标题: 885最新真题中的两道题，请教NN和各位朋友
9. In a leveraged buyout, investors borrow huge sums of money to buy companies, hoping to pay off the debt by using the company’s earnings and to profit richly by the later resale of the companies or their divisions.
(A) by using the company’s earnings and to profit
(B) by using the companies’ earnings and by profiting
(C) using the companies’ earnings and profiting
(D) with the company’s earnings, profiting
(E) with the companies’ earnings and to profit
答案是E,我选了a,这里为是么不可以用by using而用的

15. Under the 1986 tax law, interest payments on a refinanced home loan are deductible only if the amount of the loan does not exceed the purchase price of the home, the cost of improvements, and any additional amount borrowed against the home to pay for medical or educational expenses.
(A) any additional amount borrowed against the home to pay for medical or educational expenses
(B) borrowing any additional amount against the home for payment of medical or educational expenses
(C) also borrowing any additional amount against the home to pay for medical or educational expenses
(D) any additional payment of medical or educational expenses that were borrowed against the home
(E) any additional payment borrowed against the home for medical or educational expenses
答案是A,我选了D,请问D错在哪些地方？

另外我两周后就要考了，这最后的两周的重点该放在哪里，怎么在有限的时间保持和提高现有的水平呢？今天做了kaplan很不理想，比一年前还差不少，沮丧中。。。

by using 不如with the earnings. using在这里有正在进行的意思，而句子无此意。

2。 D的句子没有A好。同时，payment要用amount修饰，因为这里是不可数。
另外，pay for 比单纯的for表达得更清楚。

既然要考了，没必要在kaplan上浪费太多时间。总结并注意自己的薄弱环节。我不认为在两周内会有太大水平的提高。但是考试有时候还是有一定幸运的。如果考的是你熟悉的知识。

a) any additional amount borrowed against the home to pay for medical or educational expenses
的意思是：
以及任何用房屋抵押举借的、用于支付医疗或教育费用的任何额外的金额。
意思非常清晰。

但D
any additional payment of medical or educational expenses
D中，that were 中的were 有问题（应该为WAS），因为从逻辑上说that were borrowed against the home修饰的应该是additional payment。
(D) any additional payment of medical or educational expenses that were borrowed against the home

因为不能说费用是用房屋作抵押借来的，而应该是用借来的钱支付费用。
费用是实际发生的，不是借来的。

同意小美，模考的作用主要在于训练一下PACE和感觉，对于模考的成绩不必在意（尤其对于KAPLAN）。
幸好我没有做过KAPLAN。

gemj说不定是处女座的哦，真是讲究细节和完美，一丝不苟啊。

d'accord! very cool, gemj!
1, i don't see any big problem with 'by using', although 'with' reads perfect. any explanation?
2, right, u don't borrow 'payment', but 'amount of money'

Hippo, i suggest that u review OG, especially explanation. Good luck!

9.a中company应为复数，纵向比较一下应该很容易发现的吧
