语法书上有写,绝不单独使用this,these来指代前面出现过的名词,而应通过换用其他代词 如 such...或重复前面的名词来取代。可是旧prep2的34题

Besides adding complementary flavors to many foods, hot sauces stimulate the release of endorphins in the brain, just as exercise does, and these have a pain-relieving effect like morphine's.

A选项是对的,却单独用了these来指代sauces.      

这是怎么回事呢?不过好像大多数题目确实都不能单独用this  these来指代呢。。。

再顺带问问nn们,从句是可以做主语的,比如that从句等,但because 引导的状语从句不能做主语吗?

刘振民的那本书确实很多错误。
其实指代清晰了,就可以指代。具体的,可以专门挑指代的题目出来看,来体会什么是指代清晰。

但because 引导的状语从句不能做主语吗

just/only because是可以引导名词性从句的,但是这是口语表达,GMAT里面貌似并不接受,因为曾有一个prep语法题的E选项被排除的原因之一是用了这个口语化表达。所以because引导的从句在GMAT里面不能做主语。

(A) a smaller commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents

(B) less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents

(C) a smaller commitment to work and a career than that of their parents and grandparents

(D) less of a commitment to work and a career than their parents and grandparents had

(E) a lessening of the commitment to work and a career that their parents and grandparents had  

选D。我明白这是两个句子在比较,但前面的have是实意动词吧,grandparents后面不应该用did来补充吗?因为不能用have补,否则就成了现在完成时的标志,而前面的have是实意动词。若用had来补充,说明had是助动词,补全的话是had had,而实意动词had省略了,也就是说后面这部分用的是过去完成时?是这样吗?

对,同意你的解释。LZM中提倡尽量补全than后的动词,而且前后动词时态可能不同。
