PREP39 关于平行逻辑

39。

错选C应选E

 The Sports Medicine Programs of the Olympic Training Center, a complex where final tryouts are held for athletes representing the United States in the Olympics, is geared toward enhancing athletes' performance and toward their preparation for international competition.

(A) is geared toward enhancing athletes' performance and toward their preparation

(B) is geared to enhance the performance of athletes and to prepare them

(C) are geared to enhance athletes' performance and their preparation

(D) are geared toward the enhancement of athletes' performance and toward preparing them

(E) are geared toward enhancing the performance of athletes and preparing them

【考点】主动词一致（Consistency）
        平衡对称（Parallelism）
            

1) 惯用语: gear: verb。 (usually passive。)if someone or sth is geared to (+noun.)or towards a particular purpose， they are organized or designed in order to achieve that purpose。对某事物加以调节以适合某种需要或达到某种水平或标准
            

2) 专有名词的复数: 专有名词的复数跟普通单词一样，在词尾添加s表示复数概念
            

(A) toward enhancing和toward their preparation不平衡；
        主动词不一致，is应该改为复数
            

(B) 主动词不一致
            

(C) to enhance和their preparation不平衡，and their preparation错误地与athletes’ performance平行。
            

(D) the enhancement和preparing them不平衡
            

(E) 正确， are geared toward enhancing…and preparing结构平衡且符合习惯用法
        

我的问题是，C 选项，即使their preparation与athletes’ performance平行； 感觉也不会引起逻辑错误啊？

求教牛牛

顶一下，请牛牛们看看

谢谢版主，但文中A选项的意思似乎和c表达的逻辑意思更接近些，虽然两个选项的逻辑意思不同，但放在这里都说的通，为何取E选项，不取C选项的逻辑意思呢？

继续求教！

C 中 enhance
            athletes' performance and their preparation
            for international competition
            

E  中 enhancing the performance of athletes and preparing them for international competition
        

C E逻辑意思不一样  是两个动词的并列 并且有先后逻辑关系，E 中的for 是 prepare for短语

不知道我的理解是否正确？

我觉得只能用语法的倾向来判定

用动词表达与名词表达含意是不同的

且G魔 倾向前者

有时a项的表达方式不一定就是最好的

有更好的出现当然就选更好的

答案是比较出来的

E 中enhancing and preparing 是平行并列，

C中逻辑意思就模糊了。。。

谢谢版主，总算清楚了！
