标题: TN－2 Q39贴一下manhattan RON的解释

Minivans carry as many as seven passengers and, compared with most sport utility vehicles, cost less, get better gas mileage, allow passengers to get in and out more easily, and have a smoother ride.

AMinivans carry as many as seven passengers and, compared with most sport utility vehicles, cost less,
BMinivans, which carry as many as seven passengers, compared with most sport utility vehicles, they cost less,
CMinivans carry as many as seven passengers, in comparison with most sport utility vehicles, and have a lower cost, they
DMinivans, carrying as many as seven passengers, compared with most sport utility vehicles, cost less,
EMinivans, which carry as many as seven passengers, compared with most sport utility vehicles the cost is lower, and they

我觉得RON的解释角度很到位，贴上来供大家分享。
我分析D项的时候是从compared的修饰歧义角度分析的，看了RON的分析又打开了一种思路。。。

my first complaint about (d) is that it's noticeably awkward, but you'd have to be a native speaker of english to pick up on that.

however, there's a problem of semantics (meaning) with (d). the modifier "...carrying..." seems to signify that the latter traits are only true of minivans when those minivans are actually carrying the requisite number of passengers. if they aren't, then all of a sudden those things aren't true anymore.

choice (a) correctly uses the conjunction "and", which implies that both things are true but don't necessarily have to do with each other (i.e., the # of passengers is independent of the other claims).

对D选项的分析应更多的从语义方面来看。首先，carrying这里修饰了minivans反而起了限定作用，既7人座的vans和suv的比较。但事实上是minivans不限定多少人，最多的可载7人。其次，从整句来看，A项是从载重和同suv的比较这两点来描述minivans的，并且载重是不参与比较suv的。而D选项，虽然包含很多信息，但单从句子来讲，只从同suv的比较来描述vans，而且carrying修饰了主语实际也是同suv作比较。所以，从整句结构来看，显然A选项更符合逻辑表达的习惯。
