OG紫皮语法19题和22题,大家讨论一下吧(附OG上的解释)

19. While depressed property values can hurt some large investors，they are potentially devastating for homeowners, whose equity-in many cases representing a life’s savings-can plunge or even disappear.

(A)  they are potentially devastating for homeowners，whose

(B)  they can potentially devastate homeowners in that their

(C)  for homeowners they are potentially devastating，because their

(D)  for homeowners，it is potentially devastating in that their

(E)  it can potentially devastate homeowners，whose

Rhetorical construction +Agreement

This sentence is correct and concise．They clearly refers to property values，and whose refers to homeowners．

A  Correct．The relationship between nouns and pronouns is correct in this sentence；the

 expression is concise and clear．

B  Can potentially is redundant；in that there is wordy, awkward，and ambiguous．

C  Their appears to refer to they(property values) rather than to homeowners．

D  It does not agree with property values；in that their is wordy and awkward．

E  It does not agree with property values；can potentially is redundant．

The correct answer is A．

我错选了B,难道can和potentially重复了吗？不觉得重复啊．

in that是because的意思也没有错啊，除非in that不能用在书面语中？

如果说their可能会被认为指代不清的话，题干while values can hurt investeros,they...里的they也有对应的两个复数名词啊

总之，不懂了，向牛牛们请教

The sentence gives two reasons that cattle breeders use crossbreeding；these reasons should be introduced in parallel ways with the word partly．The infinitive to acquire clearly and concisely conveys the purpose of the crossbreeding．

A  In part should be partly；use of relative clause is ungrammatical．

B  In part should be partly；wordy and awkward use of prepositional phrases．

C  Because of suggests that crossbreeding has occurred because the steers have already acquired certain characteristics．

D  Passive voice should be acquired by is awkward and illogical．

E  Correct．In this sentence，the word partly is used to introduce both reasons；the phrase to acquire certain characteristics is clear and concise．

The correct answer is E．

我错选了Ｄ，是因为我觉得并列句连接的两个分句结构应该相似，难道是因为主动时态原则要比结构一致原则优先考虑吗？

我记得OG里面有一道题的解释说过in that,说的是现在基本上不用这个词组

Can potentially 是觉得有不对,can表示能够,potentially又表示有可能,有点重复吧

22.题我当时也做错了,不知道怎么解释哈

啊,不好意思,刚才多点了刷新就连续回了两次

删掉删掉~~~

如果原句中没有出现can、could等情态动词，那选项中也尽量不要有。

这么说不知道对不对，请nn指正，谢谢！

22题acquire certain characteristics的动作发出者应该是cattle breeders而不应该是steers,所以D错.另外,partly to acqire...and partly because...是two reasons,如果一定要用because,D应改为:

partly because they want to acquire certain characteristics in their steers and partly because...

请nn指正!

TONYADIDAS的语法总结上说CAN POTENTIALLY是冗语，但“CAN,POTENTIALLY，”是对的，前一个我遇到过几次，后一个好像就一次。。

IN THAT表示因为，是指某物有“特点”是因为什么，来自LZM语法，IN THAT考过有真题，2，3道吧，作为正确答案出现的，是这个意思。不过注意IN THAT不修饰名词～～～

我想D选项中的THEIR是多余的吧，不知道对不对。。。

in that 问题，我专门查下OG11的51题。In that is a conjunction that means inasmuch as; because in that has largely gone out of use, it is considered stilted and overly formal.

真题能不能上传，对比一下啊~~
