OG19：
Over the past ten years cultivated sunflowers have become a major commercial crop, second only to soybeans as a source of vegetable oil.
(A) second only to soybeans as a source of vegetable oil
(B) second in importance to soybeans only as a source of vegetable oil
(C) being second in importance only to soybeans as a source of vegetable oil
(D) which, as a source of vegetable oil, is only second to soybeans
(E) as a source of vegetable oil only second to soybeans
答案选A

SC1000：
3. A collection of 38 poems by Phillis Wheatley, a slave, was published in the 1770's, the first book by a Black woman and it was only the second published by an American woman.
(A) it was only the second published by an American woman
(B) it was only the second that an American woman published
(C) the second one only published by an American woman
(D) the second one only that an American woman published
(E) only the second published by an American woman
答案选E

OG19那题的解释是，only second不一定就是第二重要，也可能是第三第四重要，仅仅是重要性排在了soybeans后。而second only就是第二重要。
那SC1000那题为什么就选了only the second呢？

球球大神们的解释！！谢谢大嘎！！！

试答一下，
第二道题应该是平行的问题吧，the first book ...and only the second...

我后来有看到很多前辈总结的一些gmat规矩像是only在句子里的位置不能随便移动不然可能会改变句子原意跟你分享一下噢不知道对你有没有用

only 后面的紧跟要强调的内容。OG1000那个题目，强调的是这本书的重要性，仅第二本（不是第一本，也不是第三本，第五本，第N本）；和第二本仅发表的（仅发表的，不是仅书写的，仅购买的，仅赠送的。。）
OG 19 second only to ‘大豆’（不是second to milk, second to apple, second to bread，etc；而是second ONLY to soybean）
only second to 大豆（强调和大豆的关系是， second. 不是first，third。。etc)

Ron曾经回帖说过尽量不要用SC1000了，说里面很多题和答案不准确。总之还是以官方的资料为准
