GMATPREP一部分有可能是真题，随便问个语法

XUANYA2005

下个星期一考了，所以今天模考gmatprep，发现有一部分是gwd，还有一篇阅读是jj，就是历史学家研究妇女方法的变化，所以怀疑GMATPrep 部分内容是真题，虽然ETS称它是为了准备2006年考试的东西。建议版主推荐一下。

A study of food resources in the North Pacific between 1989 and 1996 revealed that creatures of the seabed were suffering from dwindling food supplies, possibly resulting from increasing sea surface temperatures during the same period.

a)  that creatures of the seabed were suffering from dwindling food supplies, possibly resulting from increasing

b)  that creatures of the seabed were suffering because food supplies were dwindling, possibly as a result of an increase in

c)  that creatures of the seabed were suffering because of food supplies, which were dwindling possibly as a result of increasing

d)  creatures of the seabed that were suffering from food supplies that were dwindling, possibly resulting from an increase in

e)  creatures of the seabed that were suffering because food supplies were dwindling, which possibly resulted from increasing

answer: (b)

我选A，觉得A更加简洁，哪位给看看啊！

自己顶！

选B 。

1。A 中有两处错误。现在分词DWINDLING 和INCREASING 做定语修饰后面的名词，表示动作正在进行，但是看整个大句子，你就回发现，它在陈述一个过去的事实。还有TESULTING FROM 放在句尾，回产生逻辑歧义。

2。模考软件还是应该多做的，对练PACE 很有好处。

欢迎讨论！

b中不也是dwindling？

关于resulting from放在句尾有歧义，是不是说A中result可以修饰dwindling food supplies，也可以修饰suffering？那么B中为什么可以认为那个possibly as a result of  是从句中的一部分，肯定修饰food supplies？

同问！

B, it is not clear whether "resulting" modifies "creatures" or "food supplies".

A, it is clear that "as a result" modifies the preceding sentence as a whole.

,doing 不是可以做伴随结果修饰前面整个一句话吗？

(A)是不是因为 increasing sea surface temperatures during the same period发生在was suffering之前，所以用resulting做伴随结果不合适？
