第一题，不清楚，我觉得和省略的内容有关。第二题是比较简单的平行结构，a lowering 最明显的平行是 a weakening ，这个是最基本的考点，一定要练得立马能看出来。第三题，read作系动词用，like后面跟名词。

A by persuading people to eat what had previously been horse feed, market equilibrium was restored.
-- persuade的逻辑主语不可以是market equilibrium

B persuading people to eat what had previously been horse feed restored market equilibrium.
--动名词做主语，正确

C by persuading people to eat what had previously bee horse feed restored market equilibrium.
--介词结构不能做主语

D the persuation of people to eat what had previously been horse feed restored market equilibrium.
--“the persuasion of sb to do sth” is wordy and awkward

E market equilibrium was restored when people were pursuaded to eat former horse feed.
--“former” is not correct. “people were pursuaded to eat former horse feed“also has logic error. 而且在选项中优先选择主动句

此题正确答案为B

2.One view of the economy contendsn that a large drop in oil prices should eventually lead to lowering interest rates,as well as lowering fears about inflation,a rally in stocks and bonds,and a weakening of the dollars.

A lowering interest rates, as well as lowering fears about inflation,
--parallelism problem

B a lowering of interest rates and of fears about inflation,
--2 parallel structures are used in this sentence, which make the sentence more precise
a lowering of A and of B
lead to A,B and C

C a lowering of interst rates along with fears about inflation,
-- parallelism problem

D interest rates being lowered,along with fears about inflation
--parallelism problem, “being done” is wordy and awkward

E interest rates and fears about inflation being lowered,with
--grammatical and logical error

这题我选的是C，正解是B

3. Originally pulished in 1959,XX was XY's first novel, but it does not read like an apprentic work.

A 原句
--idiom, read like
B seems not to read as apprentice work
-- “read like” is idiom

C does not seem to read as an apprentice work would
-“read like” is idiom

D does not read like an apprentice work does
-“like” cannot work as a conjunction

E read unlike an apprentice work
--wrong tense, read unlike also wrong

此题正解为A

谢谢这么详细的解答！第一题，关于逻辑主语，我还是比较迷惑的，一般要怎么去看呢? 还有就是在这一题里，" what had previously been horse feed restored market equilibrium" 这句话到底是什么意思呢~我读着觉得听别扭的~还请同学指教！

一般情况下,在主句的某一从属成分中，出现动词(一般以动名词,现在分词,过去分词的形式出现)但未出现发出该动作的主体，此时就要考虑发出该动作的逻辑主语是否就是主句中的实际主语,不一致就是错.
例如:
by persuading people to eat what had previously been horse feed, market equilibrium was restored
by persuading people to eat what had previously been horse feed是介词结构作主句的方式壮语,by 后面的persuading是动名词,此时就要考虑persuade的逻辑主语,显然不是market,所以就跟主句中的主语market出现不一致. 而英语语法要求这两者必须一致.
这是个很简单的语法点,但GMAT还考得挺多.

persuading people to eat what had previously been horse feed restored market equilibrium
通过说服人们去吃那些先前是马粮的农作物可以重新使市场达到均衡
整个题干的意思大致是说一个主流观点认为,由于越来越多的人买车导致马匹数量急剧减少,因而那些喂马的农作物就过剩了, 这样, 通过说服人们去吃那些先前是马粮的农作物可以重新使市场达到均衡
