标题: T-4-Q31

As sources of electrical power, windmills now account for only about 2,500 megawatts nationwide, but production is almost expected to double by the end of the year, which would provide enough electricity for 1.3 million households.

almost expected to double by the end of the year, which would provide
almost expected that it will double by the end of the year, thus providing
expected that it will almost double by the end of the year to provide
expected almost to double by the end of the year and thus to provide
expected almost to double by the end of the year, which would thus be providing

答案选D，个人觉得B也没什么错，providing做结果状语意思也通呀？

望NN指点

B 中 providing 的结果状语是主句windmills now account for only about 2,500 megawatts nationwide 的，还是 but 后面句子的 production is almost expected that it will double by the end of the year 的？容易有歧义。。

顶一下. 请NN看过来...

B的问题：

almost位置不对，almost应该修饰double而不是expect

it will不对，it就是production这里再用个代词是累赘

主要还是看平行

GMAC就好这口子

to double / to provide

As sources of electrical power, windmills now account for only about 2,500 megawatts nationwide, but production is almost expected to double by the end of the year, which would provide enough electricity for 1.3 million households.

A) almost expected to double by the end of the year, which would provide

B) almost expected that it will double by the end of the year, thus providing

C) expected that it will almost double by the end of the year to provide

D）expected almost to double by the end of the year and thus to provide

E) expected almost to double by the end of the year, which would thus be providing

almost逻辑上应该是指的double，而不是expect，所以A B 错；GMAT里，which 不能修饰前面整句话，A E错了；expected that it will中it 和前面的production是重复的，B c 错。

不过我觉得那个平行来判断thus to provide 感觉不能作为第一判据吧，一般都是连词连接两三个并列成分，如and,or,conversely,neither nor,not but,等连接主宾表状等成分，才要求并列，那个 thus是个副词，连接的不是相同成分吧

我这道题也做错了，不过review的时候是这样想的：

B、C中that后头的it指代模糊，容易产生歧义，不好，去BC
D、E相似。两个比较中D比E例的“which would thus be providing”好，去E

我错选了A，但是总结前头大家的分析，逗号后的which逻辑上是表示前头说production会double这一整句话，但是语法上which不能指代一整句话，故D比A好。

求NN们指点！

正确答案expected almost to double by the end of the year and thus to provide

almost是不是应该放在to后面啊囧

作者: bitieming 时间: 2011-8-30 16:04
expect正确的用法是expect that和expect to do
it is expected that是错误的用法
另外almost修饰对象错误

作者: xingmic15 时间: 2012-2-5 11:38
我做这题的时候，第一反应是D，但是看到了thus to provide 觉得好奇怪啊，不是thus都应该跟现在分词的吗？？？？google了也没有这类的解答......疑惑.......

作者: lemonsong 时间: 2013-1-14 21:48
B整句话理解就是，production可能会或者不会double，结果providing……但实际是如果production不double，就不会providing。所以almost修饰double的多少更合理。

作者: liumuziwn 时间: 2014-4-27 15:44
Also, the usage expected that it will almost double seems to be awkward. Although the usage of expected that is tempting BUT the usage of IT creates a confusion

Production is expected that IT double by....
OR
Production is expected to double by...

Which one seems better?

作者: liumuziwn 时间: 2014-4-27 15:47
我们可以说 production is expected to provide
但是 production本身是不能 provide的

作者: cicimarion 时间: 2016-5-16 15:47
我觉得如果对比C和D就能看出C是比较啰嗦的，D是简化之后的

expect正确的用法是expect that和expect to doit is expected that是错误的用法另外almost修饰对象错误 ...

这道题主要研究了下expect的用法，根据OG16 P772对C选项的解释 "production is expected that it will" 这个用法是错误的，有两种正确的表述方式，一种是C 选项解释中提到的 “it is expected that the production will”(这个是正确的用法)；另一种就是正确答案D里的用法“the production is expected to double”。
所以16#小伙伴说的“it is expected that 是错误用法”是值得商榷的。
另，GMATclub的解释也印证了这一点，具体网址：http://gmatclub.com/forum/as-sources-of-electrical-power-windmills-now-account-for-on-159790.html
“B) Incorrect Placement of ALMOST. Unidiomatic Usage Production is expected that it would double CORRECT USAGE IS Production is expected to double OR It is expected that Production will double”
