Q14:

Whereas lines of competition are clearly defined in the more established industries, in the Internet industry they are blurred and indistinct, as companies that compete one day may be partners the next.

1. Whereas lines of competition are clearly defined in the more established industries, in the Internet industry they are blurred and indistinct, as companies that compete (WHEREAS 结构比较概念最好一致.COMPANIES用ADJ修饰好于定语从句)


2. Although the lines of competition are clearly defined in industries that are more established, they are blurred and indistinct in the Internet industry, as competing companies(正确)


3. The lines of competition are clearly defined in the more established industries, unlike the Internet where they are blurred and indistinct, as companies that compete(UNLIKE不清+不必要的定语修饰)


4. Unlike more established industries, where the lines of competition are clearly defined, they are burred and indistinct in the Internet industry, as companies that compete(同C)


5. Unlike more established industries, with clearly defined lines of competition, those of the Internet industry are blurred and indistinct, as competing companies(UNLIKE比较不清)

我支持A，并且认为B 的错误非常明显。

B中，as competing companies one day may be partners the next—— one day是做什么成分呢？它显然是和后面的the next (day)对应的，而the next 显然是组状语的，那么one day也是做状语，在可能修饰一个名词短语呢？

A中大家攻击的the more established industries，并不会有歧义，因为有the；有歧异的案例是to produce more cost-saving small cars（大致如此，呵呵）和to produce small cars that are more cost-saving。很明显这个案例和本题是不同的。如果没有the，的确有两种含义；加了之后就没有歧义了。

I vote for A.

in B "..., as competing companies one day may be partners the next" What does "one day" modify? A : as companies that compete one day may be partners the next . It is clear and unambiguous.

Also in A, "the more established industries " is ok. The following is search result from Google:

完全同意。而且B用although总觉得逻辑意思上怪怪的。GMAT中如果原文的逻辑结构没有错，就最好不要改成其他的逻辑结构。

同意A

competing companies one day may be partners the next 好像有些不同

one day / the next都应该是状语

而A中companies that compete one day may be partners the next

one day 修饰compete， the next修饰may be，很通顺。
