一道用Same...as...结构的题

goodboyed

11.   Marketing researchers have found that, because many residents of the Southeast do not share the same ethnic heritage as Northeasterners, the two varieties of commercially prepared coleslaw most popular in New York City and Boston are virtually ignored by consumers in Richmond and Raleigh.

(A) because many residents of the Southeast do not share the same ethnic heritage as

(B) because many residents of the Southeast do not share the same ethnic heritage with

(C) because many residents of the Southeast do not have the same ethnic heritage as

(D) due to many residents of the Southeast not sharing the same ethnic heritage with（C）

(E) whereas many residents of the Southeast do not share the same ethnic heritage as

我当时选的是B，不知错在哪里。

同时C里的the same A as B，这个结构，请问需要是性质一致的对象吗？我当时觉得heritage和Northeasterners不是一类东西，不能比。

请各位多多指教阿

B，根据逻辑意思来判断，民族遗产是不能分享的，而是拥有相同的民族遗产，share的使用不符合逻辑

C中的比较应该是 many residents of the Southeast 与 Northeasterners比较

个人意见！

goodboyed

Share除了分享外，还有same的意思的，B我觉得可能是因为share ... with ... 和Same表示的都是same的意思，所以是redundant。不确定，供讨论

C我后来查了一下词典，确实如你所说Same...as...的用法比的不是as前后的东西，而是主语和as 后面的东西。词典中的例句：

same as
He gets the same pay as me but he gets his own office.

看来我是被GMAT的平行结构搞得神经过敏了

我又找了大全注释对这个题的解释，你可以下载大全注释，对很多题前人已经有过研究的。

1)B不如C，是因为B中share和the same的同时使用会在介词使用上产生矛盾(share with, the same as)，难以两全。C用have很巧妙地回避了这个矛盾。

补充:

share the same sth. as…这个表达本身可能并不算错, 例句如下:

1. Mongolian herdsmen of today share the same lifestyle as those their ancestors have practiced since time immemorial.

2. The alternative sources of information mentioned in the passage would probably not share the same views as the State Department. (逻辑大全)

第一句意思表达清楚, 但第2句可能是有点毛病的, 如同本题的A, 把A还原:

residents of the Southeast do not share the same ethnic heritage as Northeasterners (share)

翻译residents of the Southeast不会共享ethnic heritage, 而这个ethnic heritage是Northeasterners共享的。

问题在Northeasterners (share), Northeasterners和谁share, 这里表达不清, 因为前面提到residents of the Southeast是do not share的。

如果这句是residents of the Southeast share the same ethnic heritage as Northeasterners (share), 就比较好理解了。

而C补全应该是: residents of the Southeast do not have the same ethnic heritage as(ethnic heritage) Northeasterners have

这样从意思上看应该是C好于A。

have the same … as的例句:

1. Why can't girls have the same uniform as boys

2. I too have the same problem as the note of 12/7/04

share the same的例句

1. While in most species with asymmetries virtually all adults share the same asymmetry, members of the starry flounder species can be either left-eyed (both eyes on the left side of head) or right-eyed.

2. The writings of Eugenio Fernandez Mendez clearly exemplify this tradition, and many supporters of Puerto Rico’s commonwealth status share the same universalizing orientation.

逻辑大全中的例子：

1. The painted spider spins webs that are much stickier than the webs spun by the other species of spiders that share the same habitat.

2. Whenever two classes of organisms share the same environment, members of one class will differ from members of the other class in several external body features.

3. As a result of advancing technology and global communication we will someday all share the same culture and the same values.

谢谢carolhide，我昨天刚刚看到大全注释，已经马上下载了，谢谢你帮我贴出来。

看上述讨论，感觉B是错在介词用错了，应该用as,而不是with，似乎：

have/share the same ... as ... 都是可以的，

不知我理解的对不对？

应该就是这个意思吧，不过ETS会尽量避免这种到底用哪个介词好的问题的出现，所以就避开这个用法直接用have啦。我个人的想法。
