第60题 According to a recent poll,owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults,like that of earlier generations. 要小小地更正一下楼上同学说法。以免误导。 “Like”除了有和“AS”一样,表示“及其像,近乎相同”含义外,还有一个比喻的用法“相似”。另外Like强调名词比较,as强调动词比较。句意说,两代人的goal是一样的,最好用as。但是这只是一个Effictiveness的问题,不足以用它筛选答案。 重要的是:Like必须用作主语比较,根据modifier紧贴原则,like结构必须用在主语周围。 这里like置于句末,用来比较宾语,这种表达,标准英语里从未见过。 63 health officials estimated that 35 million Africans are in danger of contracting typanosomiasis or "African sleeping sickness,"a parastic disease spread by the bites of tsetse flies. D are endangered by contraction 做此题时 想着“根本大法”动词优于形容词优于抽象名词,就把其它选项统统排除, 但选项选了A,为什么根本大法在这里不适用呢? 没看过LZM,没上过新东方。不知道MM所说的“根本大法”。 但是有一个原则,在gmat里很重要:简洁有效。 In danger of typanosomiasis已经足够,没必要再加contracting。OF结构本来就是让你用个名词,你非要在加个动词,再把它变成名词,累赘。 第73题 the British Admiralty and the War Office met in March 1892 to consider a possible Russian attempt to seize Constantinople and how they would have to act militarily to deal with them. C what would be necessary militarily for dealing with such an event D what military action would be necessary in oder to deal with such an event 原句的意思说:军事上采取何种行动。 C的前半句表意十分含糊,并且改变了句义,军事上需要什么?需要服务,需要补给? 还是需要行动? 另外表示目的的话,to do结构,优于for doing。介词优先+名词,你何必把一个动词变成动名词,再置于for之后。想用动词,直接用语感上更加通顺不定式结构,就可以了。
