1.His studies of ice-polished rocks in his Alpine homeland, far outside the range of present-day glaciers, led Louis Agassiz in 1837 to propose the concept of an age in which great ice sheets had existed in now currently temperate areas.
(A) in which great ice sheets had existed in now currently temperate areas
(B) in which great ice sheets existed in what are now temperate areas
(C) when great ice sheets existed where there were areas now temperate
(D) when great ice sheets had existed in current temperate areas
(E) when great ice sheets existed in areas now that are temperate

第一步：划线部分在末尾，考虑指代和细节问题
第二步：句子结构是 his studies led louis  to propose  the concept；前面主句时态是 led，一般过去时；这种studies 说明的内容，一般从句时态和主句一致，排D
第三步：A now currently 重复，排除
第四步：C where 后跟随there were ，wordy，排除，同时existed 后应该跟iin
第五步：now的位置有变化，排除
总结：1）不难发现，时态是一个考点，studies 类的时态，主句和从句没有关联性
      2）AB是形容词罩，CDE是副词罩；此题不适合于庆爷的技巧的原因是，结构中强调的是concept，而不是age ，所以age的修饰方式越低调越好，
            否则会降低对主体结构的重心转移。
      3）注意体会原句中now的位置和修饰对象。

2.Combining enormous physical strength with higher intelligence, the Neanderthals appear as equipped for facing any obstacle the environment could out in their path, but their relatively sudden disappearance during the Paleolithic era indicates that an inability to adapt to some environmental change led to their extinction.
(A) appear as equipped for facing any obstacle the environment could put in their path,
(B) appear to have been equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their path,
(C) appear as equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their paths,
(D) appeared as equipped to face any obstacle the environment could put in their paths,
(E) appeared to have been equipped for facing any obstacle the environment could put in their path,

第一步：划线部分在中间，考察细节，看前后
第二步：看到but，找对应，看到了indicates，看到了前面是appear to do ，只有B
总结：1）for doing和 to do 之间选择，留 to do，这样就可以排除AE，然后时态选择appear就留下 BC, 比较 appear as+N，排C
Manhattan中关于appear的习语用法：
RIGHT：Imperfactions APPEAR AS tiny cracks（=show up as）
   He APPEARS CONFUSED.（=seems）
   The dinosaurs APPEAR TO HAVE BEEN relatively smart.
   It APPEARS THAT the dinosaurs WERE smart.

3)A 1972 agreement between Canada and the United States reduced the amount of phosphates that municipalities had been allowed to dump into the Great Lakes.

(B) reduced the phosphate amount that municipalities had been dumping
(C) reduces the phosphate amount municipalities have been allowed to dump
(D) reduced the amount of phosphates that municipalities are allowed to dump
(E) reduces the amount of phosphates allowed for dumping by municipalities

第一步：划线部分在中间，考虑细节，前后
第二步：观察选项开头，时态 1972  选择reduced，排E
第三步：the amount of，修饰，排BC
第四步：AD选从句时态，排A 留D

4) A proposal has been made to trim the horns from rhinoceroses to discourage poachers; the question is whether tourists will continue to visit game parks and see rhinoceroses after their horns are trimmed.
(A) whether tourists will continue to visit game parks and see rhinoceroses after their horns are
(B) whether tourists will continue to visit game parks to see one once their horns are
(C) whether tourists will continue to visit game parks to see rhinoceroses once the animals' horns have been
(D) if tourists will continue to visit game parks and see rhinoceroses once the animals' horns are
(E) if tourists will continue to visit game parks to see one after the animals' horns have been

第一步：划线部分在中间，考察细节，前后
第二步：One ，指代不清，BE
第三步：If 没有这样的用法，排D
第四步：whether没有和and的用法，排A,  剩下C
总结，这里有and 的用法，and连接的前后应该没有逻辑递进关系，一旦有递进的话使用to 这样排除AD
he present perfect tense is needed here.
One use of the present perfect is to express a future action that will be completed before another future action.（manhattan中的chapter 7中的present perfect的minor use有讲过）

5) Salt deposits and moisture threaten to destroy the Mohenjo-Daro excavation in Pakistan, the site of an ancient civilization that flourished at the same time as the civilizations in the Nile Delta and the river valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates.
(A) that flourished at the same time as the civilizations
(B) that had flourished at the same time as had the civilizations
(C) that flourished at the same time those had
(D) flourishing at the same time as those did
(E) flourishing at the same time as those were

第一步：划线部分在中间，考虑细节问题
第二步：主语是 salt deposits and moisture，the site 修饰 pakistan
第三步：those 指代不清，排CDE
第四步：比较是名词对名词，排B，留A
总结：前后时态是一致的，仔细体会。
