prep37 大家帮我解答一下吧 后天考了 谢谢

37. In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting East African cave paintings.

A.  Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting

B.  Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and by painstakingly documenting

C.  Leakey was a contributor to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of

D.  Leakey’s contributions to archaeology include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and her painstaking documentation of

E.  Leakey’s contributions to archaeology include her discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of

答案是D

之前看过牛牛的总结不是说所有格结构+名词，中心词是后面的名词，代词无法指代所有格吗？那么这题的her怎么指代Leakey呢？记得牛牛的例子是：MARY’S car…,she…是错的，但是如果根据结构平行来判断似乎只有D对

代词指代和结构平行哪个优先呢？
        大家帮帮忙吧，真疑惑！

我覺得你可以從句子的意識來理解。d --include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and her painstaking documentation of  包括他的發現of XXXX, 和他的資料ofXXXX.

a- doucumenting 錯与discovery 不paralle.

b-same as above

c- Leakey was a contributor vs. the first sentence her work..does not paralle.

E- discoverying vs doucumentation --- does not paralle

这样解释看能否帮助LZ理解：

我们现在讨论的代词主要是：指示代词（如she）、物主代词（如her）。

这两类代词在句子中所充当的成分不同，指示代词在句中作主语或宾语，而物主代词在句中是作定语的。

所以，指“代词无法指代所有格”这一规则更严格一点来说，应该是指示代词无法指代所有格，因为所有格在句中也是作定语的，不同的功能，无法替代。

该题中的her与所有格都是作定语，所以可以指代。（其实这样的例子比比皆是，只是我们没有去分析）

一家之言。

祝LZ取得好成绩！

发现破解版的prep sc1里面的这道题目答案是A,不是D

大家好好重新看看这个题目的答案

首先看到一个In addition to ，分词短语开始的句子的话， 他的逻辑主语为该句子的主语

Mary Leakey 肯定不能in addtion to her work，人和工作不能相加，这样逻辑意思不合理

那么主语应该是一个跟work性质相同的词，所以应该是In addtion to her work, ML's contribution

那么答案在D，E之中的一个

E中的her discovering啰嗦，在GMAT中，如果一个词有名词形式就不要用 ing形式

变形题：In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology through her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and through her painstaking documentation of East African cave paintings.

A. Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology through her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and through her painstaking documentation of

B. Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting

C. Mary Leakey was a contributor to archaeology by discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of

D. Mary Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting

E. Mary Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of

A: correct

B: her discovery和painstakingly documenting不平行

C: by discovering和with her painstaking documentation不平行；contributor改变原文意思；

D: her discovery和painstakingly documenting不平行

E: discovering和painstaking documentation不平行

注意：in addition to A, B … A和B不一定是同一类事物

大家不觉得 painstaking documentation 这个修饰很有问题嘛

怎么解释呢？？？
