请教Q3: A
The state has proposed new rules that would set minimum staffing levels for nurses, rules intended to ensure that at least one nurse is assigned for every four patients put through triage in a hospital emergency room.
为什么E不对呢?
Answer:
1. "this" cannot refer to "rules". run-on
2. "at least one nurse" is preferable to "one nurse at least"
this is a standard 'tong2 wei4 yu3' question. proposed new rules...., rules.....
根据ensure 的用法:ensure + noun; 或者 ensure + that...
排除B,C,E
A,D 排除D
rules是同位语,后面紧跟的intended...是rules的修饰语啊。可以理解为 rules that are intended to...
同样的道理,后面的put through triage 是修饰patients的。
可是,我做题的时候很自然想到intended to 修饰rules,居然没有想到put through triage 修饰patients。。。该打,该打!
是不是没有with the intent of这样的用法?
只有with the intention of 和intended to 这样的用法
from Longman:
with intent to do something. e.g. He is charged with possession of a gun with intent to commit a robbery.
intend v.
1
to have something in your mind as a plan or purpose
ᅳsee also intention
intend to do something
I intend to spend the night there.
intend somebody/something to do something
I didn't intend her to see the painting until it was finished. I never intended things to turn out the way they did.
intend that
It is intended that these meetings will become a regular event.
intend doing something
We intend looking at the situation again.
I fully intend (=definitely intend) to return home next year.
2
be intended for somebody/something
to be provided or designed for a particular purpose or person
The book is intended for children aged 5-7.
3
intended target/victim/destination etc
the person, thing, result etc that an action is intended to affect or reach
It seems likely that General Rogers was the killer's intended victim.
C选项错了,是为什么呢?Ensure 后要j加that 马?
C is wrong, because:
1."rules intending " is wrong!
2."Patients..put... " should be as close as posible!
3.as you said, no "that" after ensuring
run-on吗?没有吧
A:正确
B:rules怎么能跟with the intent呢,逻辑错误吧
C:同理,rules也不能跟intending,intending的逻辑主语应该是人或者其他;put through triage理patient太远了
D:should be不如is好,ensuring已经强调了这种语气;that are put through triage修饰错误
E:this作为代词不能只带前面的句子;改变句子结构,将同位语改为与主句并列的句子
ensure that 好一点,ensure 加名词也很多,举几个例子,都是GMAT里的:
An inventory equal to 90 days sales is as much as even the strongest businesses carry, and the only as a way to anticipate higher prices or ensure against shortages.
The commission acknowledged that no amount of money or staff members can ensure the safety of people who live in the vicinity of a nuclear plant, but it approved the installation because it believed that all reasonable precautions had been taken.
To ensure consistently high quality in its merchandise, the chain of retail stores became involved in every aspect of their suppliers’ operations, dictating not only the number of stitches and the width of the hem in every garment as well as the profit margins of those suppliers.
Even though its per capita food supply hardly increased during two decades, stringent rationing and planned distribution have allowed the People’s Republic of China to ensure nutritional levels of 2,000 calories per person per day for its population.
Researchers tested small areas of the anteater’s snout in order to ensure that only electroreceptors were responding to the stimulus.
be necessary to ensure that the benefits of the innovation will be spread throughout the society

intend的主语可以是rules而不必是人或人的行为?
那其它类似的动词还有哪些?
with the intent of/intending主语就应该是state对吧?
A里be intented 是被动,所以可以修饰rules。看来intend这个动作终究还是要人发出的
另外C中如果用现在分词
,那么就是is做谓语动词了,rules( )is assigned 显然改变意思,成了2个句子,而之间没有任何连词,显然run on
下面是原话来源:
Under the California proposal, every four patients put through triage in an emergency room will be assured at least one nurse between them. Currently, the ratio averages between 1-to-6 and 1-to-8, DeMoro said.

我在做这个题目的时候不知道triage是什么意思..如果知道了.肯定就不会把put through triage 和patients分开了..现在把triage的意思贴出来..以便跟我犯一样错误的XDJM们..
Triage: the method of deciding who receives medical treatment first, according to how seriously someone is injured
They were also asked how much total waiting time elapsed between triage and departure from the emergency room.
估计没人傻得跟我一样吧..呵呵.还是贴出来好..

这样的话.rules intended 可以看成是rules that are intended的省略了.
The state has proposed new rules that would set minimum staffing levels for nurses, rules intended to ensure that at least one nurse is assigned for every four patients put through triage in a hospital emergency room.
这里的Rules 是 前面rules 的同位语,而且intended 是 被动形态 原形是 which is intended
那么这样就是解释通了。。。我看句子太粗心了选了B
把握句子的结构才是王道啊
