标题: 谁能解释一下prep2-15
In the mid-1920s the Hawthorne Works of the Western Electric Company was the scene of an intensive series of experiments that would investigate changes in working conditions as to their effects on workers' performance.
(A) that would investigate changes in working conditions as to their effects on workers' performance
(B) investigating the effects that changes in working conditions would have on workers' performance
(C) for investigating what the effects on workers' performance are that changes in working conditions would cause
(D) that investigated changes in working conditions' effects on workers' performance
(E) to investigate what the effects changes in working conditions would have on workers' performance
答案:B
这题的B是现代分词作定语修饰experiments,但是有个问题,这题的时间是mid-1920s ,怎么会用investigating修饰而不是用that investigated 呢?

(A) their指代不清楚,可能是changes,也可能是conditions;
(D) 表达不清晰,可以理解为changes in… effects,也可以理解为changes in working conditions。

但是这题的B也不该用investigating啊,因为是mid-1920s

investigating修饰experiments 表主动
作者: xueyu815 时间: 2008-8-5 23:18
我知道是表主动,但是在过去时不能用investigating直接修饰前面的experiment,因为时态不一致。
作者: zlzlaaaa 时间: 2008-8-5 23:31
doing可以修饰n在任何时态,不一定要是现在时,其他选项不合适
作者: xueyu815 时间: 2008-8-5 23:54
N+doing结构要求doing 的动作发生与主句谓语有同时性,否则不能使用n+doing结构
如:the boy who will come to see you is my son不等于the boy coming to see you is my son
另外有一题为证:OG10-1
The Wallerstein study indicates that even after a decade young men and women still experience some of the effects of a divorce occurring when a child.
A.occurring when a child
B.occurring when children
C.that occurred when a child
D.that occurred when they were children
E.that has occurred as each was a child

分词作后置定语用doing或done,表示主动或被动,与时态无关。

真的没听说过分词组定语的时代问题
另外即便你强调事态
这一题的时态也没什么问题
两个动作可以理解为是几乎同时的

哪位牛牛能演示一下在考上快速解这道题的思路吗?
感觉这个题比较纠结,要仔细分析,没法在1分多钟的时间内解决。
谢谢

现在分词表示持续性的动作,divorce不可能是持续的

n+doing只能还原成和主句同时间的或者是一般现在时,主句是过去时,根据意思判断该后置定语还原的定语从句也是过去时,所以选B没问题

这题我来稍微讲解一下吧
大背景是这样的,就像我们读一些中文,有些句子写的乱起八糟我们读两三个字就明白了,英文不是我们母语,这种语法题我们有时候句子读不出来就不敢判断,大多数人还是就一些标准化的语法点来解题的,区别只是语法点的积累程度多少而已,这是大陆学生的天生缺陷(其实也很好理解,读都读不出来了,就不要讲判断语法点了)
C可以直接排除没问题吧,错的太离谱了,for表示目的就不说了,后面that和最后的动词都不成句了
本体是局部修饰题,你看最后就可以了,未划线部分也没有it或者they和划线部分冲突,应该是指工作环境的变化对员工的影响,你看A只看局部好像环境的影响好像也说得通嘛,我们中文很多时候都这么说,但是有考点在这里,正确句意还是变化的影响,as to是regarding的意思,就近修饰,这里就变成"工作环境对工人的影响的变化",很拗口啊 当然我就这么说你可能也觉得听得懂,判断不出来
记住GMAT如果动词后连续两三个介宾结构合并在一起的时候错误率极高,除非固定搭配,介宾结构是很ambiguous的修饰语,D就是最明显的,是on performance调查了工作环境的效果的变化(错)还是调查了基于员工表现的工作环境的效果的变化(反正都错)
E是investigate the thing that effects changes读不出来啊 完全不知道他是什么意思,用了what就不要用effect了,不然就redundant了
