求解OG12-88, ETS 的解释说服不了俺啊！！！~~~

Jolinsysu

88. Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and
composer, produced a body of work both rooted in the
stride-piano tradition of Willie (The Lion) Smith and
Duke Ellington, yet in many ways he stood apart from
the mainstream jazz repertory.
(A) Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and
composer, produced a body of work both rooted
(B) Thelonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer,
produced a body of work that was rooted both
(C) Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk,
who produced a body of work rooted
(D) Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk
produced a body of work that was rooted
(E) Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk
produced a body of work rooted both

如上，请NN们给予指点啊，我觉得B比D好啊，D不是常见表达，读起来挺拗口的。。。。求解释啊！~~~

nemiah

yet.. 不是表示转折吗？

貌似可以提出主干:TM produced a body of work that was rooted in the stride-piano tradition,yet.....of后面的所有格是用来补充说明tradition的.

Heather_Lau

我开始也是选B, 但是比较来说，先看 BOTH ...AND..., 在gmat 里面是严格的平行结构。但是这里  and 链接的两个词才是并列的， 如果加了 BOTH 就一定不平行了。 所以不可能是 B. 剩下的 就是 GMAT 考的 简洁了。

可不可以这样理解,如果是both ... and ...,则应该表达为rooted both in the tradition of WM and that of DE?平行结构嘛.

Heather_Lau

如果把B答案改成TM,the jazz pianist and composer,produced a body of work that was rooted,那就应该选B了吧.
总觉得D答案中 jazz pianist and composer TM的表达怪怪的,大概不是一个常用表达吧,虽然从grammar上来讲也是对的.

这个我也知道，主要当时觉得它没有冠词么~
现在想来，是不是改成 Jazz pianist and jazz composer 才可能会产生歧义？

orange09

这个不可能。。。我记得之前老师有讲过 a teacher and pianist XXX是说XXX即是老师又是钢琴家 而a teacher and a pianist才是说两个人。。。 小弟才疏学浅。。。还望大牛们指导。。。

sunnyybao

Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk 不会产生歧义吗？就是说有没可能理解成两个人呢？

sheikh239

我也觉得很有问题~~我也是选B的~~真的觉得B长得才像正选吖！
另外，据给我们上课的新东方老师说，所谓OG根本就是委托第三方单位做的，根本不是出题人给出的解释和答案~~~咱已经见过无数同样题目、但在新东方蓝书和OG上答案截然不同的情况了~

那你是信新东方呢，还是信OG呢？
