T8,是不是答案错了.应该选D,如果选A,缺主语了.这样会歧义的.

T14,有点糊涂啊.

predict ... to do something不好，明显有歧义，注意predict这个词及物动词，它的宾语应该是要predict的内容，所以一般要接一个that的宾语从句才能很好的表达.也就是说不是predict processes, 而是predict后面的一个句子表示的现象

8. Contrary to the scholarly wisdom of the 1950’s and early 1960’s that predicted the processes of modernization and rationalization would gradually undermine it, ethnicity is a worldwide phenomenon of increasing importance.
(A) would gradually undermine it
(B) to be a gradual undermining of it
(C) would be a gradual undermining of ethnicity
(D) to gradually undermine ethnicity
(E) gradually undermining it
Key: a.
I am wondering:
(1) a 中的宾语从句中并没有一定要出现的that
(2) a 中it 指代模糊

My key: D.
那d 错在哪里呢？
我认为  the processes of modernization and rationalization would gradually undermine it是predicted的宾语从句，主语是the scholarly wisdom ，这样划线部分一定的有完整的谓语，因此选a

T8： 同意13楼的观点。有predict sth to do的说法么？ 好像只见过predict sth，加动名词和加从句的。找了找书，没有predict sth to do的例子。
排除法：A， C predict 加从句
B， D， predict sth to do
E， predict sth doing

A，C， E 用it， B，D用ethnicity
我会先排除BDE
C中简化后变成modernization and rationalization would be a undermining 显然没有 would undermine 好。 所以选A

我也不喜欢那个it，只读前半句绝对指代不清，不过想想那可不是一句话呀. 如果抹去从that 到逗号Contrary to  the scholarly wisdom of ...， ethnicity is .... 这个句子是意思完整不变的。换句话说，抹去的部分可有可无，用ethnicity代it反而觉得累赘。

14.  With cloning technology, scientists are approaching what has long been the ultimate goal of modern husbandry: achieving a consistency of quality and production in farm animals as once thought to be limited to manufactured goods.
(A) achieving a consistency of quality and production in farm animals as once thought to be
(B) achieving farm animals with a consistency of quality and production as were once thought of as
(C) achieving in farm animals a consistency of quality and production that was once thought to be
(D) achievement of farm animals whose consistency of quality and production are the same as what were once thought to he
(E) achievement of farm animals at a consistency of quality and production once thought of as
Key: c.

对于14题: 我是首先看是 achievement of 或者是achieving 什么， 是farm animals 还是 a consistency of ... 显然 consistency 是目标，排除B D E。
A C 前面没区别， 后半段 a：as once thought to be 显然省了主语是人但as前面是找不到人的。 C恰好用被动语态。

17.  Asset allocators create portfolios, often in the form of  of mutual funds, with the intention to turn in good results in both “bull” and “bear” markets.
(A) with the intention
(B) the intention of which is
(C) intended
(D) and intending
(E) so intended as

key: c.

我拿不准但可能蒙对。排除法很容易剩A C。觉得都可以，但with一般是表示伴随的状态，另外我不喜欢"the", 为什么不用“a” 或者什么都不用呢？ 所以会选c。

我还有一个疑问，intended to究竟修饰哪个，Asset allocators还是 portfolios？从逻辑意义上来讲，应该是人设计投资组合，意图去获得好结果，准确的讲，是人intend to do.所以我觉得ying应该用intending to,而不是intended to.
