139. The extraordinary diary of William Lyon Mackenzie King, prime minister of Canada for over twenty years, revealed that this most bland and circumspect of men was a mystic guided in both public and that this most bland and circumspect of men was a mystic guided in both public and
这道题答案不难选,但是意思不好理解!大家帮帮忙翻译一下!尤其是后面这部分:
that this most bland and circumspect of men was a mystic guided in both public and private life by omens, messages received at seances, and signs from heaven.
这个最寡欲、谨慎的人是个神秘的人物,无论他的政治生活还是私人生活,都受到预兆、降神会上得到的预言、以及来自天堂的信号的支配。
形容词最高级的省略形式:
the(或者其它限定词,如本题中的this) + 形容词最高级 + (单数名词 - 通常省略) + of + 复数名词
举个简单的例子可能更好理解:
the most elaborate (bird nest) of all bird nests
You are the smartest (boy) of all the boys in your class.

精彩!和我上次问的那道the poor有点相似,谢谢!

that 在什么时候可以省略?
谢谢!!

Can I ask one more question here?
Which is the subject that "guided in both public and private life..." modified? "this most bland and circumspect of men" or "a mystic"? or,it's same?
Thanks.

in choices C and D, that is required to introduce the clause x was a mystic if that introduces the second clause, he was guided....问个简单的问题,请大家别取笑。og这里是否是说C,D中的that本应修饰he was guided……,而that放在C,D中的位置时表示修饰 x was a mystic

不太明白你的意思,不过帮你顶。
我是被OG解释里的主被动句给搞迷糊了。in choices C and D, that is required to introduce the clause x was a mystic这前半句应该是说that在was a mystic后面吧,即was a mystic that,对吗? if that introduces the second clause, he was guided....这后半句是说that在he was guided前面即that he was guided, 对吗?
这样一来CD应该怎么修改呢?reveal this most bland and circumspect of men was a mystic that and that he was guided in...?
confusing
To 思谦mm::
我是这样理解的,OG解释中这句话的意思是:
在C、D项中,如果that引导了第二个从句(也就是that he was guided in both...),那么在引导第一个从句(this most..was a mystic)时,that也要求被使用。
言外之意:and连接的两个从句要平行,如果一个有了that, 另一个也要有that,
希望对你有所帮助。
大家参考这个解释吧,我比较认同这样的理解。
这题实际上是倒装结构
大家最关心的guided in …heaven是修饰mystic没错
由reveal that之后的原句应为
A mystic (who was) guided in both public and private life by omens, messages received at seances, and signs from heaven was this most bland and circumspect of men.
至于为什么要倒装,因为我们可以把原句以动词was为界限分为三个部分,
第一部分由A mystic (who was) guided in both public and private life by omens, messages received at seances, and signs from heaven
第二部分为was
第三部分为this most bland and circumspect of men.
很容易可以发现第一部分远较第三部分为长,这不是美国语法所喜欢的,当然符合文法啦,但有头重脚轻的味道,在文学上也不优!
因此会将此种句子作倒装。
所以guided in…heaven是修饰mystic没错。
这个是台湾的莫教授上课说的,他在在语言学上蛮有研究的,所以听他上课有时不会只有听到如何解题,会听到一些语言的来源,anyway,不见的对考GMAT有用啦!不过倒蛮有意思的。
谢谢 zhoushao jj
this most bland and circumspect of men was
为什么用WAS ? 我记得A and b 后面跟的谓语应该是复数啊????
