D. placing them with others of their species,
E. placed with others of their species, then
“,but”连接完整句子(除非主语一致的省略情况)
B them,they指代不清; 而且逻辑主语they placing them...不太对劲,因为两个只带应该是一致的
C locusts,...,they they多余
D 同B
E 指代不清

多谢MM!

请问E难道不是状从省略吗?所谓的指代不清是什么指代不清?
作者: yunnan1990 时间: 2009-9-17 21:03
不好意思,搞错了,有when才是状从省略,可是为什么指代不清呢?
作者: serendipityh 时间: 2009-9-17 21:44
我觉得then 不对!

同求~

我觉得是then多了,已经有了个连词but,而placed with others of their species是修饰的成分,忽略。那么then在这里是什么意思呢。除非but后面跟的是个句子,再加then.要不然连个连词在一起肯定是不对的

有谁 能把这个then, 给仔细讲解一下

then是adv.不是conj.

A. when locusts are placed with others of their species,
B. when placing them with others of their species, then (“,but”后+新句子,placing的逻辑主语变成后面的they,错误)
C. locusts, when placed with others of their species,(locusts与后面的they矛盾)
D. placing them with others of their species,(“,but”后+新句子,placing逻辑主语为后面的they,错误)
E. placed with others of their species, then(“,but”后+新句子,placed的逻辑主语应该是locusts,they指代不清)

我认为该题没有they指代不清的错误,不能动不动就说they指代不清。
According to entomologists, single locusts are quiet creatures, but when locusts are placed with others of their species, they become excited, change color, vibrate, and even hum. 明显的,这里they指代single locusts,不会有歧义。
E. placed with others of their species, then
我觉得这句话要突出当locusts与其同类在一起时,他们才变得兴奋的意思。如果换成E,就没有当...的时候的意思了,变成了状语伴随状态的意思,句子意思改变了,这是个大错误。
另外E中then多余了。
Open to discuss。

they没有指代不清!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
作者: 小妖藏尼 时间: 2010-12-20 08:32
看有些解释是说把they当成Place的主语 觉得不太对啊

agree
作者: maratderk 时间: 2011-5-8 16:02
请问,but不是后面不能接when吗
作者: sycathyjc 时间: 2011-5-8 16:33
E应该是句子不完整吧。
作者: lllmmm 时间: 2011-5-9 08:54
then不对 没有then就对了
作者: bmny 时间: 2011-5-27 22:12
我觉得是含义上的问题,这里用when状语从句比较合适,表示某一特定情况下的反映,-ed伴随状语读起来总是有些奇怪
作者: xu_zhiheng 时间: 2011-5-28 15:28
E不是指代不清,E的WITH OTHERS OF THEIR PIECES很繁琐,定语从句要最简单化

but在这里是连词,when是副词

UP,还是不懂E为什么错了
作者: imluisfigo 时间: 2012-3-4 21:36
我同意E 多了一个then的说法. their指代的情况和A是一样的. 讨论一下then去掉的话but后面的是否可以认为是独立主格从而句子正确?
作者: evamimi 时间: 2012-3-8 11:06
我觉得越看A越怪啊
when locusts are placed with others of their species,虽然从语法上看没错,但是为什么非要加上个locusts呢
直接用when placed with others of their species, they become....不可以么?这个句子从头到尾主语都没变过啊
作者: wildmantomba 时间: 2012-4-22 13:18
they与it是完全指代,包含修饰成分
如果没有在后面重新指出locusts
那么they变成指代single locusts
在逻辑上似乎有那么一点怪怪的
作者: edwinwos 时间: 2012-4-23 11:13
我看过 外国的网站,都没说 then有问题!
那么那个then在这里的用法,不是GMAT要考的地方,
这题的考点应该是主语的问题,跟主语和修饰词的关系!
作者: 少将小霄 时间: 2012-7-25 09:01
刚才做到这道题了,个人感觉还是then有问题,but placed with .... 状语表状态,状态不能说还有个先后的then吧? 求指点~
作者: 2013fallBiz 时间: 2012-7-25 11:12
感觉这道题的主要考点不在then,then可有可无,但GMAT讲究conciseness,没有then更好.仔细看的话,所有含有then的选项都有其他错误,就是指代不清,造成ambiguity.比如选项“E” placed with others of their species,这个过去分词短语,其实修饰的是后面的“they become excited, change color, vibrate, and even hum“ 这里面"they”这个代词的指代明显模糊,是scientists,locusts还是其他的什么东西?GMAT忌讳ambiguity.对于they, it等代词,前面一定要有明确的antecedent也就是先行词来反映这个they或者it.
作者: pinkking 时间: 2012-7-25 17:32
不能加then啊
作者: 花露水6 时间: 2012-9-7 19:46
顶这个,说的挺有道理的!
作者: 小毅思 时间: 2012-9-11 23:03
到头来还是没有一个了结。 还是支持A。
作者: qiuhua01234567 时间: 2012-9-14 22:32
我觉得这题主要的考点是they是不是ambiguous,我一开始选的E。but平行对吧,那么they是优先指代locusts。但是我后来看看,为什么前面要用single,是一群?那么是不是应该用it指代才是?(集合名词)。我觉得then不是考点,虽然也很疑惑为什么放了个then。相比之下,A显得比较好点。

赞同~~~
they是完整指代,but前讲的是single locusts,but后讲的是locusts,所以在but后一定要出现locusts才能使未划线部分的they指代准确。所以选A,这时,未划线部分的they不是指代but前那个句子里和它平行的single locusts,而是指代划线部分的,与它最近的可指代对象---locusts
作者: 哈哈吧吧 时间: 2013-2-6 08:45
but后接when,没有问题
作者: sana0915 时间: 2017-9-30 09:56
The original subject is "single locusts".
The second part of the sentence doesn't describe single locusts. The subject of choice E is still "single locusts", so E is nonsense.
The appearance of "locusts" in choice A is NOT "less concise"; it's actually necessary, to specify that we're now discussing the behavior of locusts in general, not single locusts.
