标题: Season two——manhattan 21（ Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor）
21. According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.
A the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted
B famous because of “The Godfather,” the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted
C the ailing mobster, famous because of “The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted
D near to those he most trusted, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather”
E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted

选项解析：
The original sentence is correct. "Famous because of 'TheGod father'"and "near to those he most trusted" correctly modify"a town," which modifies Corleone. Noun modifiers must be next to the nouns that they describe. Thischoice contains no other errors.
(A) CORRECT.This answer choice is correct as it repeats the original sentence.
(B) This choice contains a modification error; "famousbecause of 'The God father'” incorrectly describes the prosecutor. Nounmodifiers modify the closest available noun.
(C) This choice contains a modification error; "famousbecause of 'The God father'" incorrectly describes the mobster. Nounmodifiers modify the closest available noun.
(D) This choice contains a modification error; "near to thosehe most trusted" incorrectly describes the prosecutor. Noun modifiersmodify the closest available noun.
(E) The modification is correct in this choice. "Famousbecause of 'The God father'" correctly modifies "Corleone".However, this sentence is unnecessarily wordy, "was the town that theailing mobster came to take refuge in" is much less concise than "theailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone" without making the meaningclearer.

题目点评：
本题涉及考点：修饰、代词

修饰成分必须保证其修饰对象准确无疑义。
首先，According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor，由此推测句子主干或者主语应该与黑手党或者非法活动有所关联；
第二，a town famous ………是修饰说明Corleone，因此必须紧接其后。
第三，famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he mosttrusted 也必须紧挨着修饰对象town。
符合以上所有条件的只有A选项。
此外，句子中出现一个代词he，D选项中有指代不清的嫌疑.

思维点评：
1，“在不理解句意的情况下，选C“——nhelpn
“ I guess it should be E“——helio5
所以说要尽量读懂题目。这道题目，所有理解句意的同学都做对了噢~~咱们做题的时候也许的确会遇到生词，比如这题里面的“黑手党”“检察官”，但是我们可以推断确定各个modifier的修饰对象，推断句子的主干。

2，“关于A，唯一一点不清楚的地方是 the ailingmobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he mosttrusted
这个是those单独指代么？它又指代什么呢？“——UlysessHope
“不过我有疑问就是those指代的是什么。”——Zidia
actually，对于很多同胞来讲，those是影响理解题意最大的障碍之一。这样看似“无所指”的词横空出现，难免让人一下乱了手脚，特别在做题紧张状态下就忘了理解题意，更忘了去发现原来每一个选项都有those这个问题。而事实上those并不是问题，those, many等这些词当不特指某些人的时候，是不需要指代对象的。知道这一点并不是最重要的，最重要的是一个做题步骤：看到某一个错误点，先停下阅读该选项，先迅速（不超过5秒）将该错误点在每一个选项check过去，看看别的选项有没有这个错误。要是这个"错误"在每一个选项都存在，要不它就不是错误，要不，它就是因为大家一起错，而不成为判断点。但是还有一点：如果某个选项“虽然也有那个错误，但是句式上有重大改变了”，那么要留意那个选项，可能已经通过改变句式来修正了那个错误。但是本题的E选项，其实并没有改变关于those这一点的表达，并没有让those变得有所指。有人说5秒太短，其实不然，当你集中精力、有目的性地去看题的时候，5秒足矣，这就是为什么有些大牛可以在10-15秒做完题的原因。

被动和主动所隐射的含义不同，详见悬赏令第一季第12篇：http://forum.chasedream.com/GMAT_SC/thread-590476-1-1.html

4，“根据according to打头，后面必须是对象” -- innerwarrior
according to后面不需要逻辑主语哦亲，包邮哦亲。还有regardlessof, in addition to等不用考虑逻辑主语。

作者: jeforever 时间: 2011-10-8 10:06
答案是: A

B: Acording to...後面接的modifier錯誤, famous because of “The Godfather"錯誤往前修飾了prosecutor, 應該是修飾Corleone才對. 排除!
C: (還是要按照句意來看, 一開始乍看之下以為C才是對的@@): famous because of “The Godfather 錯誤修飾 mobster, 應該是修飾Corleone才對. 改變原句句意, 排除!
D: Acording to...後面接的modifier錯誤, near to those he most trusted錯誤修飾prosecutor. 排除!
E: modifier皆修飾正確, 但是相較於A, wordy=> 排除!

A: famous because of “The Godfather”& near to those he mosttrusted正確修飾a town, 也就是 Corleone.

在不理解句意的情况下，选C

作者: daisyの小夢想 时间: 2011-10-8 12:23
语意、逻辑表达
A
在A和C之间犹豫。
在不知道单词意思情况下：
看到B和C 感觉是一样的。所以选A。
在理解语意时：
句子是说那个体弱的歹徒到C地避难，C地因God Father而闻名而且离他认为安全的地方很近。
所以选A。
BCD都曲解了原句意思。
而E表达有点啰嗦，虽然也是那个意思，但是被动语态在这里不好，
因为是according to the prosecutor, prosecutor是检举人的意思，检举人的陈述肯定是直接指出歹徒的行踪。(好像想得有点过多了)

作者: helio5 时间: 2011-10-8 13:16
I guess it should be E

21. According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.
A the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he mosttrusted
B famous because of “The Godfather,” theailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he mosttrusted
C the ailing mobster, famous because of“The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he mosttrusted
D near to those he most trusted, the ailingmobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather”
E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted

-- by 会员毛毛carina (2011/10/8 9:36:09)

我感觉A是相对较好的答案。

B中famous because of “The Godfather,” 错误的修饰了mobster或是prosecutor，是个dangling modifier，且夹心修饰
C中 famous because of“The Godfather,”错误修饰了mobster
D中 he 指代不明，不知道是指mobster还是prosecutor
E，我感觉逻辑上不符，根据 prosecutor的话，他是想阐述the ailing mobster怎么怎么了，而不是要说明Corleone这个地方怎么怎么了；而且 that...because it....感觉累赘

关于A，唯一一点不清楚的地方是 the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he mosttrusted
这个是those单独指代么？它又指代什么呢？

C the ailing mobster, famous because of“The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he mosttrusted

E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted

-- by 会员毛毛carina (2011/10/8 9:36:09)

感觉应该选A，A的表达最清楚而且逻辑上没有歧义。
B里面 famous because of “The Godfather,” the ailing mobster。。。会觉得mobster是famous的主语
C里面也是会觉得mobster是famous的主语
D里面 he指代不明，不知道指的是mobster还是prosecutor
E里面不必要的被动导致句子的中心转移了

根据语意，应该在A和C中间来选，但C改变了语意。 A里面的教父是修饰Corleone，而C改成了mobster。选A

作者: Jimmyzhang2012 时间: 2011-10-8 21:44
选A 考点可以归纳为:同位语需要对修饰对象具有解释力
B famous because of “The Godfather,” 不能修饰 prosecutor
C famous because of “The Godfather,” 不能修饰 mobster
D 和A选项相比 near to those he most trusted 夹心修饰即可以修饰prosecutor，也可以修饰mobster 不对
E 被动不及主动表达清晰明确

嘎嘎，终于开始新一轮了。。。
21. According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.
A the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he mosttrusted
B famous because of “The Godfather,” theailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he mosttrusted
C the ailing mobster, famous because of“The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he mosttrusted
D near to those he most trusted, the ailingmobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather”
E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted
解释：根据意大利首席反黑手党的检察官报道，这个生病的歹徒来到C这个地方来避难，C这个地方因为“教父”而有名，并且C这个地方靠近那些这个犯人最信任的地方。
我选A
根据according to打头，后面必须是对象，所以排除BD。
C的含义变成了这个歹徒因为"教父"很有名。
E的含义变成了据报道，C是一个town。意思有误。

作者: Zidia 时间: 2011-10-9 00:08
A
B. famous because of “The Godfather,” 夹心修饰
C. famous because of“The Godfather,” 用于修饰the ailing mobster，而原句是用于修饰a town (Corleone)，改变了原句意思
D. near to those he most trusted，夹心修饰
E. 原句的逻辑意思被改变了，变成ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone 是因为Corleone was near to those he most trusted，原句中没有这样的因果关系。

最终结论就是四个选项全部改变了A的逻辑意思，而A的逻辑意思我个人是看不出来有什么问题，所以选A

不过我有疑问就是those指代的是什么。

作者: ropingmoon 时间: 2011-10-9 00:43
这题我怎么觉得似曾相识呢。。。我依稀记得我还问过那个those指代什么的啊。。哎哟喂。。。衰老了么这是，肿么想不起来了+_+

21. According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.
句意：根据意大利最高反黑手党检察官，那个近况不太好的罪犯把C当作了避难所，因为C因为其“教父”而闻名而且距离那些他熟悉的人比较近。
A the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted
B famous because of “The Godfather,” theailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted
famous跟在prosecutor的后面，引发语义不详，原意修饰C但是这里感觉好像是说的prosecutor.
C the ailing mobster, famous because of“The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he mosttrusted
形容词famous跟在名词mobster的后面，语义混乱
D near to those he most trusted, the ailingmobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather”
he指代不明，应该知道mobster而不是prosecutor
E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted
后面的句子里面，it指代不明，因为最近的名词是refuge，而本意应该是指代the town C.

正确答案：A

作者: naiwm009 时间: 2011-10-10 13:09
还是原句比较顺，C有些awkward。
何时公布答案啊。。

21. According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.
A the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted?虽然觉得结构不是很平行，但是句意是正确的。
B famous because of “The Godfather,” the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted—》改变句意，变成了歹徒有名。。。
C the ailing mobster, famous because of “The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted—》同C
D near to those he most trusted, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather”—》改变句意，变成了歹徒靠近。。。
E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted—》随意添加的因果关系错。。。
逻辑语义啊！！！！！！！！！！！！

21. According to Italy's top anti-Mafia prosecutor, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of the “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted.

A the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather” and near to those he most trusted
those指代者不明

B famous because of “The Godfather,” the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted
两个clause修饰主语

C the ailing mobster, famous because of “The Godfather,” came to take refuge in Corleone, a town near to those he most trusted

D near to those he most trusted, the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone, a town famous because of “The Godfather”
he离the godfather过远

E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted
wordy

---------------------------------------------
单词（尤其是动词）不会导致猜错了，需要记住refuge

the ailing mobster came to take refuge in Corleone
这句理解成了，有病的龙虾(mobster )在Corleone被拒绝(refuge)了
实际是生病的暴徒在corleone得到庇护

E Corleone, famous because of “The Godfather,” was the town that the ailing mobster came to take refuge in because it was near to those he most trusted

1，he指代模糊。AC错。
2 famous because of “The Godfather,”应该修饰town。BCE错。
3，wordy。it指代模糊。E错。

正解D

------------

12/29第二遍：读D选项的时候，没有连着未划线部分一起读，导致修饰错误没有看出来。

回帖是美德，决定跟着看下去~

作者: pennyz 时间: 2013-2-8 22:41
感觉语义一不明白，什么都不会了。看了一下解释，感觉明天还要再细看

作者: zxppx 时间: 2013-5-4 11:08
我感觉那个those应该指代towns,虽然没有出现复数形式的towns，这在GMAT看来实际上是错误的！

作者: oneonta666 时间: 2015-5-3 14:12
答案：A。
我的思路： ACCORDING TO BLA BLA纯粹废话，后面因为全画线，所以快速浏览所有选项。确定应该 the ailing mobster是主语，这个主语去了一个town，后面的描述是修饰这是一个什么样的town的。有了这样的感觉E秒排。
D的修饰near to xxx不通，前后均有逗号，不考虑语义也会不清楚是修饰前还是后？排除。同理B去除。
C的问题很明显，是town有名，不是主语。因此选A。

PS：如果同学前面瞟了眼Mafia，在看到Corleone这种看起来就是地名的情况下，哪个修饰哪个就很明显了。

作者: AMBER513 时间: 2019-9-6 17:38
B 错， famous because of the godfather修饰corleone, 而不是ailing mobster
C错，同上
D错， near to those he most trusted修饰corleone,而不是ailing mobster.
E错，prosecutor表达的内容是mobster came to take refuge这个事件，而不是corleone was… near…这个客观事实
