Day48
1.(71)Turn-of-the-centurymagician Harry Houdini claimed, for hisfamous water-torture cell trick, the ability to hold his breath for more than three minutes.

A. for his famouswater-torture cell trick, the ability to hold his breath
B. for his famouswater-torture cell trick, he has the ability to hold his breath
C. for his famouswater-torture cell trick, the ability of him holding his breath
D. for his famous water-torture cell trick, to be able tohold his breath
E. for his famous water-torture cell trick, being able tohold his breath

D错选E，本来想着to do可能是要做啥，但没想到是固定搭配。

2.(72)In contrast to the declarations made at previous UN climatechange conferences, the third Conference of the Parties' Kyoto Protocol createdlegally binding obligations as a result of intensive negotiations among bothdeveloped and developing nations.

A. In contrast to the declarations made at previous UN climatechange conferences, the third Conference of the Parties' Kyoto Protocol createdlegally binding obligations as a result of intensive negotiations among bothdeveloped and developing nations.
B. In contrast to the declarations made atprevious UN climate change conferences, the third Conference of the Parties hadintensive negotiations among both developed and developing nations, creatinglegally binding obligations in their Kyoto Protocol.
C. When compared with the declarations made atprevious UN climate change conferences, the third Conference of the Parties hadintensive negotiations among both developed and developing nations creatinglegally binding obligations in the Kyoto Protocol.
D. Compared with the declarations made atprevious UN climate change conferences, the third Conference of the Parties hadintensive negotiations among both developed and developing nations creatinglegally binding obligations in the Kyoto Protocol.
E.Compared to the declarations made at previous UN climate change conferences,the intensive third Conference of the Parties' negotiations among bothdeveloped and developing nations led to the creating of the Kyoto Protocol'slegally binding obligations.

A错选E,就没想到KyotoProtocol是declaration…所以才选了E，原本思路是Kyoto Protocol是一个政策或者协议，和declaration（声明/宣告）是两个东西。E本来也有不好的地方，比如creating和后面的比较awkward，那declaration和精度协议是同一回事儿，就肯定选A。

3.(73)Last year,both groups of scientists found that the glaciers in western Greenland had retreated far enough to set off an inherentinstability in the ice sheet, one that experts have feared for decades.

(A) had retreated far enough to set off an inherentinstability in the ice sheet, one that experts have feared for decades

(B) had retreatedso far that it set off an inherent instability in the ice sheet, and it is onethat experts for decades have feared

(C) had retreatedso far that they set off an inherent instability in the ice sheet, one thatexperts for decades hasfeared

(D) have retreatedfar enough to set off an inherent instability in the ice sheet, one thatexperts feared for decades

(E) have retreatedso far that they set off an inherent instability in the ice sheet, one fearedby experts for decades

A

4.(74)As theinformation technology field matures, programmers specializingin particular niches like those of web design and application development havebeen becoming increasingly marketable tofirms that currently outsource projects to boutique contractors.

(A) specializing inparticular niches like those of web design and application development havebeen becoming increasingly

(B) who specialize in such particular niches as web design andapplication development are becoming more and more

(C) who specializedin particular niches such as those of web design and application developmentare being increasingly

(D) who specializein particular niches like those of web design and application development havebeen becoming more and more

(E) havingspecialized in such particular niches as web design and application developmentare being increasingly

B

5.(75)The FederalReserve bond buyback program has buoyed Wall Street, and helped the stock market reach record highs, but yet totranslate into consistent job growth across the country.

(A) and helped thestock market reach record highs, but yet to translate into consistent jobgrowth across the country

(B) helped thestock market reach record highs, but it has yet to translate into consistentjob growth across the country

(C) helped thestock market reach record highs, and has not translated into consistent jobgrowth across the country

(D) and helped the stock market reach record highs, but ithas yet to translate into consistent job growth across the country

(E) and helped the stock market reach record highs, but hasnot translated into consistent job growth across the country

D错选E。E says: The Fed program hasbuoyed X, and helped Y reach record highs, but has not translated into Z.....What has not been translated? The Fed Program or Y (the stock market). E mayconvey a different meaning: the Fed Program helped the stock market reachrecord highs, but has not translated the stock market into consistent jobgrowth.... Thus, the meaning is quite ambiguous. We need "it" torefer "the Fed program".

6.(76)Although limited in their usefulness thus far, the companyboard’s several entrepreneurs believe thatwhat the two programmers have developed is the start of something veryimportant.

(A) Althoughlimited in their usefulness thus far, the company board’s several entrepreneurs

(B) Based on thelimited usefulness thus far, several of the entrepreneurs on the company board

(C) With thelimited usefulness thus far, several of the entrepreneurs on the company board

(D) Despite the limited usefulness thus far, the severalentrepreneurs on the company board

(E) While limitedin usefulness thus far, the several entrepreneurs on the company board
D

7.(77)The reams ofstudies and drafts documented by Gustave Eiffel indicate that the design of theEiffel Tower generally emergednot in a rapid manner but developed painstakingly from multipletrial prototypes.

(A) emerged not ina rapid manner but developed painstakingly
(B) emerged not ina rapid manner but was painstakingly developed
(C) did not emerge in a rapid manner but developedpainstakingly
(D) did not emergein a rapid manner but had painstakingly developed
(E) did not emerge in a rapid manner but it was painstakinglydeveloped

C错选E，主要错在以为需要被动上，这里不需要被动，最初考虑的是design不应该是wasdeveloped from那些prototypes吗，而且什么时候不需要被动，什么时候需要？

见下方：

Consider the following sentences:

(1) John broke the window.

(2) The window broke.

Either is okay, and we don'tthink that the window broke anything in the latter case. The relevant part ofthe item in question could read:

(1) Gustave Eiffel developed thedesign.

(2) The design developed.

8.(78)AlthoughBelize borders Guatemala and Mexico, countries in which tortillas are servedwith nearly every dish, Belizeanstypically eat their meals with rice, and tortillas are rare.

(A) Belizeans typically eat their meals with rice, andtortillas are rare
(B) Belizeanstypically eat its meals with rice, and tortillas are rare
(C) Belizeanstypically eat its meals with rice, with tortillas as rare
(D) Belizeanstypically eat their meals with rice, tortillas a rarity
(E) Belizeans typically eat their meals with rice, withtortillas as a rarity

E错选A，主要是这句话的意思没搞懂，正确的意思是：Belizean是吃米饭，不怎么吃玉米饼。我原本以为就是说虽然B挨着墨西哥这些生产玉米饼的国家，但是B都吃米饭且玉米饼很少见。。。。但其实不是这个意思，就是说不怎么吃玉米饼，但还是有点无法理解。。不理解为什么要说后面是irrelevant，前面墨西哥他们都吃，后面说玉米饼在B少见，哪里irrelevant了？读的时候理解的就是A的意思。。。

9.(79)When theCalvinists could not agree with the established religious doctrine, they bothbroke with the Roman Catholic Church, whichresulted in the Religious Wars of the 16th century, and with the Lutherans,differing from their fellow Protestants on thedoctrines of Communion and other theories of worship.
A. which resulted in the Religious Wars of the16th century, and with the Lutherans, differing
B. resulting in the Religious Wars of the 16thcentury, and the Lutherans, who differed
C. which resulted in the Religious Wars of the 16thcentury, and abandoned the Lutherans, who differed
D.resulting in the Religious Wars of the 16th century, and abandoned theLutherans, differing
E. resulting in the Religious Wars of the 16thcentury, and also abandoned the Lutherans, who differed
D
10.(80)Just howmuch the prime minister's scandal has affected the trust of her constituentsand the opinions of fellow world leaders hadbeen among the most pressing questions facing the country andEurope as a whole.

A) had been amongthe most
B) are among themore

The Federal Reserve bond buyback program has buoyed Wall Street, (E) and helped the stock market reach record highs, but has not translated into consistent job growth across the country.
(D) and helped the stock market reach record highs, but it has yet to translate into consistent job growth across the country
D
在(E)中，不能说：the reserve has buoyed, and helped, but yet to translate or but has not translated。因为第一部分后面有 "and"，所以必须在 "but"之后创建一个新的分句。在(B)中，"the program has buoyed, helped... but it has"--这是不正确的，因为前两个动词是并列的，不能在最后一个分句中出现it。只有(D)句子结构正确，表达了逻辑上的意思：the program has buoyed Wall Street, and helped the stock market, but it has yet to translate...." 在 "Wall Street"和 "and"之间的逗号似乎很不寻常，但它的存在是为了表明后面的内容是与第一个分句有关的额外信息：the buyback has buoyed Wall Street, and(as a result) helped the stock market reach record highs, but it has yet to do this.

Although Belize borders Guatemala and Mexico, countries in which tortillas are served with nearly every dish, (A) Belizeans typically eat their meals with rice, and tortillas are rare.
(E) Belizeans typically eat their meals with rice, with tortillas as a rarity
A- "and tortillas are rare" adds a new subject (tortilla) and description (they're rare) that doesn't link to the rest of the sentence. This isn't logical (it's as if the sentence says "Belizeans typically eat their meals with rice and penguins can't fly" - the "and" clause just doesn't relate)
