2)a survey indicates that the company may not only boost their present sales, but also broaden their potential market.

This one is very puzzling. If we do not consider that "their" should be  say 1 is better, because I feel ;may not only; in 2 is not clear. But I am not sure if 倒装可以出现在宾语从句中 as 1

agree. 1)

I think there are no difference between A and B, HELP DO =HELP TO DO;
SEE OG
216. Many policy experts say that shifting a portion of health-benefit costs back to the workers helps to control the employer's costs, but also helps to limit medical spending by making patients more careful consumers.
A.    helps to control the employer's costs, but also helps
B.    helps the control of the employer's costs, and also
C.    not only helps to control the employer's costs, but also helps
D.    helps to control not only the employer's costs, but
E.    not only helps to control the employer's costs, and also helps
Choice C, the best answer

236. The Coast Guard is conducting tests to see whether pigeons can be trained to help find survivors of wrecks at sea.
A.    to see whether pigeons can be trained to help find
B.    to see whether pigeons can be trained as help to find
C.    to see if pigeons can be trained for helping to find
D.    that see if pigeons are able to be trained in helping to find
E.    that see whether pigeons are able to be trained for help in finding
Choice A, the best answer

I think "it" is probably wrong if we can see the whole sentence. I mean, if the remained sentence also include "it " and the two"it" refer to different things,the choice may be wrong.

如果REPRESENTING修饰的不是DICOVERY,那它修饰什么呢?
如果是修饰DICOVERY,那用WHICH语意也通

同意littlebluesk 和sbbi，我觉得这个JJ不完整。
就这里给出的线索无法解题。

请gemj兄对另外2题也发表宝贵意见!谢谢

35.
company作复数时的意思是: those members of a partnership firm whose names do not appear in the firm name
这个题目里好象不是这个意思。
如果忽略这个，我觉得2)比1)好。因为它满足平行、对称的要求。

34. it应该没问题. make it possible for sb to do sth

29.
首先，我同意SBBI的：

以下是引用sbbi在2003-9-22 21:06:00的发言：
i believe "in nk" intrudes between discovery and 'of', unless the object of 'of' is very long

下面的例句中出现的discovery of sth in somewhere结构是佐证（所有的阅读与逻辑中也只有这三个！），从语感上，这也比较通顺。我没有找到discovery in somewhere of sth的结构。

The recent discovery of dinosaur fossils in the northern arctic, however, has led a number of researchers to conclude that at least some dinosaurs might have been warm-blooded.

But there is genuine imaginative re-creation in her accounts of the walk in Green Heys Fields, of tea at the Bartons’ house, and of John Barton and his friend’s discovery of the starving family in the cellar in the chapter “Poverty and Death.”

This view was seriously challenged in the 1980s by the discovery of large amounts of iridium in a layer of clay deposited at the end of the Cretaceous period.

其次，我同意ruthere的下述观点：

以下是引用ruthere在2003-9-22 23:27:00的发言：
(2) 的which指的是nk, 不通. 如果指的是discovery, 语意也不通.

的确，WHICH不管指代谁，都不符合逻辑。我又查了WM中“represent”作为动词的11层意思，没有能说得通的。

最后，我认为representing four species of animals like cats, indicates that the animal survives …是作状语，虽然现在分词作状语一般放在句首或句尾，放在中间时错误的多，而且就算正确时也容易诞生歧义，但不是说不能放在句中。下面的这个句子（出张道真“实用英语语法”）就是例证（虽然这个例子并不能很好地证明我们所讨论的题目）：
The youngsters, shouldering spades and hoes, left merrily for the fields.

综上所述，我认为这几个选项中，A最好。不知大侠们意见如何？

2)a survey indicates that the company may not only boost their present sales, but also broaden their potential market.

This one is very puzzling. If we do not consider that "their" should be "its", I'd say 1 is better, because I feel "may not only" in 2 is not clear. But I am not sure if 倒装可以出现在宾语从句中 as 1
又注:现在觉得2好.1是有些不对称."not only may the company"倒装后,我认为"but also"必须领一句话.(不知这么想对不对?).
2应该没毛病.

是的，Not only在句首倒装时，but also (或but，下面的例子都是but，难道是巧合？)后面一律是接完整的句子。
从句法上分析，Not only与but also后面的内容要平行对称。既然Not only在句首，它就是引导整个句子，这就要求but also后面也要跟完整的句子。
从这个意义上说，也是2）对。

Not only are liver transplants never rejected, but they even induce a state of donor-specific unresponsiveness in which subsequent transplants of other organs, such as skin, from that donor are accepted permanently.

William G. McLaughlin has recently argued that not only did Cherokee culture flourish during and after the 1820s, but the Cherokee themselves actively and continually reshaped their culture.

Not only are liver transplants never rejected, but they even induce a state of donor-specific unresponsiveness in which subsequent transplants of other organs, such as skin, from that donor are accepted permanently.

Not only are mature yews very rare, but most are located in areas where logging is prohibited to protect the habitat of the endangered spotted owl.

Not only does it speed up production, but it also assures quality.
