for doing是否一定错,大家借此道GWD题来讨论一下吧

Responding to the public’s fascination with-and sometimes
undue alarm over-possible threats from asteroids, a scale
developed by astronomers rates the likelihood that a particular
asteroid or comet may collide with Earth.

A.astronomers have developed a scale for rating the
likelihood that a particular asteroid or comet will

B.astronomers have developed a scale to rate how likely
a particular asteroid or comet will be to

这两个选项各位选哪一个

A.

A: "rating the likelihood" - sounds better than "rate how likely"
B: will = be to

这道题应该选B。 B后面其实应该这么理解的 How likely it will be (to collide the earth). how likely it will be 这种用法是正确的

A错在哪里,难道GMAT有规定for doing就是错了?
likelihood不是明显简洁过那个从句么,同时也没有歧意么?

for doing这种用法感觉很别扭，而且好像GMAT里这种用法全都认为是错的。 how likely it will be 是挺常见的一种说法。

pychina · 发表于 2007-12-26 01:34:00

OG里好象没有明确的规定过吧,关键这里有明确的名词likelihood应该优先于how likely吧

来个NN解释下吧

我的意見：

astronomers have developed a scale for rating....是a scale for rating還是for rating...,astronomer have developed a scale並不清楚，我認為用for會有兩種解釋的情況產生,

這可能是GMAC不喜歡用for的原因，如果用to,則清楚表示一個目的，表示astronomer發明xxx以便去作xxx.

另外，N+that的用法應該不如直接講清楚來的好，雖然N+that常常是正確選項，但是這是在跟which

的選項比較之下而得，所以我認為應該選B
