标题: GWD-24-41(不知何故，原链接失效）

请教XDJM们一道题目，原来这道题的讨论链接链接不上了。

GWD-24套-41

In California, a lack of genetic variation in the Argentine ant has allowed the species to spread widely; due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits the spread of this species in its native Argentina.

A. due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

B. due to its being so genetically similar the ant considers all its fellows to be a close relative and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit

C. because it is so genetically similar, the ant considers all its fellows to be close relatives and thus does not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

D. because they are so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be close relatives and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit

E. because of being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits

答案是C。为什么D不对？而且C中变成it is so 的句型是不是有加强语气的作用？原文好像没那么强烈的语气呀。

谢谢大家。

前面不是一个it is 么..

D是 they are.

原文的so genetically similar的确有强调语气的作用,in my opinion.

D中也有so啊.

the point is, C,D都用了so....that 句型哦.

对的，C 和D都用了 so ...that...这个不是问题所在；关键在于你说的so..that..是不是也是能够加强语气的。好像一般不能够把原文改成it is形式，太强烈，但这个我不确信。

另外D的 they are。因为之前的所有n.里面只有一个复数species,不会引起歧义吧，只能修饰这个species。这个和后面的逻辑也不矛盾啊。D错在哪里呢。。

the spread of this species in its native Argentina.

species这里是单数。

明白了明白了。多谢MM。

但C为什么用LIMITES不用LIMIT呢？

作者: ricee 时间: 2008-5-2 11:21

"the kind of colongy struggles" 表一类名词概念，是单数（强调其共性），大全里有一道类似的题：

正确答案代入后为：In the most common procedure for harvesting forage crops such as alfalfa, as much as 20 percent of the leaf and small-stem material, the most nutritious parts（注意此为同位语为复数，对应the leaf and small-stem material这两部分）of the plant, shatters and falls （对应20% of..整个短语）to the ground.

作者: jbyupei 时间: 2009-5-12 14:54

C 和 D 哪里有SO THAT 结构，后面的that是修饰STRUGGLE的。

我支持选D， they 指代 ants ，代词都是优先指代处于同位置的名词啊

作者: jbyupei 时间: 2009-5-12 14:57
还有，C错，有直接说 N is similar 的么，说相同至少也要有比较对象啊

作者: lcy19812000 时间: 2009-5-12 17:42

tricky!

我认为D相对C好，但是也错。

C有两个致命错误：1、limits；2、it is so genetically similar：作为读者你知道it（the species）和谁similar么？所以这是逻辑问题。

D中主谓一致了，但是they are so genetically similar to one another（它们和另一个很像）逻辑也不对吧（to one another改为to each other就好了）。

ABE就更不用说了。

另外，OG中强调过词组为consider X Y，而非consider X as/to be Y，这道题也不符合此规则。

open to discuss

作者: lcy19812000 时间: 2009-5-12 23:17

如果考场上遇到此题，我选D。

作者: soul86 时间: 2009-5-21 23:37

C主要问题是limits

但是没搞清 C 中的it 好些,还是D 的they 好

作者: sh784533 时间: 2009-6-28 18:03
谢谢9楼，才让我觉得有点被说服了……
但是it is so genetically similar还是觉得有点奇怪，it 是指代species? 如果是单数，自己跟自己怎么similar呢？

一语道破天机呐~~~

作者: Kisusis 时间: 2010-11-22 14:57
C中的it指代the ant，表示一类的概念，it is so genetically similar就说得通了（类似于整体名词family之类的？）
划线后面的its native。。中的its还是指代the ant‘s，以及划线前的ant也是单数，因此觉得划线中也要用单数比较和谐。。
但是C中的limits不知道作何解释？

作者: xbtqiqi 时间: 2010-11-25 02:07
标题: limits
N + 介词短语 + that中that跳跃修饰N
...................the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits
that 跳跃指代the kind limites用单数
这种类型的struggles，限制了。。。

作者: andrewsoo 时间: 2011-9-6 00:08
The answer has to be D.
First we eliminate A,B,and E because of the impropriety use of being.
Then we come down to C and D. Between C and D, D is preferable for that "it" in C technically refers back to the word "the species" and therefore it makes no sense by saying "the species is so genetically similar". Besides it is unidiomatic to say "something is similar". It's better if it says A is similar to B. Third, in the preposition phrase "the kind of struggles", "struggles" should be the word to determine the verb form of "limit" or "limits"(the same rule applies to "type", "kind", and "form" that the nouns closely follows these words are the determinant for the verb form, specifically, plural or simple ).

In answer D, "they are so genetically similar to one another" is correctly used in here, because the idiom"one another" is similar to "each other" only that the former is used when there are two things mentiond while the latter one is used when there are more than two thing mentioned. They works like "among" and "between".

For some guys, until you are 100 percent sure about why the right one is right, please stop misguiding others,or please do not pretend to be an authority. I can't stand that any more...

C选项最后struggles that limits这个修饰不合理吧。。。第一个排除了C
后来糊里糊涂选了D。。。

同意，
In California, a lack of genetic variation in the Argentine ant has allowed the species to spread widely; due to their being so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be a close relative and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limits the spread of this species in its native Argentina.

这个its只指代species，所以D选项用because they are so genetically similar是没有问题的。

两个代词各有各的功能。

可 because it is so genetically similar怎么理解呢？

作者: oc16chan 时间: 2013-12-20 03:40
我不认同limit可以限定在the kind； There is a standard way of solving such problems that puzzle all the students。这句相信大家没有疑义。
there is a collection of problems that puzzle all the students. 这句就和原句很像了，不是the kind去Limit，是struggles去limi；不是collection去puzzle，而是problems。

同时，没有提供任何参照物，而是把参照标准用副词限定在单数个体上，根本不符合逻辑。我觉得不可能是C。后面的its和species可以对应。

只是这题有个大问题，consider A to be B在GMAC本身是个big nono. 到底这题是不是真题。。。。。。。如果是真题，估计也不会再出现了。
