我真的绝望了，为什么语法真是一点都没有提高呢~~？？！！！！

我一战610失败后，就十分绝望，现在准备二战，BF也要出国，所以，压力好大，如果出不去，不仅伤了父母心，而且与BF也算是缘分已尽，更重要是对自己的绝望！！！我的语法真是，不知道为什么，就是错的很多，多到令人绝望，我真的就是不会，不会，不会~
今天做了GWD 24-5，然后语法有绝望的错了八个，而且是连错，我真的不知道自己还有没有希望！！！！！
GWD7-Q4:

Only seven people this century have been killed by the great white shark, the man-eater of the movies—less than those killed by bee stings.



A.movies—less than those

B.movies—fewer than have been

C.movies, which is less than those

D.movies, a number lower than the people

E.movies, fewer than the ones


我选的是E，我首先把破折号排除了，因为我觉是种比较，而破折号是说明，然后，CD都不对，虽然E也不爽，但是选他了。最后答案是B。我真不知道为什么~~》》？？


这题我选的E，因为我觉得

加油！！！不要绝望 ！！ 我今天也错啦很多呀~~ 坚持  一来！
如果语法真的很弱 建议 重新再看次OG  

第一、 答案是  B

Less is wrong     A, C out

D compares number with people so wrong

E has 2 problems:
1- no parallelism (have been) with (killed)
2- "the ones" is ambiguous, is it "the movies" or "the people"?

二、关于 那个破折号

it's a dash. in this context, the dash essentially serves the same purpose as a comma. the only difference is that you don't use dashes at random; you use them when there is some special emphasis or irony (or both) in what you're saying.

example:
Joe, who is from Miami, complained about the cold of the Las Vegas winter. --> no irony; this makes perfect sense, since las vegas is much colder than miami in winter. therefore, no reason to use dashes.
Joe -- who is from Duluth -- complained about the cold of the Las Vegas winter. --> extreme irony, since duluth is about 70 degrees colder than las vegas in the winter.

same sort of deal here: there's considerable irony in the fact that the formidable shark has fewer kills under its belt than does the cute lil yellow fuzzy bee.

as a bonus, the dash also adds a degree of clarity, since "the great white shark" is already followed by one comma + appositive modifier; adding another modifier after another comma would muddy the waters a bit too much for my liking (and, apparently, for the test writers' liking as well).

小美女不要绝望，我也是从你那一步慢慢走过来的。
这题的一个大考点是句式平行。
因为出现了比较，所以就应该要主句和从句平行
未划线部分肯定正确：have been
那么划线部分应该也出现have been形式才可以平行对等
这样子的话，只有B才对
希望能帮到你
不要绝望！坚持下去，伤心和坚持的泪水终究可以化作幸福的泪水！

LZ别灰心 你不是为了你父母活着 也不是为了你的BF活着
你在做一件中国%99.9的同龄人都没做的事情 这还不能证明你是优秀的么?
考GMAT的心态一定要好 放轻松!很多700+的人都强调了一点那就是考试的时候一定要克服心理上的紧张

还有这道题目我也搞不懂 B和E 怎么分辨 这个比较省略也省的太多了吧 E:[font=]the ones,前面有定冠词the,表明指代前面曾经提到过的具体某一些人,在这个题目里,the ones特指前面被大白鲨杀死的那seven people.逻辑上,他们不可能既被great white shark又被bee stings所杀.
但是B的省略 我认为也省略过头了 没办法补上去
我认为这道题目做错了 情有可原 呵呵
不过你的思路有点远 竟然能想到  比较 和 说明 的区别
我觉得GMAT中最多靠到";"前后是两个独立的句子
其他的标点符号应该不会去考吧
你是不是在做题目的时候 想的语法点太多了 太深了 简单点 外国人出试卷哪有中国某些人那么缺德阿!
