According to one expert, the cause ofgenetic irregularities in many breeds of dog is not so much
that dogs are being bred for looks or tomeet other narrow criteria as that the breeds have relatively
(A) the cause of genetic irregularitiesin many breeds of dog is not so much that dogs are being
bred for looks or to meet other narrowcriteria
(B) the cause of genetic irregularitiesin many breeds of dog is not as much their being bred for
looks or meeting other narrow criteria asmuch
(C) it is not so much the cause ofgenetic irregularities in many breeds of dog that they are being
bred for looks or meeting other narrowcriteria as much
(D) it is not so much that the cause ofgenetic irregularities in many breeds of dog is their being bred
for looks or meeting other narrowcriteria so much
(E) it isnot so much the cause of genetic irregularities in many breeds of dog to bebred for looks or
to meet other narrow criteria
句子结构:According to…, the cause of… is not so much that… as that… 比较结构。
1) 比较的习惯用法,not so much that… as that… 与其说…不如说…,形式平行,常见的错误用法
有:not so muchtheir…as much as that; not so as…as much as; not so much… so much as,
2) 平行对称,GMAT语法中常见的平行结构混淆选项是形式上平行,但逻辑上修饰对象是错误的,
(A) 正确,for looks or to meet平行修饰谓语bred,是功能平行而不是形式平行,表示be bred的目的。
(B) not so much their being…as much asthat…不平行。
(C) it表语从句用法错误,not so much the cause of…as much as that…不平行;are being bred for
looks or meeting…中的meeting有与being并列的歧义,应该用to meet表示目的。
(D) it表语从句用法错误,第二个is多余,not somuch… so much as搭配错误;应该用to meet。 (E) it表语从句用法错误;to be bred和to meet逻辑上不平行;notso much that…搭配不完整
我的问题是:这里CDE选项说IT表语从句用法错误,怎么错了啊,那正确的应该是什么呢 |
