In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus was growing on the walls.
In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled bv tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus was growing on the walls.
(A) due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing (B) due to moisture that tourists had exhaled, thereby raising its humidity to such levels that salt from the stone would crystallize (C) because tourists were exhaling moisture, which had raised the humidity within them to levels such that salt from the stone would crystallize (D) because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize (E) because moisture exhaled by tourists had raised the humidity within them to such levels that salt from the stone was crystallizing
解析: A Due to is an imprecise expressionof the causal connection between the tourists' breath and the closing of the museum for cleaning; the singular pronoun its does not agree with the plural antecedent chambers. B It is not at all clear what the referenceis for the pronoun its; fungus was growing should be parallel to salt... was crystallizing (not would crystallize) because it is another effect of the humidity. C The pronoun them seems to refer to tourists, which is nonsensical; the entire construction is awkward and wordy; would crystallize is not parallel to was growing. D Once again, them seems to refer to tourists; the entire construction is awkward, wordy, and ambiguous; crystallize is not parallel to was growing. E Correct. The causal sequence isclear, and them clearly refers tochambers. The correct answer is E.
问题: 答案中没有涉及到Such that的问题。 以下表达都可以吗? to such level so that --- 是否such与so重复了? to such level that --- 正确 to levels such that --- 是否正确? to levels so high as to ---- so .... as to = so.... that?
A. 错误点(1):没有such...so that的用法,只有so..that和such...that引导的是结 果状语从句所以· 错误点(2):moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to这里是一个非限制性定语从句,而先行词应该是moisture,而不是tourists A错 B. (1)due to和because of都属于口语话的表达方式,一般在GMAT考试中视为错误 (2)and前后应该平行 C. 没有平行 D. because of; 以及没有平行 E. 答案是对的
