标题: OG 131
131. The Commerce Department announced that the economy grew during the second quarter at a 7.5 percent annual rate, while inflation eased when it might have been expected for it to rise.it might have been expected for it to rise
it might have been expected to rise
it might have been expected that it should rise
its rise might have been expected
there might have been an expectation it would rise
In English, x [is] expected to y is idiomatic usage: expected for it to in choice A and expected that it should in choice C are thus unidiomatic. Choice D awkwardly substitutes its rise for the pronoun it as the subject of might have been expected; since it refers to inflation, the subject of the verb eased, it is preferable as the subject of might have been expected, the verb form corresponding to eased. Choice E is needlessly wordy, roundabout, and vague. Choice B is best.

D的错误，肯定是expect X to do sth., its 的指代有没有问题呢？OG中说：

Choice D awkwardly substitutes its rise for the pronoun it as the subject of might have been expected; since it refers to inflation, the subject of the verb eased, it is preferable as the subject of might have been expected, the verb form corresponding to eased

可是我在做885中，就碰到前面一个句子用的是it ，而后面的是用its，就是正确答案。

不明白啊？能讲讲吗？谢谢。

这个句子是一个对比，对比实际上就包含了很严格的平行要求。我觉得OG事实上也是在
解释这一点，它在说D不平行。

its rise is not parelleled with the inflation, it is preferable to its rise. in addition, if we place back its rise and wanna find the counterparts of its rise in the first part of the sentence, then we have to say "inflation rise eased" rather than "inflation eased". that's another faulty place for D.

Choice D awkwardly substitutes its rise for the pronoun it as the subject of might have been expected; since it refers to inflation, the subject of the verb eased, it is preferable as the subject of might have been expected, the verb form corresponding to eased.

哪位高人可以讲解一下为什么是这样的吗?

inflation eased-----inflation(it) might have been expected to rise

inflation eased-----inflation's rise might have been expected

第一个前后主语一致, 两个动词对称, 非常流畅. 把它翻成中文, 你会发现第二个表达很晦涩.

偶最怕平行结构和壮语修饰语这些现在，发现总结OG真的很重要。

原来看别人的总结没有体会，只有自己做了题目，看了解释以后再积累的最终才会记住啊。

并列结构需要平行，是健状语when后面也要和主句平行吗？？？？

以前怎么从来没有注意过？？？

作者: 薰衣紫草 时间: 2005-6-8 06:46

在没有其他差别也不破坏句子的逻辑意思的情况下, 平行比不平行要优选.

而且主动〉被动

非常感谢各位nn的总结！

又没有ＮＮ进一步解释这个规律呀？

GMAT存在这种倾向，在都没有其他问题的情况下，ETS会遵照这样的规律优选答案。

老实说，这个也太玄了吧

作者: yaoshuming 时间: 2007-1-17 17:25
我也想问一下这个its的指代问题，这里的its有可指代的内容吗？我忘记是什么题了，似乎说如果前面没有inflation's的话its这里是没有指代内容的？不知道我表述清楚不……

这个对称是不是可以这样理解呢？

句子可以写为：The economy might have been expected to rise while inflation eased，然后用D项替换一下，句子就成了

Its rise might have been expected to rise while inflation eased.

那根据前辈的指点，也就是说，its如果和inflation对应，那么inflation得形式应该是inflation`s，然后rise 和ease对应。

请问我这样的理解对吗？请NN指点

BY的书上说 D用its rise代替it，when从句变成了强调rise,改变了原句的重心。。。

作者: magic3140 时间: 2009-2-24 19:38

可以解释的具体下么？

when为啥要对称？

不但要注意形式上一致（可能时态有些变化），意思上更要一致。 expected与eased 虽然形式上一致（很具有迷惑性），但是意思却不平行。Rise 与 eased就是平行。

OG11说D Its rise is not parallel to inflation,就表明虽然词性平行，但是还要看意思是否对应。

是否还可以说，象这种while引起的预期于事实相反的比较，是状语比较，而主语是一样的，所以主句与从句的主语应该一致，都为inflation
