我想问下从原题是如何看出来第二个will省略的啊？谢谢啦

fcceline

这道题型是考 THAT和并列

第一个AVOID和COME IN是并列的，这里的INSTEAD不是INSTEAD OF，没有必要去遵守什么，NOT..BUT>RATHER THANT>INSTEAD OF,可以检查一下你们手里XDF的笔记，老师如何写的就要认真去执行，第二THAT，看面的句子，THAT是FEAR后面的宾语，用THAT肯定对。XDF笔记里有THAT必须要是一种成分，否则THAT可以省略！

B) in the economy to avoid the recession, what many feared earlier in the year, rather to come 用WHAT来指代RECESSION一个词是不是有问题？！所以选B肯定不成立

C) in the economy’s ability to avoid the recession, something earlier in the year many had feared, and instead to come

看见ABILITY我就很反感，XDF老师说过尽量不要出现这些抽象名词，后面指代也不清楚，什么叫STH.

D) in the economy to avoid the recession many were fearing earlier in the year, and rather to come

XDF笔记里有时态不要乱改！WERE FEARING，很恐怖的！

E) that the economy will avoid the recession that was feared earlier this year by many, with it instead comi

XDF笔记好好看看，OG好好读读，就知道绝对不选被动了！呵呵！这样解释清楚了发！

Geoff didn't study law. Instead, he decided to become an actor.

If Jo can't attend the meeting, I could go instead.

问一下..

A, had feared

D. were fearing

E. was feared     

怎么分辨. 为什么OG中解释: were fearing "is wrong tense"?  was feared "is weak and wordy"?

感觉 were fearing 多别扭啊，正在害怕吗？

was feared   后面有个earlier in the year 不能用过去时

had feared 是从过去一直持续到earlier in the year  ，所以用过去完成时

 

个人理解

这里并不是rather than。而仅仅讨论的是instead和rather的区别。

区别就在于：instead可以表示一种对比。看柯林斯字典的解释：2
        [ADV] ADV with cl
If you do not do something, but do something else instead, you do the second thing and not the first thing, as the result of a choice or a change of behaviour.
而rather并没有表示对比的意思。还是见柯林斯字典的解释：2
        [ADV] ADV with cl/group
You use rather when you are correcting something that you have just said, especially when you are describing a particular situation after saying what it is not.
4
        [ADV] ADV adj/adv, ADV a n, ADV compar, ADV too adj/adv, ADV prep
You use rather to indicate that something is true to a fairly great extent, especially when you are talking about something unpleasant or undesirable.

5
        [ADV] ADV before v
You use rather before verbs that introduce your thoughts and feelings, in order to express your opinion politely, especially when a different opinion has been expressed.
I rather think he was telling the truth...

按照原文，是要表示一种对比，因此，rather不能代替instead.

当然，rather than是表示对比的意思，但是选项中并没有出现。还是见柯林斯字典的解释：

You use rather than when you are contrasting two things or situations. Rather than introduces the thing or situation that is not true or that you do not want.

还请仔细体会英文释义。

结合og解释和讨论的，给出个人遇见。

A 从第一个that到最后，引导宾语从句修饰confidence；第二that引导定语从句修饰，修饰recession。这个that在定语从句中是做宾语成分，但连词在定语从句中做宾语是可以省略的，这里没有省略是大家争论的焦点。没有答案到现在为止。这是正确答案，大家应该没有异议吧。

B what取代了第二个that,肯定错。the economy to avoid the recession is wordy and awkful,应该没有问题，在gmat中，不一定是一定错，而是和其他选项的比较问题，和A比较，确实没有A那么清晰。那个rather没有讨论出结果来。

C earlier in the year修饰sth,在原句中却是做状语修饰feared，套用白永的一句，改变原句的重心了。instead问题没有答案。

D 问题就在省不省第二个that.没有答案，还需要多总结，这是疑点。我有好的总结会第一时间传上来。后面的rather主要是因为，逗号隔开的and 后面要接完整的主谓结构。

E时态问题到目前为止解释不是那么完美，但也可以接受。这里的担忧是指earlier this year那段时期之前到earlier this year,现在有gain了，大家恢复信心了，还要担忧吗？

像confidence这样的抽象名词是不是后面一定要加that引导的同位语从句才行？这样子的话就很容易的排除掉BCD这三个选项了。望高人指点！

confidence in  sth.

LONGMAN:
Our first priority is to maintain the customer's confidence in our product.
The survey reveals a general lack of confidence in the police.
She had complete confidence in the young nurse.

confidence in sth. to do.. 一定错.

OG 解释中:　Ｂ，the economy to avoid the recession is AWKWARD AND UNCLEAR.  

C 中，　confidence in the economy's ability to...   改变句子重心．　　变成对..ability 有信心了．
