Sec B:

9.Art museums do not usually think of their collections as capital or consider the interest income that would be generated if a portion of the capital would have been invested in another form.
(A) be generated if a portion of the capital would have been
(B) have been generated if a portion of the capital would have been
(C) be generated if a portion of the capital were
(D) be generated if a portion of the capital was
(E) be generated if a portion of the capital had been

Consider的用法? 为什么是consider sth. that....而不是consider that sth. + 句子?

15.The increased popularity and availability of televisions has led to the decline of regional dialects, language variations which originate from diverse ethnic and cultural heritages and perpetuated by geographic isolation.
(A) which originate from diverse ethnic and cultural heritages and perpetuated
(B) that originated from diverse ethnic and cultural heritages and perpetuated
(C) originated from diverse ethnic and cultural heritages and perpetuated
(D) originating from diverse ethnic and cultural heritages and perpetuated
(E) originating from diverse ethnic and cultural heritages and perpetuating

为什么答案是D? Originating 表"现在进行",与Perpetuated不并列.我觉得应用Originated,"过去完成".

Thanks!

9. 好问题，art museums ... think of ...as...  or consider [the interest] [income] <-- that...，明白了吗。that 是修饰 income的，consider的历史使命已经完成了，哈哈。

15. variations |originating from|...|perpetuated by|，是现在分词和过去分词并列做定语，OG里有一道类似的题。主要是要屡清分词和被修饰对象的关系。originate似乎无法用过去分词来传递概念。Any way, A good question! 所以不能光考虑平行的形式，要注意陷阱。

OG的例子
210. Scientists have recently discovered what could be the largest and oldest living organism on Earth, a giant fungus that is an interwoven filigree of mushrooms and rootlike tentacles spawned by a single fertilized spore some 10,000 years ago and extending for more than 30 acres in the soil of a Michigan forest.

A.extending
B.extends
C.extended
D.it extended
E.is extending

Choice A, the best answer, preserves grammatical parallelism while allowing for logical expression of temporal relationships; A employs the parallel participial phrases spawned... and extending ... to modify filigree.

有道理,我仔细看了看9, consider sth. sth. 以前把interest income当词组了. 但觉得从句子连贯性上,that从句是修饰interest的.虽然位于income后面.
15, 倘若答案无误,我查了动词搭配字典,从例句分析,originated估计是表被动性的产生,这里是主动的,所以用originating.
谢谢.

15: 为什么是主动的呢？我怎么觉得应该是主动的阿。
language variation originated from ..... and .....
不是更说得通么？

originated from …表示被……起源，好诡异，根本说不通滴

第九题为什么consider the interest income中the interest income不是一个词表示利润收吗？

偶也把interest income当词组了，咋看咂别扭，总觉得句子不完整，缺个宾语补足语。现在明白了哈

顶一下，同问这个问题。哪位高手来出个招？

chasedreamtrue

income that would be -----if ----were 这是个以if引导的虚拟语气的句子，从句中用过去时表现在，所以is 用were来表示， 主句中用would+动词原形的形式。我是这样理解的
