3. Although various eighteenth- and nineteenth-century American poets had professed an interest in Native American poetry and had pretended to imitate Native American forms in their own works, until almost 1900. scholars and critics did not begin seriously to study traditional Native American poetry in native languages.

(A) until almost 1900, scholars and critics did not begin seriously to study

(B) until almost 1900 scholars and critics had not begun seriously studying

(0not until almost 1900 were scholars and critics to begin seriously to study

(D) it was not almost until 1900 when scholars and critics began to seriously study

(E) it was not until almost 1900 that scholars and critics seriously began studying

答案选E
AB C 已经明白
OG解释

C The sequence of infinitives (to begin seriously to study) is awkward and wordy.

D Not almost until is a nonsensical sequence of modifiers.

D:Not almost until是modify谁呀？

记得好像高中讲过not until的句型查了一下
1. 一般式：not 与until分开，until放在句子的后面。例如：He did not go until midnight. （他直到午夜才走。）
2. 倒装式：not until 连在一起使用，且放在句首，整个句子要倒装。例如：Not until quite recently did I have any idea what a guided missile was like.(直到现在我才知道导弹是什么样子。)
3. 强调式：用于It is + not until +that ...的句型中。例如：It was not until the next day that I learned the truth.(到第二天我才听说事情的真相。)

不知在GMAT中是否还适用
那
C：如果不是be to do 改成
not until almost 1900 did scholars and critics begin seriously to study
是否正确呢？

我觉得C选项not until almost 1900 were scholars and critics to begin seriously to study看做倒装滴话，正过来就是 scholars and critics were not to begin seriously to study not until almost 1900.这就有问题叻嘛~~~

然后题目应该是强调那些兄弟姐妹们开始研究叻不是强调时间not until 1900

哦 D中强调了when 也就是说何时开始研究原意是开始研究~
恩这个明白了~~

请问A选项的具体的语法错误是什么呢？还有这里的begin studying 和begin to study有什么区别吗？

你看这个until almost 1900既可以是之前American poets had professed 。。and had pretended。。的时间状语，也可以是scholars and critics did not begin 。。。的时间状语

OG解释里没有说这两者的区别就当它没有错。。也许一样的？好像没有碰到过说有区别的题
有人见到过吗~~

谢谢lonelyboat, 我明白啦~

一直觉得这题很纠结，要不是你列出那三种not unitl的用法，我还一直在苦想着是不是像B选项那样的也是not until的一种倒装用法呢，
而且要不是看你解释A，我也一直没看出这点。太感谢了！

但这道题实在是太纠结我了，我还想问：

1. E选项强调句不是依然强调的是时间not until almost 1900么？
因为强调句中强调的部分不就是It is···that 之间的部分么？

2.D选项错误，我以为除了强调句中不能用when代替that，还有就是只能把almost放在1900前面，不能放在until前面，不然就不是修饰的1900，而是修饰的until了（虽然中文意思没什么差别）。是这样么？

3.跟第2个问题类似，begin seriously to study 和seriously begin studying可以互换么？（这个seriously的位置与它修饰的对象）

还是没有明白C的不定式的顺序哪里错了。
OG上说to begin seriously to study是awkward.

求解释C> <
