标题: 关于OG13上一道讨论烂掉的经典题目
SC7. The intricate structure of the compound insect eye,having hundreds of miniature eyes called ommatidia, help explain why scientists have assumed that itevolved independently of the vertebrate eye.

(A) having hundreds of miniature eyes called ommatidia, help explain why scientists have assumed that it


(B) having hundreds of miniature eyes that are called ommatidia, helps explain why scientists have assumed that they


(C) with its hundreds of miniature eyes that are called ommatidia, helps explain scientists’ assuming that they


(D) with its hundreds of miniature eyes called ommatidia, help explain scientists’ assuming that it


(E) with its hundreds of miniature eyes called ommatidia, helps explain why scientists have assumed that it

这道题选对了,看各位讨论的主要是with结构,我这里倒不是这块有问题,而是关于C选项中的scientists' assuming,解析上说assuming + possessive这个结构unwarranted,想请教各位NN,为什么这种结构不好?是类似于Manhattan上说的能用动词就尽量不用形容词或者名词的道理吗?谢谢各位啦~~

个人觉得有几个原因,第一个是assuming完全可以用assumption,第二个这种结构在GMAT中有可能会造成歧义。

C项能够体会出:要explain科学家的假设;D项则是要解释为什么科学家已经提出了这个假设。两者是语义上是有一点差别的。而原句的意思是要表达后者。而GMAT比较强调concise和precise,所以这就是manhattan为什么会说能用从句,而不要尽量用形容词或名词

thx!!仔细读了一下,CE就assuming与why assumed that还是有区别的,确实如您所说,C在说解释科学家们的一个assuming而E则在说assume的动机是什么。受教了~
