207        Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a late nineteenth-century feminist, called for urban apartment houses including child-care facilities and clustered suburban houses including communal eating and social facilities.

(A) including child-care facilities and clustered suburban houses including communal eating and social facilities

(B) that included child-care facilities, and for clustered suburban houses to include communal eating and social facilities

(C) with child-care facilities included and for clustered suburban houses to include communal eating and social facilities

(D) that included child-care facilities and for clustered suburban houses with communal eating and social facilities

(E) to include child-care facilities and for clustered suburban houses with communal eating and social facilities included

答案给的是D，但我觉得D并不满足平行结构的要求。相比之下，似乎A更符合。

 

214      Climatic shifts are so gradual as to be indistinguishable at first from ordinary fluctuations in the weather.

(A) so gradual as to be indistinguishable

(B) so gradual they can be indistinguishable

(C) so gradual that they are unable to be distinguished

(D) gradual enough not to be distinguishable

(E) gradual enough so that one cannot distinguish them

答案给的是A。但我记得OG上说了， so... as to已经很少用了。 我选了C，考虑到so...that的用法。

219    Congress is debating a bill requiring certain employers provide workers with unpaid leave so as to care for sick or newborn children.

(A) provide workers with unpaid leave so as to

(B) to provide workers with unpaid leave so as to

(C) provide workers with unpaid leave in order that they

(D) to provide workers with unpaid leave so that they can

(E) provide workers with unpaid leave and

答案D。但我觉得D存在歧义，they可以指employers也可以指workers

谢谢！

A is wrong

 called
                    for urban apartment houses including child-care facilities
                

including , can modify either  called
            , or urban apartment houses  歧义

214

 这里可以用so  +adj+ as to+verb,  只有一个主语在前面

这个结构是so...as to 在gmat里面唯一个正确结构。so as 在一起，必错

用so that 的时候，主要是表示一种结果。这里用so that, wordy

219

这道题也是考so that ,so as to

前后主语不同，只能用so that

they 不会造成歧义
