标题: 马上考试 谢谢帮解此题
Archaeologists in Egypt have excavated a5,000-year-old wooden hull that is the earliest surviving example of a"built" boat--in other words, a boat constructed out of planks fittedtogether--and that thus represents a major advance, in terms ofboat-building technology, over the dugout logs and reed vessels of more ancientvintage.

(A) together--and that thus represents
(B) together--and this has represented
(C) together, and it represents
(D) together that was representing
(E) together to represent

选a? that is the ealiest...和that represents...平行。而且破折号多数情况下应该成对粗现的吧
作者: akaa    时间: 2012-11-25 11:24
我觉得选C

(A) together--and that thus represents
tthus多余,因为前后不是因果关系

(B) together--and this has represented
has represented现在完成时不恰当,不是过去代表,应该最好用一般现在时

(C) together, and it represents
对哒~

(D) together that was representing
that前没有逗号,紧跟着修饰planks,错啦吧。was representing是曾经代表而且用进行时有点奇怪,这里句意说现在代表

(E) together to represent
to represent 表目的,这里不合适

正確選項是A。

【關於dash用法,請看Stacey解釋】
The long dash is used to indicate an example or an aside. Only the example or aside goes inside the dash, so that example either has to go all the way to the end of the sentence or we need to "close" the dash at some point by putting a second one in. In this case, the "in other words" text only applies to the "built boat" concept, so I want to "close" the dash when I'm done talking about it. So eliminate C, D, and E. 【就是說如果dash的解釋說明是在句中的話,解釋完以後要再加一個dash來表示解釋結束】

(A)句意表示hull是現存最早的example,以及代表了boat-building technology的advance,這兩個意思並列,用that平行(定語從句,相同的關係代詞)描述沒問題。
(B)MANHATTAN說,this/these在GMAT裏面不能單獨當做noun來用
(C)it根據meaning原則可能指代hull,同時可有可能指代離它最近的boat,pronoun ambiguity。另,假如這裡it真的指代hull了,那A就更加對了。因為既然前後兩句話subject相同,就沒有必要在用it重複指代了,A中的that就够了。
(D)that作為限定性定語從句,先行詞應該是離它最近的前面的noun,was對應planks錯。而且意思上也不符合。
(E)infinitive作為construct的verb modifier表示目的,就是說5000年前Egyptians construct boat是爲了5000年后去represent a major advance。Not make sense.

选A吧,C项中it 向前的话有两个可以指代的,造成了指代不明确。同时,就算it指代正确hull,也不应该用it,应该省略,会造成wordy

嗯,这个解释好


从分号去判断句意


理清楚哪些是例子说明问题的

谢谢,Terrace的解答!破折号的用法受教了!


但有个问题请教~

hull和boat不是一个东西吗?C选项 it为什么会产生pronoun ambiguity呢?

同意ls.另外即使它們倆意思真的一樣,但是如果在句子裏面還是兩個不一樣的詞語的話,我覺得還是會存在歧義的,因為對於同一個意思有兩個可以選擇的完全對等的antecedent,已經違背了它指代唯一性的原則了

umm...如果我的记忆没有偏差的话,如果两个词是等同的,是可以这么修饰的,不存在歧义,这里没有违背指代唯一性原则。。。
找到一个具体的例子:The thirteen original British colonies in North America, some formed as commercial ventures, others as religious havens, each had a written charter that set forth its form of government and the rights of the colonists.

A.some formed as commercial ventures, others as religious havens, each had a written charter

B.some being formed as a commercial venture, others as religious havens, all of which had written charters

C.some that formed as commercial ventures, others as religious havens, all had written charters

D.with some being formed as a commercial venture, others as religious havens, all had a written charter(A)

E.with some formed as commercial ventures, while others as religious havens, each had a written charter

答案虽然不是D,但是根据PREP的解答:with的存在使得some并不是指代colonies,而是与colonies相关的东西;all与后面的its单复形式不统一;这里with并没有夹心修饰的歧义,因为all/eachcolonies是同一样东西,所以向前向后修饰逻辑上都一样
而且manhattan的解释上也没有提出这里有问题,所以只要二者是相同的,即使不是同一个词,是可以这么修饰的~~

Dear ls, 不太懂你所指的沒有ambiguity是說哪裡?D項all前面有與colonies意思相同但是寫法不同的詞,除了pronouns?
另,關於with後面的some指代的不是colonies的說法,請看下面的link。Ron一開始的卻說了不是,但是後面又把它改回來說是了。

额。。。解释粘多了。。。
不管some是不是指代colonies,这里的with修饰的时候并没有产生任何歧义,但是注意这里的结构简化就是:N1,with...,N2 do....这种结构一般都会有修饰歧义的,因为with既可以修饰N1,也可以修饰N2,但是这里N2(each)就是指代N1(colonies),所以不会有歧义。。。
作者: yiqing2012    时间: 2012-11-27 22:04
另外,ron在哪一楼说了some指代的是colonies?我没看到啊。。。你是不是理解错意思了。。。

關於ambiguity的問題,我覺得我貌似不是跟你討論同一個內容咯。
then,Ron’s回覆:
here's an example:
ron has a very full schedule this week, with every one of his available time slots occupied.
--> this sentence works, because "with" actually applies to ron and/or his schedule -- i.e., ron is the person with those occupied time slots, and/or his schedule is actually the thing with those time slots.
in (e), "some" is referring to the colonies themselves, so that sentence is literally talking about "colonies with colonies". that doesn't make sense.
