标题: OG12 58(just as)
58. A leading fi gure in the Scottish Enlightenment, Adam
Smith’s two major books are to democratic capitalism
what Marx’s Das Kapital is to socialism.
(A) Adam Smith’s two major books are to
democratic capitalism what
(B) Adam Smith’s two major books are to
democratic capitalism like
(C) Adam Smith’s two major books are to
democratic capitalism just as
(D) Adam Smith wrote two major books that are to
democratic capitalism similar to
(E) Adam Smith wrote two major books that are to
democratic capitalism what

Idiom; Logical predication
A leading fi gure in the Scottish Enlightenment
describes Adam Smith, not his two books, so the
name of Adam Smith must immediately follow
the opening phrase. Th e comparison between
Smith’s books and Marx’s book is expressed as a
ratio, so the correct idiomatic expression is x is to y
what a is to b.
A Th e opening phrase is a dangling modifi er
because it describes Smith, not his books.
B Th e opening phrase is a dangling modifi er;
like is an incorrect word for making the
comparison.
C Th e opening phrase is a dangling modifi er;
just as is an incorrect term for the comparison.
D Similar to is an incorrect conclusion to the
comparison introduced by are to.
E Correct. Th e opening phrase is followed by
the subject that it modifi es, Adam Smith,
and the comparison of the two men’s work is
presented idiomatically.
Th e correct answer is E.

答案没有问题， 知识不明白OG 中的C 选项 JUST AS IS AN INCORRECT TERM FOR THE COMPARISON 什么意思

谢谢帮忙

个人理解OG的意思是gmat范畴里，只有just as A do，so B do 这种固定的搭配，所以此题的just as 使用不正确

第二遍再次在同一 个地方倒下，，，

求nn 指导

c:  just as is an incorrect term for the comparison.
是不是用just as 表比较就错呢。

d中og 解释不是很懂阿。D Similar to is an incorrect conclusion to the
comparison introduced by are to.

c的意思就是在这里用just as来做比较是不正确的
D的意思其实跟C一样，只不过是换了一个说法
用similar to来引导be to的比较也是不对的
其实它怎么讲述不重要 关键是这个解释的重点在哪里

A is to B what C is to D.
记住这个句型就好、

刚看了一下小胖子语法心得，叙述内容如下：
what = just as,意为“恰像，犹如，好比”用作连词,引导比较状语从句
(1) 惯用句式是：A is to B what C is to D. 意为“A对B而言正如C对D一样”例如：
Air is to us What water is to fish.  空气对于我们犹如水对于鱼。(介词to表示两者的关系)
(2)    也有“A is for B what C is for D.”句式。例如：
Poultry is for the cook what canvas is for the paint. 厨师离不了家禽正如画家离不开画布一样。（介词for表示“供…使用”）
(3)    what 引导的从句也可以放在句首,其句式是: What C is to D, that A is to B.(= A is to B what C is to D.)
在这一结构中，喻体在前，主体在后，相当于“just as...,so...”结构,意思也是“A对B而言正如C对D一样”例如:
What blood vessel is to a man's body, that railway is to transportation.（=Just as blood vessel is to a man's body, so Railway is to transportation.）铁路对于运输,好比血管对于人体一样。
(4)    需要注意的是what不可以直接被just as替换，just as需要有遵循属于自己的平行比较格式。
不知道是否对LZ有帮助

疑问~这是两个从句并列还是that指代了前面的某个部分？若是指代了那that指代的哪部分呢？


后面蓝色的just as…so…是不是也算没有主句呢？

谢谢。

找到一个关于将just as... so 的详细讲解。（说到底还是要从平行的角度入手）
http://www.manhattangmat.com/forums/just-as-so-t1929.html

估计这点 善良人家 说的just as 自己的 平行结构一致。

A is to B what C is to D，这里to B作状语修饰A is what C is to D，其中what C is to D是表语从句，在这个表语从句里结构与主句相同。

可以看看prep08语法笔记的 229题
里面的解释说到：
just as A do, so B do.是平行比较结构的习惯搭配，意思是就如同A...B...
just as with和just like都是wordy的。
而just as的平行结构有：
just as ... , so...
just as... ,as...
just as... ,so too...

这道题目C选项说Just as是错误的，我觉得因为没有平行，just as出现后，第二个分句要出现so等才可以。这里的比较结构不完整，结构错误。

另外，manhattan里面提到just as可以单独用。
5TH 147页as的用法中有一条说：
JUST AS we did last year, we will win this year(=in the same way).
我感觉这个意思可能是用相同的方式，就像去年赢了一样，我们今年会用相同的方式赢。
而本句的意思绝不是以相同的方式。只是一个比对。两者的相互关系具体是以怎样的方式相关，肯定不是一样的。

prep08语法笔记还有一道题说的是just as开头的，但我记不清后面是否还有与其平行的词汇了，这道题找了半天没有找到，这两天要是找到了，再补充上来吧！

另外我个人的观点是just as有点累赘，as本来就可以表达像...一样的意思，为什么还要加一个Just~~
就跟just like很wordy一样~~

希望有帮助~
