43. Though Frank Lloyd Wright is best remembered today becauseof bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, most of hisbuildings were intended to blend into their surroundings.
              A             because of bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum
              B             for bold designs such as the one for the Guggenheim Museum
              C             because of bold designs such as the Guggenheim Museum
              D            because of bold designs such as that for the Guggenheim Museum
              E             for bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum's
题目解析：
Theoriginal sentence contains several errors. First, the phrase “rememberedbecause of” is unidiomatic; the correct idiomatic construction is “rememberedfor.” Second, "like" is incorrect because the Guggenheim is aspecific example and the use of "such as" would be more appropriateto introduce examples. Third, the sentence incorrectly suggests that "theGuggenheim Museum" is a "design." More properly, the sentenceshould discuss the design "for" the museum.
(A)This choice is incorrect as it repeats the original sentence.
(B) CORRECT. "Becauseof" is replaced by "for." "Like" is replaced by"such as." And the use of "the one for" makes clear thatthe design is for the museum and is not the museum itself.
(C)This choice does not correct "because of." Moreover, it incorrectlyimplies that the museum itself is a design. However, the use of "suchas" in place of "like" is correct.
(D)This choice does not correct "because of." Moreover, therelative pronoun “that” lacks a clear antecedent. It would be correct to say"The design for the house, like that for the factory, is beautiful,"for example. But such a parallel structure does not exist in this sentence.However, the use of "such as" in place of "like" iscorrect.
(E)This choice does not correct "like." Moreover, the possessiveconstruction "Guggenheim Museum's" is awkward and unidiomatic.However, the use of "for" rather than "because of" iscorrect.

题目点评：
     看到题干，可以先分为两组，ACD一组，BE一组。或者有人按such as 和like分，下面再说这种分法。
题干开头用“for"还是"because of"?这个选择比较令人困惑，我刚开始也选“because of"。因为让步状语从句翻译成中文就是“虽然如今Frank Lloyd Wright因为其大胆的设计。。。。而被人们所纪念”，用remember sb. because of不是理所当然，通通顺顺的嘛？for和because of 都表示因为。但是仔细揣摩一下，because of单纯的表示“原因”，for在表示原因的同时还可以表示纪念的内容，更符合主句关于building design的描述。
而且，because of是个短语介词，相比介词for显得wordy。最后，英语中remember sb. for sth.确实是idiom，表示“因为。。记主某人”，排除ACD组。比较BE中的such as 和like。表示举例的时候，GMAT语法不用"like",常用such as。因like常因其有“像。。一样”表比较而引起歧义。而such as 明确的表示列举具体的例子。排除E，故此题选B。
    如果按such as和like分组，则分为AE和BCD，用such as 排除AE后，BCE中such as后面跟的成分不同，对比之。首先，列举前的名词是design，说明要列举的事物也要是design才符合一致原则。而C是museum,显然不合适，排除。B和D都用了pron，但是that做pron时通常要有明确的指代对像，否则常指代距离较远的人或事物。排除D，选B。

此题的考的语法点有三个，即使其中某一个语法知识不熟悉，还可以用另外两个组合起来做排除，因此看起来比较复杂，从某种意义上来说也可以比较牢靠的用排除法找出答案。

思维点评：
大家普遍都在举例子应该怎么举上面出问题，因此选的C。因为中文的习惯说法是：。。。他那些大胆的设计，例如G博物馆，。。。。因为自己心里面已经知道例子肯定指的是G博物馆的设计。就比如说“小明喜欢牛仔裤的露洞设计，比如李威斯”。穿过李威斯漏洞牛仔裤的人知道这是再说啥，没穿过李威斯漏洞牛仔裤的人会奇怪“漏洞设计”跟“李威斯”有什么关系。所以不能用中文的阅读习惯来判断英文的写作习惯。无论是“对比”“类比”“举例”等等，一定要前后对象一致。切记切记！

四楼 庭草绿 童鞋：举例的时候要用同类事物，例子就是为了支持论点，所以要同类了，比较有说服力。

             A             because of bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum
like不能举例

             B             for bold designs such as the one for the Guggenheim Museum
the one for 的表现wordy

             C             because of bold designs such as the Guggenheim Museum
对

             D            because of bold designs such as that for the Guggenheim Museum
wordy

             E             for bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum's
like不能举例


[tr]  [td=710]1，记住句型：be remembered for（而不是be remembered because of）
   2，such as的时候，一定要看举的例子与原来的集合是否平行。
       1）比如 bold designs such as the  Guggenheim Museum 是错的，因为museum的实体不等同于design这个概念。
       2）bold designs such as the one for  the Guggenheim Museum就是对的，the use of "the one for" makes clear thatthe design  is for the museum and is not the museum itself.[/td][/tr]

             E             for bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum's举例用such as
选B

B：one 指代one of bold designs，由于是同一类而不是同一个，故用one。我理解的对么？

哎呀·错了错了·~~又是语义啊·~~这点又忽略了~~举例的内容也要和前面的对象一致的说~~

Though Frank Lloyd Wright is best remembered today becauseof bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, most of hisbuildings were intended to blend into their surroundings.
             A             because of bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum--> like 不可以表示举例.
             B             for bold designs such as the one for the Guggenheim Museum-->for 表原因意思模糊，原文的意思应该是就一个 G museum吧
             C             because of bold designs such as the Guggenheim Museum-->R
             D            because of bold designs such as that for the Guggenheim Museum-->that无指代.
             E             for bold designs like the Guggenheim Museum's-->like无法表示举例.

我觉得选C。
这道题主要是考like和such as。like是正式用语中表示比较，不表示列举。排除A, E。
其次，代词的使用，one和that都只能指代单数名词，而且那个博物馆本身就属于一个bold design，因此排除B, D。
C correct
这道题好像好考到了because和for，这是个盲点，请讲解。

博物馆一词可以有多种理解，可以理解为一个收藏各种物品的“地点”，比如说：咱们周末去博物馆吧。也可以 理解成形成博物馆的建筑，例如：那座博物馆很大。或者理解成一种代表，例句：那座博物馆是这个城市的象征。因此，并不能看到博物馆一词就认为他代表的是"design"。
Because和for请参加原帖里的“题目点评”。
谢谢参与！
