GWD-9-Q27:
定语从句并列,而且定语从句修饰的成分在从句中做主语,所以从句中如果再出现主语那就是错误的...

GWD-9-Q17:
应该是E吧,感觉哪里看到过...
A. with作为伴随解释,with states opening感觉有点奇怪. huge形容对象有点模糊,是形容市场还是形容网络.
E. as引导时间吧, 当国家开放utlity市场参与竞争的时候,整合用来建立一个拓展xxx市场的网络. a huge network for marketing utility,意思比较清楚.

个人感觉,请nn来解释

这是manhattan里的解释

there are a couple of things wrong with (a):
* "leading gas and electric company" is wrong; if you read this literally (which is the only way that you should ever read it), then it implies rather clearly (and wrongly) that we're talking about one company, which handles both gas and electric.
(we know this is wrong because the problem is about a merger. one company can't have a merger by itself.)
there are two ways to fix this. first, there's the way it's fixed in (e), which is a bit clumsy/wordy but is the most precise fix. second, you could write "leading gas and electric companies", which is more compact but sacrifices a bit of meaning (i.e., in that construction you can't tell whether there are just 2 companies, as you can in (e)).
* "with states opening..." is incorrect. when you have an -ING WITHOUT COMMA modifier, like this one, it's a RESTRICTIVE ("essential") modifier. this means that we're only talking about those states that are "opening their utility markets to competition", the implication being that only some states are doing so. the intended meaning is better conveyed by "as states open..."

(e) doesn't have this problem.

感觉到一点，gmat各个部分非常重要的还是理解逻辑

楼上manhattan那个我也看了，我觉得他说的挺对的，不过在我们都不知道merger的本意的时候确实不太好区分A和E选项。

GWD-9-Q27:

if 后面的是虚拟语气，要用过去时态，E中的is明显不对了。

ccfish9 · 发表于 2011-10-18 10:08:54

A的问题在于gas and electric company表示同一家公司没办法合并，但是我对E的for marketing the utilities 有疑问，在GMAT中for doing表目的不是绝对禁止的么？

谁回答我下，谢谢！

manhattan的解释很有说服力，因为 "with states opening..." 前面没有逗号，句子的意思就变成只是指那些 "opening their utility markets to competition" 的states, 意思不对
