…… 不一道一道发就不会有人鸟吗= =

作者: DUKB24 时间: 2012-10-16 17:04
yes

I'm afraid u r right....

作者: sawayisa 时间: 2012-10-16 17:53
马克一下，看能回答多少。

作者: DUKB24 时间: 2012-10-16 18:22
1. I’m not quite sure whether where and in which are interchangeable here... It is not a good split to me

B. there is no ambiguity in having （it modifies the preceding clause）；the usage of having here does not make sense..we need a noun modifier

other analysis seems fine to me

2. D.E all out because of the problem of logical subject

3. 43 percent of what？？？not clear ///also，the reference of it

E. illogical comparison

others seem right to me

4. nope ， u r wrong ... you should read the sentence more carefully to notice what parts are actually parallel ....

it is fourteen days that should be parallel to seven days ( the of is understood in the E choice)

I will pose my opinion on other questions later

I deeply suggest that you ask indeed one question at a thread

quite overwhelming and nerve-racking for seeing so many problems in one thread

作者: DUKB24 时间: 2012-10-16 18:34
6. every time cannot introduce relative clause; again i do not suggest u to do this kind of unofficial source

7. two events are being compared in term of the eye-catching effect; these two events are written in the form of that-clause;
u should make the two parts being compared as parallel as possible

8. it seems fine to me

9. you should use the meaning to figure it out (once again I do recommend u to analyze the OG and prep problems rather than doing this sorts of question)

10. I' m not quite understand what u r asking

感谢DUKB24，prep和og是最好的我也明白，但是这是楼主三战了，这两份资料的答案实在太清晰了，og又刷了一遍，所以想用新题检验一下效果如何。
莫非把prep08再刷一遍么？

另：我发现这么多题的确很蛋疼= = 我看解释都有点晕乎。。。。

我推荐你做manhattan的sc都比大全好。大全最致命的就是没有权威的解释。有时部分正确答案简直颠覆你对语法所建立起来的价值观。

论坛刚破解的prep12也可以

关于having,你的意思是不是：既然都是修饰Esaugetu Emissee这个人，没有必要一个用who引导的定从来修饰，一个又用ving来修饰？

另外，在表示动作的时候，have the power to do是不是应该比have the power of doing 要好？

他的意思是having在这里很明显是做状语对前一句修饰，而原句的真正意思是要对Esaugetu Emissee进行修饰。

这个解释很有道理。
