标题: 求GWD25-Q31(开窍了)

31. GWD25-Q31

New items developed for automobiles in the 1997 model year included
  
a safer air bag, which, unlike previous air bags, eliminated the possibility
  
that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated, and making an
  
already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

A.      inflated, and making

B.       inflated, so that it could make

C.      inflated and made

D.      inflated and make

E.       inflated to make

答案给的E, 为什么D不对呢

而且to do 不是有目的的含义在里面吗,这个气囊引爆应该是一个突发事件不带有make passenger think the car was on fire这层目的吧?

求高人指教啊

防止气囊膨胀引起的烟,以及(and)防止这种烟给乘客带来着火的假象

烟和带来假象没有目的关系

只有两种关系,要么并列关系,也就是 would appear... and (would) make

要么就是伴随结果关系,would appear...., making...这种烟出现造成了什么什么的结果

这道还是有点晕
作者: 萍踪侠影    时间: 2008-12-11 22:58

同意楼主观点选D作正确答案。

假如E是正确答案,那么代入后半句为a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated to make an
                        
already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.这样可翻译为当气囊膨胀使乘客想起汽车着火的时候,一股烟将会冲出来。试想,气囊的膨胀怎么会使乘客想起汽车着火呢?

当然是D答案代入后句子翻译为“当气囊膨胀时,一股烟将会冲出来并使乘客想起汽车着火”。

A.      inflated, and making

C.      inflated and made

D.      inflated and make

E.       inflated to make

posibility后边用一个that从句修饰, 但是划掉that从句之后作者真正想说的的 possiblity to make an already terrified  passenger think...

这句话中最关键的问题是把壮语when the bag inflated提前了,如果把壮语放到句子最后,就容易理解得多了。

eliminated the possibility that a burst of smoke would appear to make an
   already terrified passenger think the car was on fire when the bag inflated。

不能用and 是因为用to 强调了烟雾出现的作用(危害)。比如,我们上学为了找工作与我们上学和找工作的意思是不同的。

should that answer be D rather than E?

From Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary:

A 'possibility' is a chance that something may happen or be true. Possibility cannot be followed by and infinitive.

Is there a possibility of finding a cure for AIDS ? (O)
Is there a possibility to find a cure for AIDS? (X)

Possiblity是that从句的先行词,为单数。

同意这里的说法

不定式表目的强调了烟雾产生时所带来的恐慌,并不是在说气囊本身存在目的,而是说由气囊产生的东西会带来另一些效果。

气囊-->烟雾-->恐慌  但是如果是 气囊-->烟雾&恐慌 就等于是说气囊产生恐慌了 是不准确的

误导 possibility后面只能加of 或者 for 不能用to
作者: MarioChow    时间: 2013-10-26 19:32
其实ideal的情况应该是possibility that smoke would appear when the bag inflated, making an …..
Make做伴随结果状语 但是这里明显没有这样的选项 所以找最能表达这层关系的(结果状语从句)
所以这里用to do不定式来表结果状语 是可以的 只是没有making用的那么多
首先and made应该是不行的 首先make和appear应该都从属于that后面的possibility没有必要用过去式
前面有个inflated也只是过去分词做bag的后置定语 并没有表达过去的意思
但是and make也是不对的 and make最不好就体现在并没有两个句子的从属关系 后面的是前面的伴随结果
所以不要忽略 to do不定式做状语的情况 一般做目的状语或者结果状语_


这里关于大家否定possibility to 的东西
这里的to do应该是做the smoke would appear 的目的状语 而不是possibility后面的内容吧

个人觉得是D
首先,我觉得最好的答案是  a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated,making an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.
此处表结果,做结果状语最好。因为膨胀的结果是使terrified passenger认为汽车着火。但是答案中没有这一选项。
E,to make 解释成appear to do,不对,这个短语是看起来像的意思,不能表达这一结果。   解释成 to make表目的更不对,因为表目的必须人做主语

31. GWD25-Q31New items developed for automobiles in the 1997 model year included  a safer  ...

首先我回应对possibility to make的分析,请看字典对possibility的解释如下:
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/possibility

[attach]161433[/attach]

其次,就算有possibility to make的解释,那对于to make,这句话就有两种理解:
1.        按这哥们说的 possibility to make,所以说是有可能性使得乘客受惊
2.        不定式to make做inflated的宾语,表示膨胀是使得乘客受惊的原因
那么这个使得乘客受惊到底是因为膨胀,还是因为可能性?这里就产生了歧义。

而D选项是绝对不会有歧义的,请看我的句子分解:
(SVO部分加粗,Modifiers按级别用{[(< >)]}分解,蓝、绿色为不同从句级别的SVO)

[attach]161434[/attach]

Make是和appear平行的,共同作为smoke这个that从句的谓语动词,表示smoke要做的两件事情(would是虚拟语气appear和make的助动词,表示对不太可能发生的事情的推测):
1.        烟出现(什么时候出现?when时间状语修饰告诉你,当bag膨胀的时候出现)
2.        延使得乘客受惊
逻辑语义上也确实是烟雾才会使得乘客受惊,包bag不会使得乘客受惊,可能性possibility这个抽象名词也不会使得乘客受惊

综上,选D

GWD25-Q31
New items developed for automobiles in the 1997 model year included
  a safer air bag, which, unlike previous air bags, eliminated the possibility
  that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated, and making an
  already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.
A.      inflated, and making
B.       inflated, so that it could make
C.      inflated and made
D.      inflated and make
E.       inflated to make

呵,这题果然是万年的D和E之争啊 虽然是神坑,但是这题的的确确就是选E,想平行的同学们都断错句了~

我们首先把答案代入原题看看句子是咋样子的:

D: ...a burst of smoke would appear ... and make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.
E: ...a burst of smoke would appear ... to make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

这就是题目坑人的第一点:when the bag inflated并不是主句的内容,考虑时应先忽略掉。

提取主句后就能看见差别了:

D: 因为and作为连词,appear和make是同级的。所以这句应该翻译为:「 a burst of smoke会出现,以及a burst of smoke让一个本来就惊恐的旅客以为车子着火了」
E: 这里我们应该理解成 【a burst of smoke would appear】to make,即「a burst of smoke会出现,让一个本来就惊恐的旅客以为车子着火了」

发现两者的差别了么!!!D选项把一个原本应该一体的句子割裂开来了,表达并不准确;E 的表达明显比前者要更为连贯合理。


让我猜猜以后会有多少人能点开到第6页看不同的讨论~
P.S. 说beatgmat里Ron大神说答案是B的都是什么鬼。。Ron是Manhattan的人,而Manhattan是绝对不会讨论这种来自GWD的题目的(版权原因)。

同意这个观点

但是E中的to,会不会造成歧义?虽说when the bag inflated是时间状语从句,但是 to make 到底是hi紧跟主句的would appear还是紧跟inflated?这里没有任何标志可以做出关于to make所属的判断。
如果选E,对于to make的理解可以有两种,
第一种理解:smoke出现让乘客恐慌
第二种理解:smoke在bag inflated的时候出现,这个inflate造成了乘客恐慌

所以排除了你说的possibility that to 的问题以后,我认为 E 的错误在于上述的歧义

这个纯粹是语义问题吧。。。

如果按你所说,to跟inflated,那这个句子后半截是:... the bag inflated to make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

是充气袋膨胀让旅客认为车子着火了呢,还是烟雾的出现让旅客认为车子着火呢?The answer is plain and simple~ 你认为的第二种理解过度联想了,to跟bag inflated的话讲的就是bag,其影响范围仅仅在when...这个分句里,和主句的smoke已经无关了。

根据RON视频中的说法,and只能平行连接两个独立的动作。
但RON也举出例子说GMAT偶尔会违反这条规则。

该题D选项的appear 。。。and make。。。,两个动作明显存在逻辑联系。
因此D选项并非perfect,但better than the others。

New items developed for automobiles in the 1997 model year included
  a safer air bag, which, unlike previous air bags, eliminated the possibility
  that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated, and making an
  already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.

D.      inflated and make
E.       inflated to make

這道題我覺得答案是D。
以下探討一下獨立出現的不定詞短語to V 跟平行邏輯語意的看法。

(皆以正確句舉例)

[ 獨立出現的不定詞短語to V ]

首先,獨立出現的意思是指,這個to沒有跟其他的動詞/名詞形成固定搭配(比如不是搭成use ... to, require...to, attempt...to, ability...to等等)而是獨立出現的在句中。這時候,其實這個to V是修飾最接近的動作,通常表其目的。這個V的邏輯主語,要抓它修飾的那個動作的發出者。

Under a provision of the Constitution that has never beenapplied. Congress is required to call a convention to consider possible amend­mentsto the document when formally asked to do so by the legisla­tures of two-thirdsof the states.
tto consider當call a convention...的目的,抓call的語意上的動作發出者Congress
Unlike a funded pension system, in Which contributions areinvested to pay future beneficiaries, Social Security is founded on apay-as-you-go approach
to pay 當are invested的目的,邏輯主語抓contributions
A proposal has beenmade to trim the horns from rhinoceroses to discourage poachers; the questionis whether tourists will continue to visit game parks to see rhinoceroses oncethe animals' horns have been trimmed.   
to visit表 visit game parks的目的,邏輯主語抓visit的動作發出者tourists

回到這個題目的E選項:
that a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated to make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.
邏輯主語抓inflated的動作發出者bag,換言之,句意是「bag make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire」
「氣囊膨脹讓人認為車子著火了」來,請大家先記住這個句意。接下來我們看平行結構。

[ 平行動詞的邏輯句意 ]

V1 and V2的平行有兩種情況:1. 列舉獨立事件 (這個大家很熟悉了) 2. 表直接的先後因果(這個就是這題的用法)

舉一個平行動詞表直接因果的正確句子:

Theonly way for growers to salvage frozen citrus is to have it quickly processedinto juice concentrate before warmer weather returns and rots the fruit.
句意上「天氣回暖」跟「暖天氣讓水果爛掉」是有直接因果關係的,而非獨立事件。

回到這一題的D選項:
「a burst of smoke would appear when the bag inflated, and make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.」
原形動詞make表示其與前面的appear平行,主詞為a burst of smoke,
核心句意為:「a burst of smoke would appear ... and make an already terrified passenger think the car was on fire.」
appear跟make有沒有因果呢?「一陣煙出現」「使人認為車子著火了」,常理可以理解的因果對吧?
這就是平行動詞的「表先後因果」用法。
而這句的make主詞為a burst of smoke,句意為「一陣煙使人認為車子著火」。好,這句話也記得。

最後,讓我們來把剛剛分析to V的最後一句拿過來對照。
E:「氣囊膨脹讓人認為車子著火」
D:「一陣煙讓人認為車子著火」

哪個更合理?不言自明了吧。
因此個人認為這題答案是D。原GWD參考答案有誤。

剛剛做了PREP這禮拜剛出的EXTENSION PACK 擴充包,都是新題做得膽戰心驚,還好最後考了750。
剛好遇到這題被GMAC從GWD收錄進PREP,附上截屏證明官方答案是像我上篇帖子分析的一樣,是D,這串帖子也該到這邊收尾了吧哈哈哈
