标题: TONY 请教OG 42 [打印本页] 作者: tony9721 时间: 2003-5-3 16:02 标题: TONY 请教OG 42 42. The current administration, [u]being worried over some foreign trade barriers being removed and our exports failing[/u] to increase as a result of deep cuts in the value of the dollar, has formed a group to study ways to sharpen our competitiveness. A. being worried over some foreign trade barriers being removed and our exports failing B. worrying over some foreign trade barriers being removed, also over the failure of our exports C. worried about the removal of some foreign trade barriers and the failure of our exports D. in that they were worried about the removal of some foreign trade barriers and also about the failure of our exports E. because of its worry concerning the removal of some foreign trade barriers, also concerning the failure of our exports Choice C is best because its phrasing is parallel and concise. A, D, and E begin with unnecessarily wordy phrases. Choice C also uses the idiomatic expression worried about rather than worried over (as in A) or worrying over (as in B); worried about is preferable when describing a condition rather than an action. Whereas C uses compact and parallel noun phrases such as the removal... and the failure ... , the other choices employ phrases that are wordy, awkward, or nonparallel. D is also flawed in that the plural pronoun they does not agree with the singular noun administration. 我有一个疑问,C这个选项中的worried是做动词谓语,还是做过去分词修饰The current administration。 如果作动词谓语,那么和后面的has formed就不存在并列了,可见不对 如果作过去分词,那么和The current administration地逻辑关系我又想不通,不应该用worrying更好吗, 应该是“当局关心”才对啊! 我想这个worried短语是可以提前,那么 Worrying about the removal of some foreign trade barriers and the failure of our exports,the current administration has formed a group to study ways to sharpen our competitiveness. 难道不比下面的答案好吗? Worried about the removal of some foreign trade barriers and the failure of our exports,the current administration has formed a group to study ways to sharpen our competitiveness. 作者: 1stzhang 时间: 2003-5-3 16:18
你看到过主语和谓语之间加逗号的吗?worried 本身可以做adj,这样你可以想通了吧。这里使用worried就是表示状态

worried [5wQrid] adj. 烦恼的, 为难的, 焦虑的 作者: braveMBA 时间: 2003-5-4 00:20
这里是过去分词表示动作状态,就象现在分词表示伴随和持续性动作一样,可以视为形容词使用,而不是真的用形容词意思。建议你做SC的时候一定要用排除法,而不是想每个选项的所有错误点。速度和正确率是关键,不是....作者: tony9721 时间: 2003-5-4 01:59
还是有些想不通,为什么形容词之后加了一个介词about 这样能对吗,我是不是比较笨啊!怎么讲了三遍都不理解, 可不可以详细一些,xiexie作者: mindfree 时间: 2003-5-4 03:38
be worried about是比较固定的搭配. 形容词和分词加介词是很常见的, you are responsible for what happened; I am scrared of him; GMAT中常见的capable of等.
