Manhattan里的两个问题一直不懂

SeanF

Manhattan PREP 里有两道语法题我不是特别明白，请教大神解答困惑！
1.Well-informed people know that Bordeaux is a French region whose most famous export is the wine which bears its name.

answer: which should be changed to that, the explanation in the book: the context of this sentence calls for an essential clause to modify the wine, since the point of the clause is to identify the wine. if the sentence ended with the wine, it would be incomplete. the clause should therefore begin with that rather than which.


which前面没有逗号啊，是essentisl clause啊，为啥非要改成that?


2.Between 1998 and 2003, there was heavy fightling in Parthia among numerous armed factions yet this conflict, so much more complicated than a conventional war between two states, involved no fewer than eight countries and twenty-fiive militias.

answer: yet should be changed to a semicolon (;), the explanation in the book: yet is illogical because the aciton in the second clause (this conflict...militias) did not happen despite the action in the first clause (between ... factions), as a word such as yet suggests.

没看懂这个解释。
用；我能理解， semicolon  connects two independent clause, and is often followed by a transition expression, such as howerver.
但是，FANBOYS 中的yet是 “但是，然而” 的意思吧？所以这个地方是不是应该可以用 comma + yet ？ 链接两个complete sentence，同时表转折？

第一题关于限制性定语从句，好像在哪看到过，GMAT中的限制性定语从句都不可以用which引导
第二题如果用YET翻译过来是“这有一场战争，然而这场冲突很复杂”会比较没有逻辑性吧。YET表转折，前后部分冲突。有没有战争和战争复不复杂没有什么冲突啊。

第一题
我觉得这个应该是那个essential clause的关系，在八十多页专门讲了曼哈顿自己的理解，最后说
However, the GMAT has acknowledged that this whichlthat differentiation is controversial,
so the GMAT is unlikely to make this distinction the make-or-break issue for any answer
choice.
所以我觉得这个which that 应该没神马影响

周尼玛是神

啊哈哈哈哈哈楼主你的问题真的和我有疑问的一毛一样啊哈哈哈
