讨论Prep 155 (Findjuh版本）的解体思路

iflyagain

155. The bones of Majungatholus atopus, a meat-eating dinosaur that is a distant relative of Tyrannosaurus rex and closely resembles South American predatory dinosaurs, have been discovered in Madagascar.

A.      The bones of Majungatholus atopus, a meat-eating dinosaur that is a distant relative of Tyrannosaurus rex and closely resembles South American predatory dinosaurs, have been discovered in Madagascar.

B.      The bones of a meat-eating dinosaur, Majungatholus atopus, a distant relative of Tyrannosaurus rex and with a close resemblance to South American predatory dinosaurs, has been discovered in Madagascar.

C.      In Madagascar, the bones of a meat-eating dinosaur, Majungatholus atopus, distantly related to Tyrannosaurus rex and closely resembled South American predatory dinosaurs, have been discovered.

D.     A distant relative of Tyrannosaurus rex, bearing a close resemblance to South American predatory dinosaurs is Majungatholus atopus, a meat-eating dinosaur, the bones of which have been discovered in Madagascar.

E.      A distant relative of Tyrannosaurus rex and closely resembling South American predatory dinosaurs, the bones of meat-eating dinosaur, Majungatholus atopus, have been discovered in Madagascar.

答案是A。我想问一下关于C的解题思路，同时A也有点困惑。下面是我的看法

A)      有点疑问，a meat-eating dinosaur that，为什么可以用that? 应该用which阿。这里的a meat-eating dinosaur就是代表一类恐龙，不应该用that的阿。

C) 我不是很确定C错在哪里。我想了两点，请NN确认一下。

1. 这点是fundjuh写的，distantly related改变原文句意，
            我不是很明白这个意思。我觉得应该这样表达，distantly related to 和 closely resembled照C选项这样放好像有修饰the bones的嫌疑（因为bones是全句的主语，优先修饰主语，才修饰临近的Majungatholus atopus），所以这样用不好，应该用A选项的定语从句表达；

2。第二点就是地点状语，in madagascar不应该脱离discovered而前置，这样有修饰bones的嫌疑

基本同意lz看法， 我的解题思路是：

动词单复数	the bones of…+动词单数， b错
优先原则	动词优于名词， resemble > a close resemblance， b,d错
词性变化使意思错	a distant relative改为distantly related to.., c错
同位语	a distant relative, the bones of..同位语不是同一个事物， e错
句子重心	d选项句子重心错， 原句主句变成非限定从句
修饰词位置	地点状语in M位置改变，导致修饰不清， c错！

我觉得应该这样表达，distantly related to 和 closely resembled照C选项这样放好像有修饰the bones的嫌疑（因为bones是全句的主语，优先修饰主语，才修饰临近的Majungatholus atopus），所以这样用不好，应该用A选项的定语从句表达；

这个看法我也赞成，但是在考场上做题很难在有限时间里把句意理解到这个程度，实际做题时看到distantly related to就会觉得不能准确表达原句a distant relative的意思，所以fundjuh说distantly related改变原文句意，迅速排除c选项，也是做题时的套路。（基本上，在考试时大部分题目都是根据语法点和一些出题者的preference迅速排除，只有在2个选项无法排除其中一个的时候才进一步看句意）

有些是effective 的错误，所以要在选项间不断比较，找一个最effective又没有corrective错误的选项才行。。这题有一半是effective 的错误。

嘿嘿，同意，谢谢。

关于你说的最后一点，。（基本上，在考试时大部分题目都是根据语法点和一些出题者的preference迅速排除，只有在2个选项无法排除其中一个的时候才进一步看句意）。我以前也是这样操作的，可是做了prep后，不敢了。像上面那题，A选项我一看到that就踢掉了。还有一道these单独指代的也是（贴在下面），吃了几次亏。只有很小一部分知识点可以用来大胆排除选项，其他的没有掌握好ETS对错误程度preference，还是不要一次性排除。

不知道现在是不是太小心了，还是被prep的风格搞怕了，现在每次我都坚持把题目读完，从而构成对题目整体感的把握。这样有时候可以根据逻辑性排除很多通过语法不容易排除的选项。但牺牲的是单位做题诗间

139. Besides adding complementary flavors to many foods, hot sauces stimulate the release of endorphins in the brain, just as exercise does, and these have a pain-relieving effect like morphine's.

A. hot sauces stimulate the release of endorphins in the brain, just as exercise does, and these have a pain-relieving effect like morphine's

B. hot sauces stimulate the release of endorphins in the brain, like exercise, and they have a pain-relieving effect that is like morphine

C. hot sauces and exercise both stimulate the release of endorphins in the brain, and they have a pain-relieving effect like morphine

D. the release of endorphins in the brain is stimulated both by hot sauces and exercise, and they have a pain-relieving effect like morphine's

E. the release of endorphins in the brain is stimulated by hot sauces, just as with exercise, and these have a pain-relieving effect like that of morphine

答案是A

我觉得被prep搞怕了，是因为没有熟悉prep，也可以说是新题型的出题思路。 我开始做prep的时候也有这种感觉。所以要进一步熟悉新考点和出题者的preference。你举的139题是个很好的例子，以前these单独做主语我也是当corrective的绝对错误排除的，做139题时，我首先排除了a选项，但是发现其他选项的corrective错误更加不可犯，所以我又回头看了a，最后还是选了a。下面是我139题的解题思路：

永远错	this, that, those, these不能单独作句子主语， 也不能单独放在介词后面， 这里竟然允许these单独做句子主语！！！
永远错	unlike/like+n 表比较，不能放在句中。b错
比较结构	b选项 effect that is like morphine, effect和morphine不可比， b错
逻辑主语	介词+v-ing，逻辑主语与主句一致．　 Ｃ主语是hot sauces and exercise ，意思错， Ｄ，Ｅ同样错！

不知道现在是不是太小心了，还是被prep的风格搞怕了，现在每次我都坚持把题目读完，从而构成对题目整体感的把握。这样有时候可以根据逻辑性排除很多通过语法不容易排除的选项。但牺牲的是单位做题诗间

我现在做题也一定先读完题干，（发现之前不读完题干，有些不应该犯的错误也容易犯）然后用语法点+出题者偏好排除，然后才是逻辑意思。（这种解题方法一定要在自己有对出题者偏好理解的基础上才能很好运用，所以要总结）赫赫，请注意我的回帖里是写，进一步看句意。（在运用语法点之前已经要对句意有个大概的把握了）也许这样才能在准确性和做题时间之间找一个适当的平衡

E. the release of endorphins in the brain is stimulated by hot sauces, just as with exercise, and these have a pain-relieving effect like that of morphine

答案是A

咱们多交流吧，我总结了prep笔记的172题，基本上把所有选项的错误都拉了出来。同时尽量把corrective和effective的错误也区分开。但是肯定不可能没有错误，希望大家多讨论，一起提高。

哥么，后天就上战场了。下了考场咱们沟通，这两天没时间上MSN了．我的MSN: zhangjun_jeff(A) hotmail.com

Findjuh的PrepSC我觉得还是有不少还可以改进的地方．
