og13--004 Duke Ellington 关于指代的疑惑

viewlam

At the end of the 1930s, Duke Ellington was looking

for a composer to assist him—someone not only who

could arrange music for his successful big band, but

mirroring his eccentric writing style as welt in order to

finish the many pieces he had started but never

completed.

(A) someone not only who could arrange music for

his successful big band, but mirroring his

eccentric writing style as well in order to finish

(B) someone who could not only arrange music for

his successful big band, but also mirror his

eccentric writing style in order to finish

(C) someone who not only could arrange music for

his successful big band, but also to mirror his

eccentric writing style in finishing

(D) that being someone who could not only arrange

music for his successful big band, but mirroring

his eccentric writing style for finishing

(E) being someone not only who could arrange

music for his successful big band, but mirror his

eccentric writing style aswell, finishing

想请问一下各位NN们，E选项，OG的解释是，加了being以后会不合逻辑地指代到Ellington本身。

我不明白这是个为什么会指代到Ellington？求教～

我好像有点想出来了，是不是因为being 和前面的was并列，可以看成都是Ellington引导的，所以才说他不合逻辑地指代到了Ellington本身？
求指正～～

这里E选项的错误有很多，没有必要一一深究。关键是如何排除和正确的用法是什么，不太会是用到Being修饰的对象有问题来排除的。

assist him - being someone, 这里being是修饰him的，不是verb，不能和was并列。

懂了！豁然开朗！感谢！！

噜啦啦biu

正好在找解释就翻到楼楼的帖子了。
(A) someone not only who could arrange music for his successful big band,but mirroring his eccentric writing style as well in order to finish(B) someone who could not only arrange music for his successful big band,but also mirror his eccentric writing style in order to finish
(C) someone who not only could arrange music for his successful big band,but also to mirror his eccentric writing style in finishing
(D) that being someone who could not only arrange music for his successful big band, but mirroring his eccentric writing style for finishing
(E) being someone not only who could arrange music for his successful big band, but mirror his eccentric writing style as well, finishing
这几个选项 只有B 符合平行 所以就定位到B了。
看看其他错误：
someone  (who could not only arrange music for his successful big band ,but also mirror his eccentric writing style modifier  )  ; finish the many pieces he had started but never completed ( looking for a composer to assist him 的目的）
那么体现 finish 和look 关系的话 就是
A/B. Duke Ellington was looking for a composer to assist him in order to finish ....(正确关系）
C.Duke Ellington was looking for a composer to assist him in finishing    delete
D.Duke Ellington was looking for a composer to assist him for  finishing(不知道是否正确，求问)
E Duke Ellington was looking for a composer to assist him ,finishing the many pieces he had started but never completed.(looking 和finishing 的动作根本不是同时的，并且也不是一件事 ，而是two  seperate things  所以delete )

啊！这个E选项ving的删除之前没想到！感谢！
对于D选项的错误我认为是表达目的的时候for+ving没有A的to do以及in order to来的更加直接，所以删除。（这个表目的的排除在做题中常常遇到）

好的 谢谢楼楼 ~
今天看到之前对E的解释 感觉有些生硬  觉得其实看到comma ing 就应该想到 和主句的关系是  immediately consequence  或者是 further description 而本句intended meaning说的是目的  所以delete (似乎还有一个 但是我忘记是什么?没有复习笔记的习惯  所以整完就忘了 复习笔记找到再添上来)另外 我觉得不关注being那些细点比较好，我觉得做SC还是先关注大的关系  这题里的being 更像是个distraction


摘录 RON 语录如下(链接找不到了)
Look for the big things first.
Look for the following before you think about anything else, ever:
"” Parallelism (always #1"”always. If you don't see parallel structures, you'll mistake them for individual decisions.)
"” Pronoun agreement
"” S-V agreement
"” Overall sentence structure (Is the whole thing actually a sentence?)
"” Placement (Are chunks of words moved around to different locations?)
"” Use of modifiers.

If you can find these six things every time, you will already be able to get almost every SC problem correct.
Everything else is mostly distractions.

此外，sc考察的是关系
Just don't forget: The gmat tests things that are relationships.
If you see something that's a "point" distinction"”i.e., a decision where you just look in one place, and decide what one thing should look like"”it's almost certainly a distraction from what GMAC is actually trying to test.

Just think about all of the major themes tested in SC:
* Subject-verb agreement: The subject is in one place. The verb is somewhere else.
* Parallel structures: They're in different places.
* Pronouns: The pronoun is in one place. The noun is somewhere else.
* Modifiers: The modifier is somewhere. The stuff that determines whether the modifier is correct or incorrect is somewhere else.
* Verbs: The verb is somewhere, but its tense is determined by the entire context of the sentence.

You get the point. EVERYTHING that plays a significant role in SC is a relationship. I.e., you see a split, and you DON'T just look at that split. You resolve the split by looking somewhere else in the sentence.
This is true even for things that are basically formulas, e.g., idioms. Note that idioms don't appear in one place. One part of the idiom is somewhere. The other part is somewhere else.
So, if you see something that's all in one place"”like "California highways" vs. "highways in California" vs. "California's highways""”ignore it. It's just there to throw you off the scent of the stuff that actually constitutes the crux of the problem.

Also, remember that you can't really memorize which constructions are "point" constructions and which are relationships. It varies from problem to problem.

Some things"”like the ones I listed above"”are always relationships, and so are always important.
But, some things can be "point" distinctions (and therefore irrelevant distractions) in some problems, but relationships (and therefore important) in other problems.

E.g.
If you see "California's highways" vs. "California highways" vs. "highways in California" by itself"”with no obvious link to anything else in the sentence"”then it's a distraction and you shouldn't care about it.
On the other hand, if you see that, and you see "Arizona highways" somewhere else in the sentence, then WHOA suddenly it's a parallelism relationship, and you darn well better care about it. A lot.

You get the point. SC is relationships. If you see a split, look to see whether that split is controlled by an "engine" that's elsewhere in the sentence.
我摘录的这两段 RON说的话 真的超棒 如果没读过 可以细读
