The list of animals that exhibits a preference of either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include the lower vertebrates.
(A) exhibits a preference of either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include
(B) exhibits the preference to use either the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded and includes
(C) exhibit a preference in either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include
(D) exhibit a preference for using either the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include
(E) exhibit the preference as to either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded and includes
这是答案的解释(B) exhibits使用错误导致主谓不一致; and includes和has been平行,共同作为The list的谓语.则该句子可化为The list… has been expanded the lower vertebrates和The list… includes the lower vertebrates两个句子,前者明显不通.
可是我认为,如果把expand看成是不及物动词,那么就可以理解了。因为expand是先发生的已经完成的动作,而include是前面expand导致的现在发生的动作,所以就可以理解了啊
还有一个疑问有关preference惯用法的,我差了Longman Dic后发现和preference搭配有以下:1、preference for(a cultural preference for boy babies
)2、preference to do(Many elderly people expressed a strong preference to live in their own homes);3、preference as to(Parents may be able to express a preference as to the school their child will attend.)
然后我又想到了以前做的GMAT题,像这样的通常都会选to do而不用动名词的
请问,在本题里,对expand的理解是主要考察点还是对preference的用法是主要考察点?
preference for doing和preference to do都可以,但是前面的搭配更加常用。
解释上我觉得确实有问题,expand的作用对象是list,不可能是the lower vertebrates。但是expand一定是及物动词,不及物动词没有被动语态。
逻辑上include应该作为expanded的目的,所以用不定式更为合理。

哈哈,就是,expand肯定是及物动词,不然就没被动语态了,我真是笨啊
恩,我想了想,以后这种题都倾向于and两边的时态不应该不一致,因为我发现GMAT常常倾向于认为有and就意味着要平行对称,貌似大多数情况下and两边的时态都是一致的,前提条件是and连接的两个动作是一个主语发出的
谢谢,我也不能太钻牛角尖了,呵呵
