标题: og103

103. Students in the metropolitan school district lack math skills to such a large degree as to make it difficult to absorb them into a city economy becoming ever more dependent on information-based industries.


(A) lack math skills to such a large degree as to make it difficult to absorb them into a city economy becoming


(B) lack math skills to a large enough degree that they will be difficult to absorb into a city’s economy that becomes


(C) lack of math skills is so large as to be difficult to absorb them into a city’s economy that becomes


(D) are lacking so much in math skills as to be difficult to absorb into a city’s economy becomingE


(E) are so lacking in math skills that it will be difficult to absorb them into a city economy becoming


E的them指代students还是skills,为什么?
有absorb sth into sth


be absorbed in sth


be absorbed into sth


没有absorb sb into sth。

既然absord是及物动词,如果存在sb/sth be absorbed in/into sth,肯定就会有absord sb/sth into sth啊,GG钻进牛角尖里了

那them还是有指代的模糊啊。

them=students

absorb sb/sth into sth

here sb and sth have no different.

them 不是优先指代主句的主语students吗?

同一楼上的,

比如说:c答案:

lack of math skills is so large  as to be difficult to absorb them into a city’s economy that becomes

OG解释说them指代错误,就是因为lack作为名词成为这句话的主语lack of math skills is so large  。所以them 就优先指代这句话的主语lack了。

个人的体会。

优先指代好象是指代词作从句主语时优先指代主句主语吧,可是这里them是作不定式宾语啊,

而且og对C的解释是and them refers illogically to skills rather than students,

也并不是模糊指代了主句主语lack啊

希望有人进一步指点

(C) lack of math skills is so large as to be difficult to absorb them into a city’s economy that becomes

整个句子省略后为:students to absorb them into a city;这样一来,them根本不可能指代students,而是them出现之前的另外一个复数词:skills

(E) are so lacking in math skills that it will be difficult to absorb them into a city economy becoming

so that表结果,that后可以变成:to absorb them into a city will be difficult,这里的them优先指代主语,与前面各位说的相似,楼主疑惑的应该是C中的them为何不可指代students而E中可以指代的问题,上述的划线部分给出了我的个人意见。

OasisWater,整个句子省略后为:students to absorb them into a city;这样一来,them根本不可能指代students,而是them出现之前的另外一个复数词:skills,

你回的这句有点不能理解,为什么要这么省略,是怎么省出来的,这个them的解释相当困惑。

谢谢!!!

(E) are so lacking in math skills that it will be difficult to absorb them into a city economy becoming

我覺得them不會代到math skills

如果是代math skills應該是 are so lacking in math skills that it will be difficult to absorb themselves into a city economy..............

個人淺見 請指教

同问,再顶!

lack is a singular noun, but them is a plural pronourn .

hence the antecedent of them should be skills

正好在第二遍专研OG的解释,看了前辈们关于OG103的解释后,发现对于“them”的指代有争议。在此谈在下的看法:我认为them指代students,原因一:代词优先指代句中的主语;原因二:将此句翻译出来后似乎更加容易理解:在大城市,学生们的数学技能是如此的匮乏,以至于想将他们吸纳到日益依靠信息技术发展的城市经济当中的做法是相当困难的。

看完讨论贴,对them指代skills还是students还是没有定论.


请XDJM们再看看.

Up!



作者: vedder    时间: 2005-9-30 13:28

我觉得提出them指代的 朋友大多知道them应该指学生,他们的意思是them在这里为什么不算指代模糊?


能推测出指代谁就不算指代模糊吗?


那么og上大多数说指代模糊的题目其实我们都不觉得有多模糊,这也是我自己的问题,大家讨论!

1. 我覺得以優先指帶來看成立!


2. 我覺得的確是有指代不清之嫌, 但大家別忘了答案是比較出來的,ETS的正確答案並非都是完美的


若是此提的THEM非指students, 就會出現問題


但是雖然them有模糊之嫌, 他所想要指代的也是從文法角度說的通的students, NN們大可不必如此鑽牛角尖--我也常常犯這個問題呢!

首先说C:


103. Students in the metropolitan school district lack math skills to such a large degree as to make it difficult to absorb them into a city economy becoming ever more dependent on information-based industries.


(C) lack of math skills is so large as to be difficult to absorb them into a city’s economy that becomes


C的them只能指代skills


说实话,这个也是问了我老婆才彻底清楚的(她英语专业八级上了90分)


把C填进去,变成了Students in the metropolitan school district lack of math skills is so large as to be difficlut to absorb them into a city's economy that becomes ever more dependent on information-based industries.


这句话的主语是谁?Students不可能是主语,students是一个什么都不是的成分,主语是lack,students顶多是修饰lack的。lack是单数,不可能被them指代,所以them只能指代skills.
