56.   In a plan to stop the erosion of East Coast beaches, the Army Corps of Engineers proposed building parallel to shore a breakwater of rocks that would rise six feet above the waterline and act as a buffer, so that it absorbs the energy of crashing waves and protecting the beaches.

这题是前几天刚刚做过的，但是竟然在选择的时候又变得无从下手。看了解释以后才知道ETS的思路是if从句中主句用将来时，从句用一般现在时（初中的语法）。如果从这个角度出发，选B是毫无疑问的。

疑问题：CR35,

虽然已经是第二遍做OG，正确率已经不是很有参考性，但是按照格式还是将其贴出来。

这些题目虽然都已经熟悉，但是明显感觉SC的T在下手的时候还是不太有把握，相比较而言RC和CR的T要有把握的多，目前还不知道这是什么原因。

 

最难题：SC90,OG
                

90.   The peaks of a mountain range, acting like rocks in a streambed, produce ripples in the air flowing over them; the resulting flow pattern, with crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are known as “standing waves.”

(A) crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are

(B) crests and troughs that remain stationary although they are formed by rapidly moving air, are

(C) crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, is

(D) stationary crests and troughs although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are

(E) stationary crests and troughs although they are formed by rapidly moving air, is 

这道题,错了, 当时一看E的字数少就选了.看了cd上的讨论链接，里面引用了og10的解释:
"Such dependent clauses can only occur in the predicates of full clauses.”

这即是说在E 中, WITH stationary crests and troughs although they are formed by rapidly moving air, ALTHOUGH 引导的句子是在介词WITH 的结构中, 而我们知道ALTHOUGH 引导的都是相对另外一个主谓结构的句子而言(上一句的中文意思), 直白的说ALTHOUGH 的前后应该是主谓结构的句子, 在C 中, that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly
ALTHOUGH 引导的句子是相对于REMAIN 这一主谓结构, 避免了该错误.

不知道这样理解对否？

疑问题：SC99, OG

99.   Just as reading Samuel Pepys’s diary gives a student a sense of the seventeenth century—of its texture and psyche—so Jane Freed’s guileless child‑narrator takes the operagoer inside turn-of-the‑ century Vienna.

(A) so Jane Freed’s guileless child narrator takes the operagoer

(B) so listening to Jane Freed’s guileless child narrator takes the operagoer

(C) so the guileless child narrator of Jane Freed takes the operagoer

(D) listening to Jane Freed’s guileless child narrator takes the operagoer

(E) Jane Freed’s guileless child narrator takes the operagoer to her opera

看到答案解释时感到无语~~~~~~~~看来就背下“just as......so......"的用法吧
