自己頂一下~~~~貌似字體有點小，有點奇怪啊~~~作者: liuxuanlihao 时间: 2011-7-16 21:56
本人拙见 答案应该是D吧 AB的which使用错误直接排了 C，and that 的that单独出现有问题 E,后半句明显啰嗦，而且by nearly three-quarters扭曲了原文from nearly three-quarters 的意思作者: vinbobo 时间: 2011-7-16 22:07
For the first time in the modern era, non-Hispanic Whites are officially a minority in California, which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly there-quarters only a decade ago.
A. which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago which就近指代有问题 B. which amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when it was nearly three-quarters which就近指代有问题 C. and that amounts to a little less than half the population of the state, down from a decade ago, when they were nearly three-quarters that不对，同一事物 D. amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters a decade ago 有歧义，three quaters是down from的宾语,还是修饰a decade? E. amounting to a little less than half the population of the state, down from what it was a decade ago by nearly three-quarters
因此感觉E好

我也覺得是E，但是答案是D作者: megadreamer 时间: 2011-7-16 22:19
但是現在也覺得E表達得似乎是有點累贅！作者: megadreamer 时间: 2011-7-16 22:20
恩恩，ABC果斷排除了！作者: vinbobo 时间: 2011-7-16 22:31
不好意思，没有看清，E确实有很大的问题 就是那个by 把down from 3/4 变成了down from (what) by 3/4
且不说哪句是原意，因为GMAT并不是说那句意思就一定就要比表达的，这里的问题，我认为是在于，down from XX by 3/4可以改写为decrease by 3/4,原本是1/2不到，加加减减数量不对了作者: megadreamer 时间: 2011-7-16 22:34
你的意思是不是：by是表示增加或者减少的量对吧？那个原来的句子想表达的是减少到的结果，是一个状态？~作者: vinbobo 时间: 2011-7-16 22:41
