答案说B can potentially is redundant; in that theiris wordy, awkward and ambiguous. 1）不明白，为什么in that their就wordy和awkward了。 2）还有是不是在Gmat中in that 的选项总是不如because的选项。 3）还有A选项中的they为什么就是指代的property values 而不是large investors？ 好多问题，求解答啊求解答~~作者: 玄冥太子 时间: 2012-7-4 17:12

首先现在新的定义是in that不如because了，这是awkward吧
B中另外一个问题是第一个they指depressed property values, 后面紧跟的their根据A中whose的用法来看指的是homeowners，前后指代不一所以是ambiguous。作者: 玄冥太子 时间: 2012-7-5 09:41
恩恩，乱加情态动词和强加因果的确不对。可是their和they必须是指待同样的东西咯？是不是如若想指代不同的东西需要再重复那个名词？ 是这个意思么？？作者: yakev6 时间: 2012-9-18 16:23
in that 表示相关关系 because 表示因果关系

Although ice particles in the upper atmosphere benefit Earth in that they reflect and absorb solar radiation, acting as a global thermostat and thus keeping Earth from either burning up or freezing over, they also accelerate the destruction of the ozone layer by reacting with chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's).
The parachutelike membranes of Africa's scaly-tailed flying squirrels differ from those of the flying squirrels in the family Sciuridae in that they are attached to a cartilage rod at the elbow rather than at the wrist.作者: sisichen666 时间: 2012-9-18 20:49
LS的牛牛。。。在og12中提到过in that的使用已经过时了。。那是不是可以就不考虑了呀。。。。。。。。。作者: yakev6 时间: 2012-9-19 02:53
in that表示correlation，A in that B , 可以从B看出A的存在，翻译成在于。 because 表示cause-effect relation，A because B, B是A的原因，翻译成因为。
