12. Rising inventories, when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead to production cutbacks that would hamper economic growth. (A) when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead (B) when not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, possibly leads (C) when they were unaccompanied by corresponding sales increases, can lead (D) if not accompanied by correspondingly increased sales, possibly leads (E) if not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, can lead
Answer is E. 解释中说:Unaccompanied is not wrong but not accompanied more e?ectively expresses the intended negation. 我选的是a, 但是光凭这个解释就把unaccompanied排除,我不是很理解…我选择unaccompanied的原因就是觉得比not accompanied简洁一些。请问怎么理解not accompanied比unaccompanied more effectively呢?
25. Based on accounts of various ancient writers, scholars have painted a sketchy picture of the activities of an all-female cult that, perhaps as early as the sixth century B.C., worshipped a goddess known in Latin as Bona Dea, “the good goddess.” (A) Based on accounts of various ancient writers, (B) Basing it on various ancient writers’ accounts, (C) With accounts of various ancient writers used for a basis, (D) By the accounts of various ancient writers they used, (E) Using accounts of various ancient writers,
答案是e 我知道这题有很多人在论坛里问过了..可是还是各种看不懂…就是想不通为什么scholars不能based on accounts of various ancient writers.
46. In ancient Thailand, much of the local artisans’ creative energy was expended for the creation of Buddha images and when they constructed and decorated the temples that enshrined them.
(A) much of the local artisans’ creative energy was expended for the creation of Buddha images and when they constructed and decorated the temples that enshrined them (B) much of the local artisans’ creative energy was expended on the creation of Buddha images and on construction and decoration of the temples in which they were enshrined (C) much of the local artisans’ creative energy was expended on the creation of Buddha images as well as constructing and decoration of the temples in which they were enshrined (D) creating images of Buddha accounted for much of the local artisans’ creative energy, and also constructing and decorating the temples enshrining them (E) the creation of Buddha images accounted for much of the local artisans’ creative energy as well as construction and decoration of the temples that enshrined them
答案是b, 可是 e为什么不对呢? 而且觉得b选项里有2个and在一个句子中, “the creation of Buddha images and on construction and decoration of the temples“ 这样是可以的吗?还是我对句子的结构有错误的理解?这句话能有牛人帮我梳理下句子结构吗?实在不能理解为什么有2个and在一个句子里…
58. A leading ?gure in the Scottish Enlightenment, Adam Smith’s two major books are to democratic capitalism what Marx’s Das Kapital is to socialism. (A) Adam Smith’s two major books are to democratic capitalism what (B) Adam Smith’s two major books are to democratic capitalism like (C) Adam Smith’s two major books are to democratic capitalism just as (D) Adam Smith wrote two major books that are to democratic capitalism similar to (E) Adam Smith wrote two major books that are to democratic capitalism what
答案是 e 我选的是a, 只是觉得a的格式“Adam Smith’s two major books”和后面的格式” Adam Smith wrote two major books” 很像. 而且我知道比较对象是两本书,可是a选项难道比的不是书么?
第三题e选项的意思是the creation account for energy as well as the construction and decoration 意思不对了 原文意思是否如果按e照表达也应该是否creation as well as construction and decoration account for energy 原文的意思是说 创造佛像形象以及 建筑和装饰temples 耗费了artisans 的大量精力 这个逻辑加上对等要求就是B了 至于最后的and and 它是两层第一层是 on creation AND on construction and decoration 两个on 的内容并列第一层 后面的construction和decoration是on短语里面的小并列它们两一块作为整体跟creation平行
第二题,因为based on是被动,至于这个你其实可以参考OG对B的解释。我现在手边上没有OG,但如果我的理解正确,OG对B的解释应该不会包含based on不能modify scholars,而是因为it没有referent. 第三题,语感上你感觉and连用不舒服,但是我必须告诉你as well as和and在意思上没有差别,在语气上的差别就是and前后轻重对等,两边内容可以对调,而as well as前后有语气轻重之分。另外and连用肯定是没有任何问题的。而如果不从你问的问题的角度考虑,E最大的问题在于那个them。
对于句子结构我实在不会梳理...我把意群给你画出来吧 In ancient Thailand, (much of the local artisans’ creative energy)( was expended)( on the creation of Buddha images /and/ on construction and decoration of the temples)( in which they were enshrined).
这样的话,简化后的句子读法就是 energy was expended on sth and on sth A and sth B in which they were enshrined.
第四个很简单,A选项比的是书,但是书不能是一个领军人物...a leading figure的修饰问题。因此只能在DE里面选
