两题语法的比较[注意]:大全305，补充188+kaplan一题

以下是引用zhouhaichen在2003-11-12 15:57:00的发言：
还有一个疑问.
我在做题的时候认为,题目中共两处出现了they,所以第二个they和第一个they 指代同一目标,无歧义,因而选了a.如果按照1stzhang 的说法,那么句中的两个they岂不指代不同事物了.似乎和某公理不符.
they are finding that the so-called "quick disintegration" plantics are taking  more time to deteriorate than　it originally seemed they would

同意，有疑问，同一个they在句中指代了两个不同的名词。

只能说KAP没有掌握ETS的出题原则，答案都有THEY大家将就着选吧。

越来越糊涂了．．．

我觉得Ｅ才有问题．．．it根本无指代对象．．．ＯＧ上不是说出现代词一定要有指代的对象吗？

请问nn，这题有定论了吗？

kaplan's is wrong, for there are two "they" that refer to different things; it is absolutely wrong in GMAT.

俺对kap补全的理解：

they are finding that ... plastics are taking more time to deteriorate than it originally seemed they (指researchers) would (find)

这样两个they都指researchers.

补充188没这样的指代问题，所以they orignially seemed就够了，而kap不得不这样罗嗦

试比较大全305和KAPLAN的两题结构：

大全305：A (pl.) turn out to do ..more than they (A) originally seemed (to do) - 主句中只有一个复数名词
KAPLAN：A (pl.) find that B (pl.) are doing..more than B-they? would originally seem (to do) 显然they会引起指代歧义

所以，KAPLAN这道题的重点应该是在说，当主句中出现两个复数名词，如何避免代词指代歧义的方法，而所谓最优选项E的做法就是用单数it作形式主语指代后面的内容。

具体的补全过程是：首先，B are doing ..more than B would originally seemed to do (内容具体化就是：Plastics are taking more time to deteriorate than plastics would originally seemed to take to deteriorate)

然后，把划线部分改成it引导的主语从句并省略：it originally seemd (that) they (plastics) would (take to deterioriate)

但个人持两点保留意见，也是前辈们有所争论的：

1.it seem that...主语从句引导词that究竟能否省略？OG里面好象没见过，待考；

2.一个句子中两次出现they,指代方向、内容各异，这样的逻辑不会被ETS认做有混乱不清的嫌疑？

ＴＨＥＹ怎么会指代主句里的ＴＨＥＹ呢．．．．根本说不通啊．．呵呵

有没有高人把这句话给补齐了？

For many travelers,charter vacations often turn out to cost considerably more than they(vacations) originally seemed (to cost).

是这样的么？

这算哪门子的平行结构？主语？谓语？宾语？状语的平行？哪个都不是啊。

我还是觉得E通顺些。三年前的大牛只讲了就近原则。有没有其他大牛再说说？
