The results of the company’s cost- cutting measures are evident in its profits, which increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it fell over the last two years.
答案C 我觉得which和with都有修饰不清的嫌疑 为什么选which
in /over the last two years不是应该用完成时态吗 也就是after having fallen
我选E了
with作伴随的话修饰的其实是第一句的主语:results
a five precent increase不如increase five percent好
fall 和increase时间显然不一致,因此不能都用完成时
which 是连词 WITH 是介词,我觉得这个题WHICH 用法比较合适,在PROFIT 后面有一个逗号, WHICH 引非限制定语从句 但是AFTER 后面为什么用ING格式我也想请教 用排除法剩下B 和 C。
楼上 B 中it不对 这里应该指的是profits
2楼 这里的with+n既可以表伴随修饰results 也可以作定语修饰profits
为什么选which呢
快考试 心里很焦燥
with放在句尾会产生修饰歧义,可能修饰The results 也可能修饰 its profits 参照og212 题E选项 ETS的解释。
另外我认为with在这里不是引导独立主格,a five percent increase 使动作性名词,不能解释前面发生的事请。
我觉得用which引导,应该是用which就近指代吧,profits increased five percent during 还是合理的呀!
楼上 我知道profits increased five percent during 合理
我就是想只到 为甚麽 with就不能作定语修饰profits 要说with 有修饰歧义 那 which也有吧 which从语法角度讲 它也可以修饰results 或profits
which引导的定语从句功能就是就近指代阿,怎么会修饰results呢!
这里的with短语是做状语,可以修饰主语也可以修饰宾语。
212. The Baldrick Manufacturing Company has for
several years followed a policy aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving the efficiency of its distribution system.
(A) aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving
(B) aimed at the decreasing of operating costs and to improve
(C)
aiming at the decreasing of operating costs and improving
(D) the aim of which is the decreasing of operating
costs and improving
(E) with the aim to decrease operating costs and to
improve
The best choice, A, offers an adjective phrase unequivocally modifying policy and exhibiting grammatical parallelism (decreasing ... and improving). In choice B, the gerund the decreasing is not grammatically parallel with the infinitive to improve. Likewise, in C and D, the decreasing of... costs is not parallel with improving the efficiency. In E, the infinitives to decrease and to improve, while parallel, are less idiomatic than the prepositional phrase of decreasing ... and improving in modifying the noun aim. Also, with the aim... improve can easily be construed as referring to the Baldrick Manufacturing Company and so does not refer unequivocally to policy.
同意楼上说的
用with的修饰范围太广
但用which就限定性比较强
当然并不是所有的which都比with好
还是很困惑which的用法。。不是很多题都是因为,which....这种非限制性的结构有指代不明的嫌疑而排除掉此类选项吗? 句末的with....结构也有类似问题。当两者同时出现时,怎么处理呢???
有没有关于which 定语从句的总结啊?
根據小弟個人的經驗 一般生活用語裡which可以指的是前句中最後的受辭(object) 但在G考裡幾乎都是指前句的最後一個字
以這題的例子來說 which指的就是profits
至於時態的問題小弟認為答案是A耶 我本來是想選B的 但B不合乎past complete的用法:
earlier action (past complete) + later action (simple past)
A的話則是清楚的表明了兩件事都已經發生了
大家認為呢
I also wrongly choose A when i mocked test GWD10. However, in A, the past tense "increased" is not compatible with "are evident".
Also, "it" is unnecessary, since the subject of "after" is the same as that in "which have increased".

The results of the company’s cost- cutting measures are evident in its profits, which increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it fell over the last two years.
A. which increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it fell
B. which had increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it had fallen
C. which have increased five percent during the first three months of this year after falling
are evident --- have increased 应该是这样吧, 但是不懂falling 作什么成分, 怎么解释falling?
confused..
不懂falling 作什么成分, 怎么解释falling?
after doing sth 到底做什么结构?
OG11 上也有类似题 AFTER DOING被放句首的题目 解释里只说了介词能引导分词 所以对的
但我还是不懂 这是做状语还是什么?
我觉得这里可以这样看 也是刚刚看到大家的想法顿悟的
如果将DE中的with结构看做独立主格,则独立主格由于是起状语的作用,修饰主句的谓语动词,因而其逻辑主语应当是主句主语,即这里的result,这样显然同句子的逻辑意思相左,因而排除
如果就向cold2100所见(我也这样认为),with后面跟的只是一个介词结构,就诚然可以同OG212题(原题cold2100那一层已经列出)相比较,有修饰主语的嫌疑,而不是如原文含义修饰profite;同时,我们可以看到,这里的with后面不仅跟的是a five percent increase,更包含了一长串的修饰结构,我想这样是不符合OG的“precise和concise”原则的
至于which,由于本人不是牛牛,至今也只觉得which最常出的考点就是修饰先行词是否符合逻辑意思的问题,因而就不多加评述了
open to discuss
with有逗号隔开的时候,好像句子主语是with的逻辑主语,所以这题只能选witch了~
好像有蛮多题目不能选with的原因就是逻辑主语不对
我本来选的是A,后来想想IT指代错了,对于C的after falling有点迷茫~~~
看到大家讨论falling的作用,我觉得是现在分词表状态吧,同时其他的选项有比较明显的漏洞
排除法,it不能指代profits,排除AB
which比with好,排除DE (请参考cold2100第一页的回复)
所以只有C
这道题看了一圈也没个定论,那我说点自己的想法吧。
这道题用with肯定是不行的,就是前面说的with修饰有很大歧义,更可能修饰主语,这样就没戏了。
那么剩下a,b,c本来想来看看大牛是怎么区分这三选项的,既然大牛没关注这题。只好说说我的浅见~
首先b的过去完成显然是没戏的,再解释也是掩饰。。。。人家前面一般现在,从句意都是绝不容许。
说a,c之前我先声明一点,前面有人说which指代evidence显然是懵了,这个which必须是指代profit,不然后面根本无从提起。这也更进一步说明了with根本没有谈论的必要。
所以当which指代利润时,after falling的逻辑主语就是利润,所以after falling 是没有问题的,而且还相当简洁,满足了gmac“清晰,简洁”的人生追求。
而用完成时还是过去时这一点上其实我还有点懵懂,不敢以其昏昏,使人昭昭。朦胧的感觉就是完成时强调的一种既成事实成为了证据,而不是过去时的状态。
