50题答案应该是a,说几分之机的时候，一定要连在一起，所以b把three out of four分开，错误；c中的错误改变句子重心，原句强调的是人拥有自行车，现在变成强调了自行车。在gmat中，只有在强调动作的被执行，并且出现执行者的情况下，才可能使用被动，在og上有例句，可以注意以下；d主纬不一致，e错误同b，并且前半部分不知所云。
这种类型的题目，从词组搭配，句意，和主谓一致考虑。

53：find后面宾语从句，abc无that错，e种that+be+adj典型罗索，错

60：a,b,c,e都是歧义：A注意可以理解成demand, congestion, and trip或者就是demand for (housing,congestion and trip), 其余几个也都是这个毛病，d把demand放到最后，排除起义，最佳。

非常感谢大家的回答。特别是ricesu同学。我基本懂了。
但还有一个问题是 谁能就60题解释一下all but 的用法。有点笨的说。
