标题: 非常困惑，请帮忙~prep-158

158. (33377-!-item-!-188;#058&006720)

The largest trade-book publisher in the United States has announced the creation of a new digital imprint division, under which it will publish about 20 purely digital works to be sold online as either electronic books or downloadable copies that can be printed upon purchase.

(A) works to be sold online as either electronic books or

(B) works to sell them online, either as electronic books or

(D) works, and selling them online as either electronic books or as

(E) works, and it will sell them online either as electronic books or

答案A。

不定式的主语应该是it，即publisher,而不可能是digital works. 因此后面的to be sold online,逻辑上说的是digital works,而语法上是修饰publisher. 我觉得应该改成这样：it will publish about 20 purely digital works for it to be sold online

这样主语转换为书。

谁给我解释一下！

首先it只能指代同一对象，第二，will publish about 20 purely digital works （to be sold)跟在对象digital works后面我觉得没有任何问题，第三，works是复数名词，也不可以用it指代

你说的问题就是不定式做定语的一种用法 a work to be finished , a method to be taken into practice , a product to be put in production line 等等,相当于 which will be..的定语从句-某物将要被做某种处理.

LZ应该是想成了 do sth. to do 表动作目的的用法,此处不是.原因我不肯定:我觉得publish to sell这两个动词关系在GMAT中应该是并列.这个解释是我自己找do to do的很多例子想的,所有的to do目的部分都是我们不看不知道的,而public to sell如果是并列关系的话是符合句子特点的,要不然看得很别扭...这一点值得拍砖,帮你顶下,望讨论!

谢谢tianyi的解释，你提到的用法我确实见过。不定式作定语，记住了~
