几题kaplan做错的题目讨论－（续）

1． Those who have visited the Grand Canyon have typically (seen layers of sediment in gaping canyon, with different colors that mark) the passage of the time like the rings in a tree trunk.

D. been able to see layers of sediment in gaping canyon, with different colors marking

E  seen layers of sediment in gaping canyon, marking by different colors

答案是E，我选了D，能否解释一下？？

2  The network determined that ( 17 commercials should be shown during a half-hour sitcom), while a one hour drama can be expected to contain 29.

A,

B, In a half-hour sitcom 17 commercials will be shown

C, In a half-hour sitcom 17 commercials should be shown

D, 17 commercials should  be shown in a half-hour sitcom

E, 17 commercials will  be shown by a half-hour sitcom

请大家讨论答案， 顺便问一下， 什么时候宾语从句后面从句的时态可以和主句不一致，谢谢

3，For decades, Surgeon Generals have warned that smoking increases the risk of lung diseases, including lung cancer and emphysema, and (can complicate pregnancy , and increases the risk of low birth weight)

C, can complicate pregnancy, increasing the risk of low birth weight

D, can complicate pregnancy by increasing the risk of low birth weight

C and D 的区别是C是伴随状语，表结果， D是表原因， 似乎都可以说通，大家选哪个那？

4， Constructed with the finest marble, the floor of the church is its greatest ( attraction and is more attractive to tourists than are its ornate stained glass windows)

Aattraction and is more attractive to tourists than are its ornate stained glass windows

B attraction, itself more attractive to tourists than are its ornate stained glass windows

请问A,B 选哪个那？

5， 请问population 是用  as many as half the population 修饰， 还是 as much as half the population 修饰，，集合名词是否都用 much 修饰， 谢谢拉，

能否解答一下，，自己先ding一下。

Jnlvo 能解释一下嘛？

第一题我怎么记得答案是A，大全中给的是D，当时有人引用了kaplan的原文注解，清楚地说明答案是A。可现在居然又是E了。kaplan的可信度确实不高，难怪很多人kaplan模考的不怎样，真考却还不错。

我选2, E, 3 C  4 A

to jnlvo

你和我开始的想法一样， 但是答案是

1   A ， 不好意思是我搞错了。 That mark 优于marking, 表明的是一种状态而不是动作本身。  

2， B- - 后来想想确实感觉B好， 对于E，因为sitcom 不是commercial的施动者呀，所以不成立，应该选主动态的B。对于用will 而不是should，我觉得是因为determine已经决定了这是一种惯例了，用should显然意思不通。

3,   D-  对于C和D ， 我只能用平行的概念来解释了， 如果选C，用了伴随状语， 有歧异，不知道是修饰整句句子还是complicate pregnancy 的， 所以用by做状语解决了这个问题。

4,   B- 为什么选B我还是想不通，，，

5， 同意much

继续讨论欧！

第2题你说的是对的，我当时只是从平行角度选的E，从意思的表达应该B好。

第3题我从意思上判断是似乎C好些，不过答案是D，一方面有你说的原因，还有另一个可能原因是can.......，doing....这个结构本身就是错的。以前也遇到过，这种结构作为错误选项，不过没有见过详细的说明，不能完全肯定这种想法的正确性。

第4题，B让人一看感觉很简洁，不过当时我觉得itself指代有问题，现在再看itself应该指the church ，与后面的its相同。相比的是church和windows，而不是floor和windows，否则有意思重复之嫌。这点确实当时没有考虑到。

你做题后应该能看到kaplan的注释，不知它是如何解的。不过我感觉kaplan的解释跟og比就显得很毛糙。
