以下是引用shirley03cn在2006-2-13 6:25:00的发言：不知道大家有没有读过《GMAT30天》这本书，是一个老外写的。个人觉得不错，还在钻研当中，其中包括自己的总结分析和碰到的一些疑惑，希望能拿出来和大家一起探讨下。。。*^()^*
Q： Despite sophisticated computer models for assessing risk, such a model is nevertheless limited in their ability to define what risk is.
(A) Despite sophisticated computer models for assessing risk, such a model is nevertheless
(B) Sophisticated computer models, which assess risk, are nevertheless
(C) Despite their sophistication, computer models for assessing risk are
(D)Assessment of risk can be achieved with sophisticated computer models, but these sophisticated computer models are
(E) Assessing risk with sophisticated computer models is limited because such models are
分析：
(A) 这道题有两个错误：前后单复数不一致，“sophisticated computer models”和“a model is”; 无效表达，前后分句结构不一致。
(B) 与题目原意有分歧。题目限定了在所有sophisticated computer models中assess risk的那一群models. 而此选项并未限定sophisticated computer models. 是指所有sophisticated computer models. （疑惑中，不知道怎么分析好。。。）
(C) key
(D) grammar正确，但是用了被动，句子不如(C)来得效果好。（疑惑中。。。）
Assessment of risk 把动词形式改成名词形式表达不好，罗嗦不简洁。
(E) 与原句有分歧，原句是sophisticated computer models为主语，is limited in their ability而非assessing risk
Q：Those of the legislators opposing the swampland protection bill have only theirselves to blame for the plight of the endangered black thrush bird.
(A) of the legislators opposing the swampland protection bill have only theirselves
(B) legislators, who oppose the swampland protection bill, have only themselves
(C) legislators opposed to the swampland protection bill have only themselves
(D) ***
(E) ***
分析：
(A) 反身代词错误，Those of the legislators opposing 语法正确，但是语句不够精练。”of the” 显得多余
(B) 我的问题是这里是不是与上一题中的(B)犯了一样的错误，并未限定Legislators？
我觉得原因是-ed作主语补语较从句简洁。继续讨论！
(C) key. 纠正了theirselves, 去除了多余部分。
(D),(E)有明显错误，省略了
下面3句，我是连蒙带猜做的，想听听大家的思路和分析。
Q：By imposing artificial restrictions in price on oil suppliers, these suppliers will be forced to lower production costs.
(A) By imposing artificial restrictions in price on oil suppliers, these suppliers will be forced
(B) Imposing artificial price restrictions on oil suppliers will force these suppliers
(C) By imposing on oil suppliers artificial price restrictions, these suppliers will be forced
(D) ***
(E) ***
原句主要错误是？
A，按原句，by imposing的主语为these suppliers，错误，而且被动态没有明确施动者。继续讨论！
Key: B
Q：The California gold rush, the historical development instilling the greatest sense of manifest destiny in the populace, wore not the clothing of political ideology but rather a suit spun of gold and greed.
(A) The California gold rush, the historical development instilling the greatest sense of manifest destiny in the populace, wore not the clothing of political ideology but rather a suit spun of gold and greed.平行结构很舒服，GMAT的偏爱。
(B) The historical development which most greatly instilled a sense of manifest destiny in the populace wore not the clothing of political ideology but instead a suit spun of gold and greed; it was the California gold rush. （感觉结构不好）
1.逻辑有误，原句是The California gold rush wore not...but...，B变成The historical development wore not...but...
2. Idiom，not...but rather...符合习惯
3. 分号前后的联系不密切。
4. most 与greatly重复。
继续讨论！
(C) The historical development most instilling in the populace a sense of manifest destiny was the California gold rush, wearing a suit of greed and gold, not the clothing of political ideology. (感觉前半句怪怪的“most instilling in the populace a sense”)
1.改变句子重心了
2.wearing a suit of greed and gold, not the clothing of political ideology划线部分不知道是什么成分。
继续讨论！！
(D) It was the California gold rush, not the clothing of political ideology, but rather a suit spun of gold and greed, that most greatly instilled in the populace a sense of manifest destiny. (句意有与原句有分歧)
1. 逻辑意思有误，漏原句的动词wore。
2. that 引导的修饰错误，修饰了a suit spun of gold and greed
继续讨论！！
(E) The greatest sense of manifest destiny in the populace was instilled by the California gold rush, which historical development wore a suit of gold and greed rather than the clothing of political ideology. (句意有与原句有分歧)
1. 主动改被动。
2.which historical development 表达错
继续讨论！！
此题思路是是么？怎么推到原句是best的，我做的时候就觉得原句读得很复杂，意思也有点混淆，比较其他选项，想了半天。不知道大家和我想得一样吗？
Key: A
Q：The media often hasten to malign celebrities who have come into sudden and unexpected prominence, whether they be actors, musicians, or some other high-profile vocation.
(A) they be actors, musicians, or some other high-profile vocation.
(B) their vocation be acting, music, or some other high-profile vocation
(C) they are actors, or musicians, or some other high-profile vocation
(D) they are actors, are musicians, or in some other high-profile vocation
(E) ***
此题是平行结构错误，前两者是指人，他是演员，音乐家，但是最后一个不能说他是其他高姿态的职业，还有“be”用的不对。可是(B), 读的时候怪怪的，为何要这么改？“acting”在这里是n.,表演的意思？ 我是用排除法得出B的，呵呵~~~
Key: B
其他的平行都不对，只有B的平行对，B也没有错的地方。their vocation （should）be acting, music, or some other high-profile vocation，应该是这样省略了。
继续讨论！！
btw, 如果以前有类似的考点总结，如果大家看到之前的帖子有总结到我这几道题目的，麻烦能PASTE网址给我。谢谢！！！
