请问og50

50. As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it would be rated about 20/500. or legally blind if it were an adult with such vision.



(A)  As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind if it were an adult with such vision.



(B)  A baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision that would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind as an adult



(C)  As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb, its rudimentary sense of vision would be rated about 20/500; qualifying it to be legally blind if an adult


(D)  A baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision that would be rated about 20/500; an adult with such vision would be deemed legally blind.



(E)   As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb, its rudimentary sense of vision, which would deemed legally blind for an adult, would be rated about 20/500.



In choice A, it, the subject of the main clause, seems to refer to baby, the subject of the subordinate clause; thus, A seems to state that the newbom baby, rather than its sense of vision, would be rated 20/500[t1] . Similarly, choices B and E use awkward and ambiguous phrasing that suggests that the sense of vision, rather than an adult with 20/500 vision, would be considered legally blind. C incorrectly uses the semicolon, which should separate independent clauses, to set off a verb phrase. The phrase if an adult in C is also illogical, since it states that a baby could also be an adult. D is the best choice.








请问划线部分的解释该如何理解,为什么说if adult有“婴儿可能是大人”的歧义

qualifying it to be legally blind if an adult

OG是先说这不是个完整的句子,然后暗示说,就是对也等于:

qualifying it to be legally blind if (it is) an adult.   (if后只能省it is,因为to be legally blind的逻辑主语是it)

如果你同意我上面的分析的话,it指代the baby,就变成if the baby is adult了。

仍然疑惑````

为什么if 后面不是省略的一个虚拟语态it were呢? 如果是这样省略不也很想得通么?

求赐教

不通: qualifying it to be legally blind if (it were) an adult  --> ....如果it(baby)是adult

我也有这个疑问。

但是,从代词指代应该没有歧义的角度上看。前面的那个it有可能被认为指代senses是把。

这样就产生了歧义了。

而且,c关键错在‘;’后不是个句子。

而且,gmat里我见得较少看这种情况下,考察虚拟语气的。

但是,还是想请那位大n给吓个结论。
