几个争论颇大的语法题的权威解释--其他和结语

1和2是两个小只是点，我对这两个解释持保留态度，因为这个老师毕竟不是ETS的，谨作参考。3是一点心得，与大家分享

1. With regard to the word 'capability,' it can be used with several different prepositions depending upon the context, but the prepositon that always goes with 'capable' is 'of.' Ex. I am capable of getting good grades in school.

2. With regard to conjunctions like 'which,' they cannot modify a whole sentence, but they can modify a clause. Ex. After eating too much spaghetti, which is something I often do, I felt sick.

3 GWD-24-20

According to a 1996 survey by the National Association of College an University Business Officers, more than three times as many independent institutions of higher education charge tuition and fees of under $8,000 a year than those that charge over $16,000.

A) than those that charge

B) than are charging

C) than to charge

D) as charge

老师的解释：I would choose A (than those that charge). The sentence would read "More than 3 times as many institutions charge tuition of under $8 than those that charge over $16.  arallel structure is the issue. More this than that.

我相信每个复习GMAT的人都会对这个解释“嗤之以鼻”，但这确实就是一个native speaker说的，并且她还是语言学博士。

我在这里举这个例子仅仅是想告诉还在复习的xkjm，GMAT语法中的确是有一些原本就错的题目或很诡异的问题，请你们千万不要钻牛角尖，在这上面浪费太多时间。

关键是把握ETS的感觉，一两道题不是考试的障碍，重要是感觉。

更重要的是，复习中要对自己有信心，你看连老美都做错，就是说你出现错误也正常，而且这决不说明你的英语水平比谁差，只是对ETS还不够熟悉。只要你复习的时间和强度足够，就一定会产生质的飞跃。

加油！
