GWD-9-Q1

A mixture of poems and short fiction, Jean Toomer’s Cane has been called one of the three best novels ever written by Black Americans—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man.

A.Black Americans—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man

B.Black Americans—including Native Son by Richard Wright and Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

C.a Black American—including Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man

D.a Black American—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man

E.a Black American—the others being Richard Wright’s Native Son and Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man

答案貌似是E 我选了B

问题是：为什么用 a Black American 而不用Black Americans
还有，B错在哪里了捏。。。。是因为破折号后面用including比较奇怪吗，including前面不能用破折号？

恳请NN们来帮忙~~

being本来就不一定错.

OG-12 101. Heavy commitment by an executive to a course of
action, especially if it has worked well in the past,
makes it likely to miss signs of incipient trouble or
misinterpret them when thev do appear.
(A) Heavy commitment by an executive to a course
of action, especially if it has worked well in the
past, makes it likely to miss signs of incipient
trouble or misinterpret them when they do
appear.
(B) An executive who is heavily committed to a
course of action, especially one that worked well
in the past, makes missing signs of incipient
trouble or misinterpreting ones likely when they
do appear.
(C) An executive who is heavily committed to a
course of action is likely to miss or misinterpret
signs of incipient trouble when they do appear,
especially if it has worked well in the past.
(D) Executives' being heavily committed to a course
of action, especially if it has worked well in the
past, makes them likely to miss signs of incipient
trouble or misinterpreting them when they do
appear.
(E) Being heavily committed to a course of action,
especially one that has worked well in the past,
is likely to make an executive miss signs of
incipient trouble or misinterpret them when they
do appear.

答案是E

我的理解是Being如果在状语或修饰成分的从句中表示被动或过去发生,则会显得多余.
例如:Being crashed by a car, the man lose one leg.(错)
Crashed by a car........就可以了.

但问题是这是有效性错误吧.而且如果Being后面是跟表语或宾语的话,being也没有什么不妥吧.例如这题里面

the others(主) being (谓)Richard Wright’s Native Son and Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man(宾)

A,including B，说明B应该是包含在A里面的，本题说的是三个中的另外两个是“ Richard Wright’s Native Son and Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man”，如果直接用including会产生歧义

这道题的答案在TN24套里就是B啊，a black american是不行的，这个by短语修饰的是三个作品，而不是仅那一个。

楼上答案错了~ 正确答案是E，不要误导童鞋喔~

GWD-9-Q1

A mixture of poems and short fiction, Jean Toomer’s Cane has been called one of the three best novels ever written by Black Americans—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man.

A. Black Americans—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man

B. Black Americans—including Native Son by Richard Wright and Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

C. a Black American—including Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man

D. a Black American—the others being Richard Wright, author of Native Son, and Ralph Ellison, author of Invisible Man

E. a Black American—the others being Richard Wright’s Native Son and Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man

Jean Toomer’s Cane 是由一个作者而不是三个作者写滴，A，B有歧义排除

C 中a Black American 不能 including 三个人吧.....排除

D 中 the others 对应的是 Jean Toomer’s Cane 书，不是作者喔~ 排除

E 正确而且Jean Toomer’s Cane ， Richard Wright’s Native Son ， Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man完美对称

破折号表示解释说明，而且后面的部分也是句子的一部分，Jean Tommer's Cane ... - including逻辑上是不对的
