XDF，SET11

16. Because natural gas is composed mostly of methane, a simple hydrocarbon, vehicles powered by natural gas emit less of certain pollutants than the burning of gasoline or diesel fuel.(A) less of certain pollutants than the burning of gasoline or diesel fuel
(B) fewer of certain pollutants than burning gasoline or diesel fuel do
(C) less of certain pollutants than gasoline or diesel fuel
(D) fewer of certain pollutants than does burning gasoline or diesel fuel
(E) less of certain pollutants than those burning gasoline or diesel fuel

答案是选E的，但是还是迷惑
certain pollutants 是复数吧，那么怎么可以用LESS来修饰呢
而且LESS后面对应的是THOSE，怎么看怎么便扭

同理，一道类似的八月JJ
35. Because of XXX, the grain produces in country A reduced to 1345 tons,(_______).
a. 45% less than those of country B.
b. 45% fewer than that of country B.
这道题的主语是grain produces，是复数形式
但是答案A中less和those对应
而fewer 却和that 并列

搞糊涂了

XDF SET 13

5. The expected rise in the price of oil could be a serious impact to industrialized nations and severely diminish the possibility to have an economy free of inflation.
(A) be a serious impact to industrialized nations and severely diminish the possibility to have
(B) seriously impact on industrialized nations and severely impede the possibility to have
(C) seriously impact on industrialized nations and severely impede the possibility of having
(D) have a serious impact on industrialized nations and severely impede the possibility to have
(E) have a serious impact on industrialized nations and severely diminish the possibility of having

答案选E
我本来选B的，因为感觉形式上更为对称
是不是B中的impact只能做名词，而不能用做动词的？
但是感觉E的形式不对称啊

171
the rules that govern political contributions are less stringent in local elections than they are in national elections because they typically involve smaller amounts of money and present less opportunity for abuse.
(a) the rules that govern political contributions are less stringent in local elections than they are in national elections because they typically involve smaller amounts of money and present less opportunity for abuse.
(b) because they typically involve smaller amounts of money and present less opportunity for abuse, the rules that govern political contributions are less stringent in local elections than the rules are less stringent in local elections than the rules are in national elections.
(c) the rules that govern political contributions are less stringent in local elections than national elections because they typically involve smaller amounts of money and present less opportunity for abuse.
(d) because local elections typically involve smaller amounts of money and present less opportunity for abuse than national elections, the rules that govern local political contributions are less stringent than national contributions.
(e) the rules that govern political contributions are less stringent in local elections than they are in national elections because local elections typically involve smaller amounts of money and present less opportunity for abuse.

答案选e，可是e中前面是the rules in local elections 后面是 in national elections
前后两个rules明显是不一样的
怎么可以用they 替代呢
因为记得OG中有道类似的地震题
他说这里的earthques 和那里的earthques是不一样的,
所以不能用them 代替的
这里呢

这道题我琢磨了一下，虽然说E没有B那么形式上的对称，但其实B，C，D都犯了致命的错误：替换关键词diminish为 impede，你想想，一件事情的可能性可以被impede吗？显然不能，只能diminish，要说一件事情被impede才可以。所以，多从逻辑意思上判断比单纯的语法要更加有效。这道题的错误很典型，你可以再体会体会。

这道题，我也不是很清楚，因为按道理来说it就是指代核心词包括修饰词，they应该也是，哪位NN能解释一下这个问题？？？

双手赞同remeo对第5题的解释。
ETS考这种动宾不当搭配挺多的。
祈晴坊主劳苦功高，为我们做了很多事情，大家多支持啊！

祈晴坊主说的“地震题”如下：
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
(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
我也认为THEY指代RULES不好，但其他的更不好。
C，D中rules分别与national elections及national contributions比较是不符逻辑的。A、B更乱。所以相比而言E最好。
这难道就是ETS耍的花招？

谢谢两位的解释

考试遇到类似的就麻烦了

还有我前面的疑问

就是分词短语和定语从句的修饰问题

谁能帮忙看看啊

先谢了

我的补充材料上答案是E啊

好象gemj GG的885上面也是E啊

nickynicky · 发表于 2003-10-7 23:00:00

对不起，我是说那个地震题，我记得是D啊。。。现在找不到原题了。。没办法证实。
