请教这道题的解题思路,谢谢。
Q8:
The 32 species that make up the dolphin family are closely related to whales and in fact include the animal known as the killer whale, which can grow to be 30 feet long and is famous for its aggressive hunting pods.
1、growing分词短语在这里可以做定语也可以做状语,有歧义。排除BC
2、E中it多余,错。
3、as big as 30 feet long好象不够简洁,而30 feet long已足够表示清楚意思,因此选A不选D。
"as big as", the second "as" is a prep. Therefore, it can only be followed by a noun, but not a adj.(....long)
This question shows why ETS sucks.
"can grow as big as 30 feet long" is definitely correct. But when it is put with "can grow to be 30 feet long", native English speakers will go with the latter because the latter is more concie and hence better.
agree with lixunhuan
"as big as", the second "as" is a prep. Therefore, it can only be followed by a noun, but not a adj.(....long)
as 用法如下:
Prep.
1. in the capacity, character, condition, or role of: acting as a mediator.充当调解人(t2b,)
2. In a manner similar to; the same as: On this issue they thought as one.在这个问题上,他们意见一致his face was as a mask Max Beerbohm. (t68)
Conj.
1. To the same degree or quantity that. Often used as a correlative after so or as: You are as sweet as sugar. The situation is not so bad as you suggest.你甜如蜜。情形不如你说的那样糟。

彩色的部分哪个as 表示连接阿?
i c
是省略了is-->...as sugar is.

为什么不省略Be,"can grow to 30 feet long", 这样不是更简洁?一看到Be感觉就是错的。
我也想知道为什么BE要在这里呢??为什么不省略???
我当时做的时候也是在A和D之间选不定,A的be不爽,D的as big as 30 feet long也不好
不过看了讨论还是觉得A稍微好点
我也选了D, 不过后来觉得选A比较好, 感觉D里面big和long语义有点重复, 虽然语法上没有错误. 就像不能说increase up to或decrease down to一样
终于知道了,as big as 30 feet long多别扭啊
应该是as long as 30 feet!
所以A对!
大家对A与E的看法呢???
为什么排除E???
期待08年应战GMAT同胞门将GWD讨论进行到底!
---08年待续!!!
终于知道了,as big as 30 feet long多别扭啊

还是不明白为什么不能用ing形式。。。。
为什么错啊
