不行。
注意，although是一个连词，连词连接两个有特定关系的句子。这两个句子必须有完整的结构。
如果想省，getting up early, I still went to work yesterday.

做OG分册的时候做到这么一道题

Reporting that one of its many problems had been the recent extended sales slump in women's apparel,the seven-store retailer said it would start a three-month liquidation sale in all of its stores.
A its many problems had been the recent  
B its many problems has been the recently  
C its many problems is the recently  
D their many problems is the recent  
E their many problems had been the recent
想请问下recnet这个考点
the recent extended sales slump
the recently extended sales slump
这两个去区别在哪呢
语感不好感觉这两个意思没区别
OG上解释说 "recently" suggests illogically that the sales slump had been recently extended.

扩大的、增加的 ？ 最近扩大的销售下降？

扩大的、增加的 ？ 最近扩大的销售下降？

recently表示最近已经完成，强调完成时，一次性的动作。
如果用recently，修饰extended，就强调了最近有一次销售下滑程度的扩大。
句子中应该不是想强调extended而是强调slump，所以后面retailer才要采取行动吧。

如果考点是这个，那是语意上的东西了，估计710分以上的题。
如果不理解，就先用其他语法排除错误选项吧。

问一道老题目....
Visitors to the park have often looked up into the leafy canopy and saw monkeys sleeping on the branches, whose arms and legs hang like socks on a clothesline.

A saw monkeys sleeping on the branches, whose arms and legs hang
B saw monkeys sleeping on the branches, whose arms and legs were hanging
C saw monkeys sleeping on the branches, with arms and legs hanging
D seen monkeys sleeping on the branches, with arms and legs hanging
E seen monkeys sleeping on the branches, whose arms and legs have hung关于E中为什么whose不能跳过 on the branches修饰monkeys的问题，翻了manhanttan的论坛 没找到太理想的解释
Ron说过可以跳过修饰
importantly, in this sort of structure (NOUN1 + prep + NOUN2 + THAT..., or NOUN1 + (modifier ending with NOUN2) + THAT...), the "that"-modifier can actually modify either NOUN1 or NOUN2.
搞不懂了 原来越糊涂 难道有with比whose更好才选D？

Ron说的这种情况是允许存在，但不是最佳。
如果whose会引起歧义，那肯定就错。除非到了700以上难度较高的题，是允许瑕疵选最优选项，其他简单题看到whose之前两个名词直接就排除了。
另外，猴子的手和腿挂在树上不需要使用完成时态吧。

请教一道manhattan模考里的题目，答案是B，其他地方没有问题， 就想请问下分号后面不应该是加完整的句子吗？ 而B选项分号后面只是一个though引导的从句，没有主句。为什么这样？还是说这里有省略？

翻了manhattan论坛 照的这么一句解释 ：

Like cats, dogs are pets; Unlike cats though, dogs require constant attention.

[size=14.007px]难道这里B选项里的though是做副词吗
