102. Except for a concert performance that the composer himself staged in 1911, Scott Joplin’s ragtime opera Treemonisha was not produced until 1972, sixty-one years after its completion.

(A) Except for a concert performance that the composer himself staged

(B) Except for a concert performance with the composer himself staging it

(C) Besides a concert performance being staged by the composer himself

(D) Excepting a concert performance that the composer himself staged（A）

(E) With the exception of a concert performance with the staging done by the composer himself

查了以前的帖子，还是没有明白。

请教E选项里的错误到究竟有哪些？

E选项冗长罗嗦，except for 很简洁， with the exception of ...罗嗦。

手快呀，又上一贴，上次你考完了，还等你分享数学怎么复习呢 LENA坐着板凳等呢，你老人家，没影了，

两个WITH，需有AND 连接， 也不平行，EXCEPTION ,STAGING. 还有DONE背动，不过这个不是决对的。反正这题我要做的话，意思就不想看了。

虽然快要考了，时间好像不够用了，但是今天早上还是花了很多时间看了下面的贴子。看完我流泪了，如果姐妹们有时间可以看一下。从今天开始，再也不买法国的包包，碧欧泉全部扔掉！抵制法货！

刚上来准备问数学题的，看了LENA的帖子，全程流泪。。。不离开祖国真的不会有这样强烈的感情！昨天看到一好友的博客，是写的来自三番的报道，照片上的五星红旗象海一样，激动得我热泪滚滚。。。朋友说她已经报名参加NYC的保护和火炬，支持祖国奥运的游行，还说要带辣椒水去，见一个ZD泼一个，见一对泼一双。。。NND，赶紧考完看看俺能做点什么不

一道PREP数学求教：

一个调查某镇每个人平均每周看电视的小时数，调查结果是a mean of 21 hours and a standard deviation of 6 hours，PETER上周看电视数between 1 and 2 deviations below the mean，问PETER上周看电视小时数可能是哪一个

30,20,18,12,6

我总是对这类题搞不清，应该是对标准差的理解问题吧

MM考完试，心情不爽，躲到一边哭去了

数学因为1战时复习了挺多，主要做了CXD，和一些JJ，还有本GWD出的一本数学书，那时觉得数学怎么那么难啊 ！二战时（羞愧啊）没做别的就做了JJ。不过上个月考试数学挺简单的，但是我比较粗心，还是没上51。汗一个！

不过，做数学就是多想想，Gmat数学不像中国考数学是考逻辑推理，G的数学感觉好多时候是在斗心眼，看你心眼多不多过Gmat，呵呵，这都是废话！

大家估计都比我数学好啊~肯定没问题的

Lena，D中如果说 land 曾经存在好像也不太通啊？

E 中existing 现在分词有一直持续的含义吗？这个问题有点土~~

还有我觉得是不是现在分词在句尾，或者表示伴随谓语动词，或者是表示结果，是不是从这个角度理解啊?

三个MM，三个完全不同的解答，彻底晕掉

是的，有题目中提到可以跳跃修饰前面的bridge，但是我查了一下所有的题目，如果单考这个名词的修饰，肯定是修饰末尾词。举个prep的例子。

The list of animals that
            exhibits a preference of either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include the lower vertebrates.

 

(A) exhibits a preference of either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include

(B) exhibits the preference to use either the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded and includes

(C) exhibit a preference in either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include

(D) exhibit a preference for using either the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded to include

(E) exhibit the preference as to either using the right or the left hand (i.e., claw, paw, or foot) has been expanded and includes

这里的animals后面的that是限定，所以不是修饰list而是修饰animal。所以考到限定的主谓一致一定是修饰紧跟名词。

再看这道，一样的考点！一定要记住啊。

With a new park, stadium, and entertainment complex along the Delaware River, Trenton, New Jersey, is but one of a large number of communities that is looking to use its waterfront as a way for it to improve the quality of urban life and attract new businesses.

 

(A) is looking to use its waterfront as a way for it to improve the quality of urban life and attract

(B) is looking at using its waterfront to improve the quality of urban life and attract

(C) are looking to use their waterfronts to improve the quality of urban life and attract

(D) are looking to use its waterfront as a way of improving the quality of urban life and attracting

(E) are looking at using their waterfronts as a way of improving the quality of urban life and attract

所以我很负责地跟各位ＭＭ说，that引导的限定一定是限制紧跟名词的。

英台的那题里，that是指land，就是大陆桥的大陆曾经出现过。

关于分词修饰，英台说的主动和被动是一个方面，另一个方面，过去分词表示一种结束的状态，而现在分词表示的是一直持续的状态，一直存的感觉。在修饰名词的时候，一般ＥＴＳ有两种方法，一种分词做后置修饰，一种是用定语从句，他很喜欢混在一起考，区别就是现在分词表示持续状态，而定语从句表示解释，通常是一次性的动作。

看这题

In 1997, despite an economy that marked its sixth full year of uninterrupted expansion with the lowest jobless rate in a quarter century, the number of United States citizens declaring themselves bankrupt has jumped by almost 20 percent, at 1.34 million.

 

(A) declaring themselves bankrupt has jumped by almost 20 percent, at

(B) declaring themselves bankrupt jumped by almost 20 percent, to

(C) who declared themselves bankrupt has jumped by almost 20 percent, to

(D) who declared themselves bankrupt jumped almost by 20 percent, at

(E) to declare themselves bankrupt jumped almost by 20 percent, at

为什么这里用现在分词而不用定语从句，因为表示了一种持续的感觉...可以细细体会一下之间的区别。

还有这道

In the mid-1920s the Hawthorne Works of the Western Electric Company was the scene of an intensive series of experiments that would investigate changes in working conditions as to their effects on workers' performance.

 

(A) that would investigate changes in working conditions as to their effects on workers' performance

(B) investigating the effects that changes in working conditions would have on workers' performance

(C) for investigating what the effects on workers' performance are that changes in working conditions would cause

(D) that investigated changes in working conditions' effects on workers' performance

(E)
        to investigate what the effects changes in working conditions would have on workers' performance

是不是１２呀？

16. Minnesota is the only one of the contiguous forty-eight states that still has a sizable wolf population, and where this predator remains the archenemy of cattle and sheep.

(A) that still has a sizable wolf population, and where

(B) that still has a sizable wolf population, where

(C) that still has a sizable population of wolves, and where

(D) where the population of wolves is still sizable;

(E) where there is still a sizable population of wolves and where

E中的where...where...从句是状语从句还是定语从句阿？OG的11解释上说where从句是修饰Minnesota，MM帮忙解释一下好吗？

其实都一样，因为当中是用be动词连的。。。。Ａ is B....修饰谁都一样。。。对不？是定语从句。。。。其实定语还是状语无所谓的，因为就是代表一个从句在主语中起到的作用，理解成状语或者定语都不影响解题的吧。。。
