og 117, 謝謝 : )

[face=Times New Roman]
117. A firm that specializes in the analysis of handwriting claims
from a one-page writing sample that it can assess more than
three hundred personality traits, including enthusiasm, imagination,
and ambition.

(A) from a one-page writing sample that it can assess
(B) from a one-page writing sample it has the ability of assessing
(C) the ability, from a one-page writing sample, of assessing
(D) to be able, from a one-page writing sample, to assess
(E) being able to assess, from a one-page writing sample,[/face]

排除后剩下A和D,不知道这时候大家都是怎么抉择的?
因为og并没有强制说claim that中间不能有插入字or句,
og是这样解释why(A)不能选:
[face=Times New Roman]
In A, placing that after sample rather than after claims
produces the unintended statement that the claim itself is made on the
basis of a single one-page writing sample. [/face]

偶以为：A中的it指代不清！

第一眼就可以排除。

這下明白為何ets要說 '' the unintended statement that the claim itself is made on the basis of a single one-page writing sample. '' 原來是這麼回事~

哎阿,今天脑子里都装浆糊了,被og的解释给吓着了,识题不清!
中国阿甘同學,你忙你忙~不叨擾了~

我就的还是按OG里说的比较好：不是from a one-page writing sample  去claim而是from a one-page writing sample 去 assess

OG解释很准确啊。"from a one-page writing sample "是修饰access的，A中则变成修饰claim，造成逻辑错误。

真理是越辯越明,謝謝大家

我接着这个帖子提问吧。

我查了词典，claim后面可以跟that从句，也可以跟名词。所以我想问一下这个题目如果把c答案改成the ability, from a one-page writing sample, to assess是不是就对了？请指点。谢谢！

OG有过明确的解释：Choice C repeats this second fault and uses the unidiomatic claims the ability.所以说，在这里，ETS认为claim的常用方式是claim to do和claim that

irenelj78

好别扭。只好这么记了。

谢谢。

針對本題再補充一種解法

就是插入句不妨先忽略不看，扣除不該選的BCE，你會發現確只有D比較好，precisely and concisely.
