個方式去詮釋都會比過去完成式好，個人看法，請指教

我理解过去完成进行时在这句里表示一直到那个sociologist写这个例子时大象挣钱多还发生着. 不过刚刚又看一遍原句, 发现还有个annually, 那么从句里真的只能用过去进行时或过去时了.
如果B把时态改为过去进行时,B就对吗?
另外,为什么B的现在分词就意味这大家已经知道了这个大象?
还求各位指教.
UP
In B, the structure of noted... that the elephant, giving rides ..., had been earning falsely implies that the reader already knows about the elephant--that is, that the existence of this particular elephant is not new information.
这到底是什么意思??
我的理解是
题目强调那头可以give rides to children的大象才能赚到和那个sociologist一样多的东西。
但是如果用had been的话，意思是说在大象能够give rides to children以前，它就能够赚到和sociologist一样多的东西。这样的话就会产生逻辑错误。所以b答案是错误的。
不知道理解对不对，请nn指教。
能问一下句子重心怎样改变的吗？
还有og的解释：Choice C may be faulted for distortion of meaning and diminished clarity because it suggests that the point of Wootton's example was the elephant's very existence; comparative earnings are presented (after and) as incidental detail 什么意思吖？
请指教，谢谢
C说W的例子的重点是大象的存在，比较收入只是附带的细节。
