1.generalization这种抽象名词，后面是用of还是用that修饰是有区别的

用of是强调of后面紧跟的成分，一般只能接简单的名词成分；用that是强调其后的一个整体，可能是一个过程、一个动作。

因为这类词大多数情况下都是要指一个比较复杂的过程，所以基本上都是选that的。把该用that修饰的硬改成用of修饰，然后后面接一个名词+动名词之类的复杂修饰，是GMAT语法中的一个常用的干扰项。当然，还要结合具体句意具体分析。

此题中明显是强调存在很小的差异，所以是用that

2.there being必错！

为什么？就是因为there being基本都用于此题这种乱七八糟的干扰项，还有就是用于逻辑主语的干扰项。反正有它基本就可以直接排除

我就知道这些：）
