代词的问题一直是头痛:
8. Lacking information about energy use, people tend to overestimate the amount of energy used by equipment. such as lights, that are visible and must be turned on and off and underestimate that used by unobtrusive equipment, such as water heaters.

(A) equipment, such as lights, that are visible and must be turned on and off and underestimate that

(B) equipment, such as lights, that are visible and must be turned on and off and underestimate it when

(C) equipment, such as lights, that is visible and must be turned on and off and underestimate it when

(D) visible equipment, such as lights, that must be turned on and off and underestimate that

(E) visible equipment, such as lights, that must be turned on and off and underestimate it when

答案是D米有问题. 想问的是

B,C,E中的IT-用来指代the amount合理么???参考OG199里面的IT. 这里的IT是不是也有这个错误.

让偶想到那个地震的题目:

199. Because the Earth’s crust is more solid there and thus better able to transmit shock waves, an earthquake of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it does in the West.

(A) of a given magnitude typically devastates an area 100 times greater in the eastern United States than it does in the West

(B) of a given magnitude will typically devastate 100 times the area if it occurs in the eastern United States instead of the West

(C) will typically devastate 100 times the area in the eastern United States than one of comparable magnitude occurring in the West

(D) in the eastern United States will typically devastate an area 100 times greater than will a quake of comparable magnitude occurring in the West（D）

(E) that occurs in the eastern United States will typically devastate 100 times more area than if it occurred with comparable magnitude in the West

At issue is the accurate expression of a complex comparison. Choice D, the best answer, presents the proper form of comparison, will typically devastate an area 100 times greater than will; thus, choice D logically indicates that earthquakes in the eastern United States are 100 times more devastating than are western earthquakes. Choices A, B, and E use it incorrectly to suggest that the same quake strikes both the eastern and the western United States. In choice C, 100 times the area... than is unidiomatic.

迷惑啊ing

求助!!!!!

it 代同物－原物。简单的说，这里就是代： amout used by visible equipment..... 很长的那一串。

that 代同类物。可以指代amout, 即可以代amout used by any other equipment,

地震的那题也是类似情况。还有OG里面有一条比较protein 的, 好像wheat 和rice 的问题，也涉及到。

og里头说地震里面的两个地震不是同一个东东, 所以不能用IT来指代. 这个里面的数量 (the amount)偶就是觉得也不是同一个东东, 所以这个里面的IT不能用. -----偶这个理解对不对???

此题里头并没有分析这个错误,偶觉得是故意的...

the amount of energy1和the amount of energy2肯定不是一个东东，that指amount of energy，it指the amount of energy1。

你的理解是对的。OG关于这一点比较含糊的提到了。 D, the best choice, correctly parallels the amount... used by with that used by, in which that is the pronoun substitute for amount. 但没有明确说明It不能代。

         各位分析的真好，佩服！

         pumpkin    MM真细心，我就没想过这么多，呵呵

         我觉得that应该指代amount，而不是amount of energy,似乎是省略了of energy

         it指代的是 the amount of energy

19. In addition to having more protein -than wheat does, the protein in rice is higher quality than that in wheat, with more of the amino acids essential to the human diet.fficeffice" />

(A) the protein in rice is higher quality than that in

(B) rice has protein of higher quality than that in

(C) the protein in rice is higher in quality than it is in

(D) rice protein is higher in quality than it is in

(E) rice has a protein higher in quality than

In this sentence, the initial clause modifies the nearest noun, identifying it as the thing being compared with wheat. By making protein the noun modified, choices A, C, and D illogically compare wheat with protein and claim that the protein in rice has more protein than wheat does.

In C and D, the comparative structure higher in quality than it is in
wheat absurdly suggests that rice protein contains wheat.

It指代带来的麻烦!!!

补充一下放在这里

看了大家的讨论深受启发，终于搞懂了一原来没想通的关于比较中的it特指和that泛指的问题。现贴过来供大家归类比较。
17. In the 1980’s the rate of increase of the minority population of the United States was nearly twice as fast as the 1970’s.
(A) twice as fast as
(B) twice as fast as it was in
(C) twice what it was in-正确
(D) two times faster than that of
(E) two times greater than
