标题: OG 13 SC , 48题!!!OG 上的解释太含糊了....
48. It is called a sea, but the landlocked Caspian is actually the largest lake on Earth, which covers more than four times the surface area of its closest rival in size, North America's Lake Superior.

A. It is called a sea, but the landlocked Caspian is actually the largest lake on Earth, which covers
B. Although it is called a sea, actually the landlocked Caspian is the largest lake on Earth, which covers
C. Though called a sea, the landlocked Caspian is actually the largest lake on Earth, covering
D. Though called a sea but it actually is the largest lake on Earth, the landlocked Caspian covers
E. Despite being called a sea, the largest lake on Earth is actually the landlocked Caspian, covering

这题选C,我的问题是D、E 两个选项

能不能解释一下D选项的句子结构? D选项在OG 上的解释是“The structure here is grammatically incoherent ”...  介个实在是解释的太简略。。。。不明白啊~~

还有E 选项的解释是"Despite being called a sea indicates , somewhat illogically, that the largest lake being called a sea would lead one to expect it not to be the Caspian" ,也不是很明白~


谢谢各位!

despite和in spite of后面都加比较短的名词性词组,如果比较长或者那个意思无法用名词性词组表达,都应该换用让步状语从句,另外看到being就排除是一个做题窍门,基本99%都对。
og的解释意思是如果这样用的话,逻辑主语就是 the largerst lake ,而不是Caspian,意思上就有区别了,所以除去别的错误不说,E选项至少要把主句的主语和表语交换

至于D就是结构混乱,本身就结构混乱的句子,你还要我怎么说他的结构是什么呢,对不

D选项里though 和but同时使用有问题,而且though后面跟的是省略句,而but后又接了完整句,不对称。这样改或许会好些:Called a sea but actually the largest lake on Earth,the landlocked Caspian covers
E选项的逻辑意思有问题,也就是OG的解释Despite being called a sea indicates , somewhat illogically, that the largest lake being called a sea would lead one to expect it not to be the Caspian" despite 表示句意为转折,前面是called a sea 所以主句就应该是sea的反义词lake对应,而E中把这种逻辑对应关系弄反了。简化后句型应该为:Despite being a sea, it's actually a lake.

根据manhattan的modifier那章对应的og题目 没有看懂og关于 E的解释,搜了gmatclub之后 解释如下
“In E, called seems to refer to lake, but the intention here is to say that the landlocked CASPIAN is called a sea. Eliminate E. ”
如果根据修饰对象这个点 能够排除e 留此存档~ 谢谢attractg的帖子~
