GWD3-Q10:
Antarctica

A.is reflective, so that little polar ice melts during the summer; otherwise,
B.is so reflective that little of the polar ice melts during the summer; were it to do so,
C.so reflective that little polar ice melts during the summer, or else
D.reflective, so that little of the polar ice melts during the summer, or
E.reflects so that little of the polar ice melts during the summer; if it did
正确答案是B，不太理解， 主要是对were it to do so 不理解？？

GWD3-Q19:

GWD3-Q22:

额，这个题目完全没有看懂是什么意思？？


GWD3-Q34:
Shoppers in sporting goods stores, unlike in department stores, do very little impulse shopping, not buying a pair of skis and a boomerang when they come in for a basketball, but they leave with a basketball only.
A.in department stores, do very little impulse shopping, not buying a pair of skis and a boomerang when they come in for a basketball, but they leave with a basketball only
B.in department stores, shop impulsively very little; someone who comes in for a basketball will leave with a basketball only and not also buy a pair of skis and a boomerang as well
C.those in department stores, do very little impulse shopping, do not buy a pair of skis and a boomerang when they come in for a basketball, but leave with only a basketball
D.those in department stores, do very little impulse shopping; someone who comes in for a basketball will leave with a basketball only and not buy a pair of skis and a boomerang as well
E.department stores, shop impulsively very little; someone will not buy a pair of skis and a boomerang when they come in for a basketball but will leave with only a basketball

答案是D，我选的是C，这两个选项唯一的区别就是后半句话，是不是由于C中间do not 前面少了一个连词？还有其他的错误吗？

GWD3-Q39:
Minivans carry as many as seven passengers and, compared with most sport utility vehicles, cost less, get better gas mileage, allow passengers to get in and out more easily, and have a smoother ride.

D.Minivans, carrying as many as seven passengers, compared with most sport utility vehicles, cost less,
E.Minivans, which carry as many as seven passengers, compared with most sport utility vehicles the cost is lower, and they

看了好久，第二次做的时候还是错选了D，不知道为什么，我觉得D也没有错啊，主谓完整，意思好像也没有什么变化，A是正确的我可以理解~就是希望能帮忙分析一下D为什么错误~~谢谢！~~~
非常感谢大家的帮助~~谢谢！~~

关于34题
解释C选项为何不对：
摘自Ron在Manhattan论坛上的解释：
1) there's no such construction as "A, B, but C". i.e., "but" can't link three things in the way that "and" or "or" could.

2) it makes no sense to put all 3 of these things in parallel, because they don't belong in parallel; the last two are an explanation of the first one. i.e., the last two things are an explanation of the idea that these shoppers "do very little impulse shopping".

Ron 的意思是，do very little impulse shopping, do not buy a pair of skis and a boomerang when they come in for a basketball, but leave with only a basketball 后两句是解释第一句的，这三个分句并没有平行的关系然而却构成了平行的机构，所以是错的

我认为还有一点，逗号+but，but作为连词，后面连接的应该是一个完整的句子，而C选项but后面是没有主语的。

而D选项对的很显然。those in department stores, do very little impulse shopping; someone who comes in for a basketball will leave with a basketball only and not buy a pair of skis and a boomerang as well
分号引起另一个完整的句子，同时可以解释说明第一句的主语shoppers，定语从句who comes in for a basketball 修饰someone，leave 和 not buy 构成平行。
在beatgmat论坛中这道题很普通，很多native speaker进来说了一句 "parallelism, choose D" 就走了。。

三年了。。正好做到 我觉得b之所以错 是它用了两个定冠词 the melting 和 the sea level
这里只是陈述温室效应会使冰川融化和海平面升高 是个笼统的结果 不需要特指

crime 就是对 to 后面那一串的解释啊

我把完整的句子写出来吧
To hold gold in the form of bullion or coins is made a crime punishable by imprisonment  by the law passed in 1933.
这样 不是很冗杂 而且不好理解吗

恩恩，是很不好理解~
那crime 那一部分做什么成分啊？感觉是多余的啊，整个句子结构不应该是to....is made by the law...吗？

持有金子是被1933年的法律导致的？这句话根本说不通啊crime不能少，因为原文意思是“持有金子是被1933年的法律认定为的犯罪行为”
