jandj_shanghai :
Hi,此处willing是形容词阿。
我不是说没有be + willing这种结构。而是说此时willing是形容词,不是动词ing形式。
I agree with jandj_shanghai's opinion here.
请叫admit在GMAT中的用法,感觉挺特别的好像
admit that... 承认
admit sb. to do sth. 允许
Still about admit
The explanation says: In E, ...... admit their lack should be admit to their lack..... Why?
I looked it up in the webster:
transitive senses: to concede as true or valid <admitted making a mistake>
intransitive senses: to make acknowledgment -- used with to
I can't tell much the difference between these two and why the transitive meaning is not correct here in E?
请问在省略结构中while不能跟形容词性的成分吗?
那如何看这个句子呢:He wrote this novel while immersed in the dull life of a small town;
一道四级题。19) ____ mainly for the invention of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell devoted his life to helping the deaf.
A) He is remembered B) While being remembered
C) To be remembered D) Though remembered
答案:d. 看来being确实不该要
我发现标对比时,while willing to do这个情况很常见,下面两个句子:
1。Amundsen, while willing to admit his mistakes, lets his fear of being beaten by Scott get the better of him, which compromises his leadership and his confidence.此句出自评论 on The Last Place on Earth , a seven-part miniseries first shown on Masterpiece Theatre in 1985. 这个句子就有点虽然承认……,可是……, 那个味道。
2。They can offer no convincing argument because women themselves, while willing to identify themselves as pro-choice, believe that most abortions should not be legal.

托福语法笔记:
省略方式:可以同时省略 主+系
Although(主+系),主谓宾。
连词 + (主+系) + adj/分词,SVO.
结论:although/though/even though/if/when/while/as + adj/分词,SVO. 省略主语和系动词。
ETS做的改编:第一步:省略主语。第二步:插入
但是书面语法要求可能更为严谨,所以象willing这样做形容词就不合适直接跟在while后,我们通常用while + doing结构,所以这里的being作为动词补出或许还是需要的,至少ETS可能是这样要求的。

Stoneren,如果根据这一说法,是不是要在下面这个句子中加上being才更书面化?
He wrote the novel while immersed in the dull life of a small town.
但加上being后感觉是在强调immersed这个状态正在进行之意——语感似乎不太对。因为我觉得immersed已经清楚的表达了该行为是一个状态,既然是状态就不必再强调其正在进行。
存在上述这个问题吗?
我还是不明白这题的语法错在何处.
mianmian和泰格尔的分析很对.我也赞成mianmian 说的"我觉得倒是在于原文weak和选项e中lack的区别" 但我觉着这不是语法的问题.
To Stoneren: 关于being, 我可以很肯定的说这里加being 是错的.根据我昨天研究语法书的结果, 语法书有和泰格尔惊人相似的论调.
To Stoneren: 我打字不快, 就说两点吧: be是表状态的词,所以being+adj做状语通常是表原因的, 而不是表正在进行的动作(这点你可查语法书).我认为Being willing to的意思是:"由于愿意...," 而不是我们想象中的"正愿意..."的意思.加while强调它? 不通.
另一点省略原则,mianmian 讲的很清楚了.我没见过光省略主语,将is/are/etc变成 being的.
不过,对ETS,有些语法要另当别论了.
To mianmian: 你说:"ETS做的改编:第一步:省略主语。第二步:插入" 请问插入是指什么?谢谢!
这种省略从句主语的方式理论上要满足以下两个条件:
一:从句主语与主句主语必需一致。(在此满足)
二:从句的谓语必需是be(没要求主句谓语也必需是be!),且从句主语和谓语要么同省,要么同留。
所以这里的Many people have a disinclination to recognize the weakness of their analytical skills while (many people are) willing to admit their lack of computer skills or other technical skills.这里从句主语和谓语同省了,所以我觉得
jandj_shanghai 的观点不正确:
“hi,那么这里你是否同意这里的willing是形容词,而非动词ing形式呢?(同意,但那又有什么关系呢?!)will作动词的话,表示意愿,应该是没有ing时态的,比如desire, incline。
如果同意的话,应该就可以解释为和grammatically incomplete了。因为作形容词使用的时候,即使省略主语,也必须是while being + 形容词。”(这里是主谓皆省,不可以只省略主语!所以是while willing)
一家之见
我个人当时这个题目也是选的E,当时也问过
我觉得如果,允许, while willing存在,不管是否willing是什么词
好象while前加个逗号好点
否则的话,while就是连词,连接状语从局
从前面有mianmian标的例子也可以看出这个特点
可是是状语从句又怎样呢?
这里省略的主语谓语也挺合适啊。
Still about admit
The explanation says: In E, ...... admit their lack should be admit to their lack..... Why?
I looked it up in the webster:
transitive senses: to concede as true or valid <admitted making a mistake>
intransitive senses: to make acknowledgment -- used with to
I can't tell much the difference between these two and why the transitive meaning is not correct here in E?
今天再回头研读了这道题,这里ETS的解释写的很精简,所以造成了大家理解上的误差,while willing to是可以的,while+adj也是可以的,但是这种情况存只在于while引导的从句当中,多是时间状语从句。
而此题中E的while并不是引导了一个从句,while在该句中只起一个转折连词的作用,先看这句话所表达的意思:
多数人不愿意承认他们的分析问题能力差,而他们乐于承认缺乏计算机或其它的科技技能。
while不是一个独立的句子,因为前面动词的主语是many people,所以需要一个动词,而此处的动词不能是have,需要的是are完整的结构是many people have...while are willing to...,have和are 并列,这才是完整的结构,不同于while引导的从句,后面可以省略主语和谓语be。
另外OG中还提到admit应该替换成admit to,实在是找不到这两者有何区别?还请大家指点!
同意我楼上的看法。
will的用法,查查字典吧。
will verb
1[transitive] to try to make something happen by thinking about it very hard
will somebody to do something
She was willing herself not to cry.
2[transitive + to] to officially give something that you own to someone else after you die
3[intransitive and transitive] old use to want something to happen
The King wills it.
由上,此处不可能是动词。
另:admit仅供参考
LDOCE
Admit verb
1▶ACCEPT TRUTH◀
[intransitive and transitive]to agree unwillingly that something is true or that someone else is right
2▶ACCEPT BLAME◀
[intransitive and transitive]to say that you have done something wrong, especially something criminal
ᅳsynonym confess
ᅳopposite deny
谢谢JerryGuan!
Admit verb

2▶ACCEPT BLAME◀
[intransitive and transitive]to say that you have done something wrong, especially something criminal
ᅳsynonym confess
ᅳopposite deny
这道题admit their lack也可以看成不愿意接受的事实啊!我翻遍了词典,实在找不出有什么区别。倒是看到了有admit their +N的例句!
my understanding is
1.(vt) to concede as true or valid <admitted making a mistake>
means "right / wrong" , e.g. admit a truth/a mistake...
2.to make acknowledgment -- used with to
admit to "a fact", e.g. admit to a lack of sth..
admit 做及物动词时,意思是认为什么是对的。
做部及物动词时,意思是承认如,承认缺乏技巧等。
while不是一个独立的句子,因为前面动词的主语是many people,所以需要一个动词,而此处的动词不能是have,需要的是are完整的结构是many people have...while are willing to...,have和are 并列,这才是完整的结构,不同于while引导的从句,后面可以省略主语和谓语be。
看了上面大家的讨论,作个小小的总结:
1,while引导时间状语从句的时候,就可以把动词省略掉,(如果主语相同的话)
eg:He is eating while watching TV.
2, 当while做“然而”解释时,由于对比感觉增强,所以,就不能省略while从句里面的动词(如果主语相同的话)
eg:He beated others while is not willing to appologize.
这是is就是不可以少的。
不知道我的理解对不对,请nn指教!谢谢

虽然我没有花更多时间去考证你的结论;但至少我发现,你的例句有些问题:
He beated others while is not willing to appologize.
这里的willing是adj.,不是V+ing ,这个词很容易混,你可以查清楚。
再给你一个例句:
I bought a magazine while I was waiting for the train.
……
我想最主要的是要看两个动作的关系来决定前后用的形式。
最后,while doing,是 while sb. do...的缩写形式。
到现在为止我看到的对admit最好的解释:(来自圆月弯刀之必杀G)
admit their lack should be admit to their lack
请看: transitive senses
1 a : to allow scope for : PERMIT <admits no possibility of misunderstanding> b : to concede as true or valid <admitted making a mistake>
2 : to allow entry (as to a place, fellowship, or privilege) <an open window had admitted rain> <admitted to the club>
intransitive senses1 : to give entrance or access
2 a : ALLOW, PERMIT <admits of two interpretations> b : to make acknowledgment -- used with to
这里现在可以看出用ADMIT TO了.

偶把这个帖子从头至尾的仔细看了一遍,发现彻底给搞糊涂了,大家的说法前后有许多矛盾之处,昏了。。。。。。。
通看了一遍,同意leeon的意见和hougang的总结。
个人认为E错的地方:
1)admit to sth 或admit that
2)have +动词性名词 应该改为 改为do或者be adv done
3)while being willing
个人意见:
大家请留意ets的解释是“have a disinclination ......while willing is grammatically incomplete”,并不是单独说while willing is grammatically incomplete。这里单单看while willing是没有问题的,问题是跟have a disinclination一起就出现问题:while willing 和while being willing 是否应该省略be或being,原因就是大家讨论的while表转折应与have形成平行比较,不能省略谓语动词;至于应该是be还是being,个人比较倾向于are与have对应,不知是否正确。
当然假如E改成many people are disinclined to recognize the weakness of their analytical skills while are willing to admit to their lack of computer skills or other technical skills.我认为就应该没有问题。(请留意画线部分修改)这里有三个改动,第一、二个改动是为了解决have a disinclination....while willing产生的语法缺失;第三个改动参考了这个连接http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?boardid=23&replyid=54374&id=54374&page=1&skin=0&Star=1。
admit their lack should be admit to their lack

2 : to allow entry (as to a place, fellowship, or privilege) <an open window had admitted rain> <admitted to the club>
intransitive senses1 : to give entrance or access
2 a : ALLOW, PERMIT <admits of two interpretations> b : to make acknowledgment -- used with to
这里现在可以看出用ADMIT TO了.
另外也参考了金山词霸里面的解释,只有“容纳”的意思只是及物动词,其他意思都可以是及物和不及物。
这里是否可以认为除了几个比较固定的搭配如admit mistake/defeat等外,ets可能认为其他情况加上to比较清晰吧。
请大家指正。
for E now i finally got it...
however, as to "admit", here's the notes i have from a famous GMAT teacher :
1. He admits Being ignorant of it.
2. He admits to Being ignorant of it.
3. He admits to be ignorant of it. (X)
4. She admitted to the crime/shoplifting
老师说前两个都对, 就是3不对。。。
大家帮帮忙套论吧!
admit的用法:
1, admit (that)
2, admit to sb.(or sth.)
3, admit to doing sth.
你的句子:
1. He admits (that he) Being ignorant of it. 符合第1种
2. He admits to Being ignorant of it. 符合第3种
3. He admits to be ignorant of it. (X)
to后要跟doing形式
4. She admitted to the crime/shoplifting 符合第2种
不知道对不对哈。
yeah I think it's very clear now. Admit to + noun for sure (from OG)
Thanks jennysxjing
看了这么多例句,我觉得只能两个原因E的while willing to错,
1、while前面缺少一个逗号
2、GMAT的解释错了
While not ideal, they were superior to those in other parts of the world.
这个例句是GMAT的阅读的一句话。和各位楼主的解释都矛盾,while表示了转折,而且省略了ther were.

还是这个比较全面
对的,OG11里面E的解释里没有出现说要用admit to这个用法了。
研究了一下longman对admit的解释,觉得ETS去掉这个解释是有理由的。
请问在省略结构中while不能跟形容词性的成分吗?
那如何看这个句子呢:He wrote this novel while immersed in the dull life of a small town;
同问同问??
表達Contrast時,可用
but、yet
或
although、while,
But、yet
左右連結的是相當、平等的概念,
although、while左右連接的是一個主要概念和一個次要概念。
由句意來判斷語意邏輯上該用哪一個來表達,同一個句子中不可同時用but/yet 和 although。
例如,….primarily….., although/ while they supplement….
(主要) (附屬)… 故用although/ while 較合語意邏輯
(1) Although / while 引導的附屬子句,必須有主詞和完整的動詞,不可省略任一。
(while當contrast時, 是做為附屬連接詞, 必須引導完整的主詞和動詞)
(2) Although、while 引導的子句,和主要子句在語氣(主、被動)以及句子結構上必須平行對稱。
注意:所以E選項說用 while willing 是不完整的結構, 因為缺了主詞和動詞
而D選項的willing, 是 Many people, who are willing to..., (或著,Many people, who will to..., )
的"非限定形容詞子句"省略之後變成分詞構句 (Many people, willing to..., ) 用來補充形容people, 這裡跟 while的用法沒有關係.
will 查字典,只有 助動詞、動詞的用法,沒有形容詞的用法。
至於while當 時間(當...的時候)的表示時,主、動詞是否可以省略的原則如下:
當 由「從屬連接詞」引導的「副詞子句」,其主詞和動詞與主要子句裡的主詞和動詞相同時,省略主、動詞之後就變成「省略副詞子句」。但是如果主、動詞是不同的,則省略之後會造成句意不清,要避免。
例一,Men and women still experience some of the effects of a divorce
that occurred when they were children. (O)
Men and women still experience some of the effects of a divorce
that occurred when child. (X) à
省略主、動詞之後,變成when引導的子句其主詞是 a divorce.
變成 a divorce that occurred when a divorce was a child.
例二,The bank holds $3 billion in
loans that are seriously delinquent or in such trouble that it(the bank)
does not expect payments to be made when they are due. (O)
如果when引導的副詞子句中,省略了they are,變成
when due,就會變成 when (the bank is) due,會導致句意邏輯的錯誤。
看完就是一个字,晕啊。。
不过我还是想问问,C 哪错了?
而且如果按前面说的wil没有-ing分词形式的话,那在正确选项D中的willing也是形容词了?做什么成分?形容词做同位语修饰people?有这么用的吗?
while conj,
1 当 ...时 时间状语从句 主语相同,谓语为be可同时省略
主语相同,谓语为一般动词,则动词变为分词
形式: 主句,while+ -ing/a.
2 而,然而 表对比转折 主语谓语动词不管怎样都不能省,应该完整写出 while they are willing........
3 虽然 表让步 从大全的例子和前人举的好多例子看,让步是可以省略主语和谓语动词的,这是与2表对比转 折最大的区别 请别迷惑2和3
关于第三点:但是OG11-9里说让步也不能省…
9. Sunspots, vortices of gas associated with strong electromagnetic activity, are visible as dark spots on the surface of the Sun but have never been sighted on the Sun’s poles or equator.
(A) are visible as dark spots on the surface of the Sun but have never been sighted on
(B) are visible as dark spots that never have been sighted on the surface of the Sun
(C) appear on the surface of the Sun as dark spots although never sighted at
(D) appear as dark spots on the surface of the Sun, although never having been sighted at
(E) appear as dark spots on the Sun’s surface, which have never been sighted on
这道题里面OG11-9同时说了CD里面的although都是应该引导一个主谓完整的从句的,也即不能省略主谓。但是可以看出来C才是真正的状从省略,而D并没有省略谓语。所以C,D对于although从句的错误并不相同。

好吧,到此位置,暂下定论:
逗号决定了要不要补出
如果有逗号那么就可以省略
如果没有逗号那就需要补出
其实,这个题很容易排除 A B C
在D和E中,用一种经验的总结规律就可以排除E。
That is, ....,are [disinclined] to recognize ... 和 Many people have a [disinclination] to recognize ...一比较就会看出,一个用的是【动词】而另一用的是【名词】。Gmat在有些题就是在遵循使用动词比使用名词更简洁的原则。所以,选用动词优于选用名词。因此答案自然选E了.

我想关键的还是be+adj.和be+prep.结构就不能省吧。
