OG107

Downzoning, zoning that typically results in the reduction of housing density,
allows for more open space in areas where little water or services exist.
(A) little water or services exist
(B) little water or services exists
(C) few services and little water exists
(D) there is little water or services available
(E) there are few services and little available water

选E。

OG有一点解释是Since water and services are being discussed as a pair, they should
logically be treated as a compound suject requiring a plural verb; thus, the
singular verbs "exists" (in B and C) and "is" (in D) are wrong.

想问一下,在There be A and B 句型中,谓语的单负不是和A一致吗?假如D选项说:there is little availble water and few services,那算对算错?OG的意思好像是There be A and B 句型中谓语都用复数,和从小学的东西不太一样啊?~~~疑惑中~~~~

1,在there be a and b 句型中,谓语的单负不是和a一致吗?---> more exactly, should be aligned with the closer one
2, 假如d选项说:there is little availble water and few services,那算对算错?---> it's right, i think
3, og的意思好像是there be a and b 句型中谓语都用复数,和从小学的东西不太一样啊?~~~疑惑中~~~~----> confused, it needs to be clarified

disagree, "a and b" alsways need a plural form

可是这是在there be句型中啊~~
there be句型的谓语不是应该和离得最近的名词保持一致吗~~
难道这个语法规则在GMAT中也不成立?!

同意鸭鸭和海蓝,there be 句型,be 动词应该是就近原则,这是属于语法的特殊情况
这道题目我想主要是考little 的不能用来修饰可数名词吧.
至于a and b 谓语用复数应该是指的正常语序的情况下吧
譬如这道题目,如果C改为few services and little water exist,从语法上来说应该是正确的

另外a or b句型,按照语法规则也是就近原则,谓语动词的形式由b决定.
那这道题目,如果A或B改为 little water or few services exist,语法上也正确呢?

1.adj. N1 and/or N2  里的形容词怎样区分是修饰N1 还是修饰N1 and N2呢?

2.题中ETS解释,ABD错的原因是little 不能修饰services

  为什么不能看成是little water 或(or)services 的并列呢?还是因为如果看成是little water 或(or)services 的并列,改变了原意,没有表达出“几乎没有services”这个含义呢?

目前的两个问题:

1,谓语动词问题:以前的理解和Snazzy版主一样:,在there be a and b 句型中,谓语的单负不是和a一致吗?---> more exactly, should be aligned with the closer one

目前的疑惑:

http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&ID=17766

remeo:当2个并列成分用or连接时,谓语动词与后面的一致,类似的有as well as ,either ...or...等本题中的services不就是复数吗?
而and后面的用复数形式的谓语动词,即使他连接2个不可数的成分。

如果你这方面还有不熟悉的,可先记熟一些固定搭配该如何用正确的动词上的“数”来表达。

2,and 和or

  题中ETS解释,ABD错的原因是little 不能修饰services

个人理解:A如果是:little water or few services则应该是对的了

总结一下就是and/or前后如果是可数和不可数名词,修饰词应该分开

比如:我们不能说a few apples and water,应该说a few apples and a little water

所以雪落无声:adj. N1 and/or N2  里的形容词怎样区分是修饰N1 还是修饰N1 and N2呢?就可以解释了。
