标题: 大全956
Baker was perhaps not the most gifted soloist in the orchestra, but the conductor felt what was lacking in his technical skill was more than made up by the passion with which he played the music.


B) what he lacked in technical skill was more than made up by


C)whatever was lacking in technical skill was more tahn made up for by


D) whatever he lacked in technical skill was more than made up for by


E) whatever he lacked in technical skill he more than made up by


这题以前好像有人问过。但是我用关键词956没找到。谁能解释一下lack 和lacking 的用法,还有what 和whatever.


谢谢,答案B

lacking进行时,文中读不出有正在进行的意思。whatever意思是无论什么,文章说演奏技术上的欠缺,what的指代已经很清楚了,再来whatever意思有点过,不过我认为这不是主要的,主要还是make up和make up for的区别。

谢谢提醒,我又差了make up 和make up for, 意思相近,但还是有区别的。以前用中文理解还是有偏差。


1 make up for



to make a bad situation better, or replace something that has been lost



The team will be anxious to make up for a disappointing start to the season. I don't eat breakfast but I make up for it at lunch. The good days more than make up for the bad ones.


再问:lacking 为什么不能理解为形容词呢?


作者: tianwan    时间: 2004-3-12 00:29

1,spend: sb spend sth; cost: sth cost sb.... fficeffice" />



Lack 就像spend,主语永远是人。Lacking: be lacking in是一个固定搭配,主语也永远是人。



选项A把lack当成cost来用,肯定错。



2,make up, make up for都有弥补的意思



The passion with which he played the music more than made up what he lacked in technical skill. 为了强调宾语,将主动句的宾语提前作为被动句的主语。



3,More than=highly,very much等等表示较大程度的程度副词,在这里是个程度副词短语,注意!!than在这里绝对不是一个介词。



例如:我们可以说 He is deeply(greatly/highly/not a little/no end/all too/ever so/more than) impressed. 不管用哪一个都表示 He is deeply impressed.



ETS总是用这些很拽的词来减慢我们的阅读速度,但是只要我们熟悉了这些所谓正式用语(当然需要很长时间的积累),这种句子其实并不可怕。

大全979:


        The failing of the book lies not in a lack of attention to scientific detail but in the depiction of scenes of life and death in the marine world with emotional overtones that reduce the credibility of the work.


(A) the depiction of scenes of life and death in the marine world with emotional overtones that


(B) fact that it depicts marine world scenes of life and death as having emotional overtones that


(C) depiction of scenes of life and death in the marine world, whose emotional overtones


(D) depiction of marine world scenes of life and death, which have emotional overtones and thusA


(E) fact that if depicts scenes of life and death in the marine world, whose emotional overtones


这题中的in a lack of sth.是不是lack的另外一种用法?谢谢!

因为make up和make up for两个都是多义词,在本题的语境中语义相近,所以此题主要考查的应该不是他们的区别。

我觉得还是这个what和whatever里面的文章。除了语气上后者强,还有什么玄机呢?比如说后者在语义上是否发生了变化?用这个more than强调之后,是应该要求用whatever也引导一个强调语气与之配合呢,还是有了more than就不用再强调了呢?

请教。

在google找到这个句子

支持D!

longman字典

! Do not use the verb
                
lack

                
before 'in' or 'of':

                
We lack ideas (NOT We lack in/of ideas).

                
However, you can use the phrases

                
be lacking in

                
and

                
a lack:

                
We are lacking in ideas

                
OR

                
We have a lack of ideas.

另外lacking是作为形容词的 lacking in sth.

lack做名词才能接of Does their apparent lack of progress mean they are not doing their job properly?

偶觉得这题铁定选D,因为B的make up就是很容易被理解成别的意思。
作者: yingchunh    时间: 2008-1-18 02:38

在google找到这个句子

Ed was the original DIY filmmaker, and while he lacked technical skill, he more than made up for it

支持D


make up (do not need sth)
make up for sth
Ed was the original DIY filmmaker, and while he lacked technical skill, he more than made up for it.

而题目是:
9.Baker was perhaps not the most gifted soloist in the orchestra, but
the conductor felt what was lacking in his technical skill was more
than made up by the passion with which he played the music.
(A) what was lacking in his technical skill was more than made up by
(B) what he lacked in technical skill was more than made up by
(C) whatever was lacking in his technical skill was more than made up by
(D) whatever he lacked in technical skill was more than made up for by
(E) whatever he lacked in technical skill he more than made up by
如果选D,那么变成了whatever he lacked in technical skill was more than made up for by the passion with which he played the music.
注意这里少了sth.所以应该选B



作者: dingxiang    时间: 2008-7-1 15:06

不同意楼上的

这里没有少 make up for sth的sth.因为这里用的是被动,宾语是提前了

whatever he lacked in technical skill was more than made up for

其实可以看成 more than made up for whatever he lacked in technical skill
    

所以支持D

参照ajmclean提供的LONGMAN词条可以知道,lack 作动词时后不能接in/of,那么答案应该是在A和C中选择。我认为A更好些。


作者: KennyChenzju    时间: 2008-8-25 17:39

A的what was lacking in是错的,因为is lacking in的主语一定要是人

B是否可以这样理解:lack后面接的不是in,而是what,只是因为倒装被提前了。还原what所指代的,语序应该变成he lacked something in technical skill。这样理解的话,whatever就不对了,因为whatever是泛指。something需要是特指,所以用what

make up for 和make up方面的区别不是很清楚。

各位NN请指点下


作者: 吴羽若    时间: 2008-10-7 17:21
B和D之间的区别主要就是那个for,我当时就觉得made up for比较好,所以选了D。

关键估计也就在这个for上面。


作者: 天使的彩虹    时间: 2008-10-13 16:32

看了这么多,我最终也没搞清楚这个题目是B还是D。不过我个人觉得,这个题目是不是更多考WHAT 和WHATEVER的指代意思多啊,这个题目在考make up和make up for的差别吗?

lack的意思解决了。其他我没觉得有任何一个人说清楚这个题目的解释了。


作者: szy733    时间: 2009-2-24 08:52
up
作者: lupisces    时间: 2009-4-5 23:36

看了不少讨论还是不知道B or D

小结一下:A C是因为lacking的主语要是人。   B D lack后面是what,不是in

我倾向B ,因为我觉得more than 和 whatever感觉语气有点重复

The passion with which he played the music more than made up what/whatever he lacked in technical skill.

This question is a non-GMAT-like question. I would be very careful about studying from this source (to be more blunt: I wouldn't use the 1000SC source). Some of the questions are fine but many are not sufficiently GMAT-like and will lead you astray.

Ron was nice enough to try to give some direction here without dissing the source - so let me. This is not a good question. Don't study it.

1,spend: sb spend sth; cost: sth cost sb....



Lack 就像spend,主语永远是人。Lacking: be lacking in是一个固定搭配,主语也永远是人。



选项A把lack当成cost来用,肯定错。



2,make up, make up for都有弥补的意思



The passion with which he played the music more than made up what he lacked in technical skill. 为了强调宾语,将主动句的宾语提前作为被动句的主语。



3,More than=highly,very much等等表示较大程度的程度副词,在这里是个程度副词短语,注意!!than在这里绝对不是一个介词。

不就题论题地说,make up和make up for的区别是不是可以这么理解:

1.Make up for所弥补的就是exactly缺少的,所以11楼的句子

Ed was the original DIY filmmaker, and while he lacked technical skill, he more than made up for it.

这里Ed缺少的就是filmmaker的tech skill,他弥补的就是tech skill

2.但是make up就不一定了,只是弥补围绕一个主题的同样重要的技能,因此这题中

The passion with which he played the music more than made up what he lacked in technical skill.
弥补的不是exactly缺少的tech skill,而是用passion弥补play music所欠缺的tech skill,因此用make up。

以上。

whatever 翻译为“无论什么” 不对。

①make up和好;组成;构成;编造,虚构(故事、借口等);给…化妆
  Make up for =compensate for
②whatever is more idiomatic than what.
What并没有实际指出technical skills缺失的是什么
Whatever carries the sense of identifiteness.
