1.        A fire in an enclosed space burns with the aid of reflected radiation that preheats the fuel, making ignition much easier and flames spreading more quickly.

(A) flames spreading

(B) flame spreads

(C) flames are caused to spread

(D) causing flames to spread（D）

(E) causing spreading of the flames

关于这题，我也有一个疑问：flames可不可以和ignation并列，都是做make的宾语呢？making ignition and flames..?

1.        A firm that specializes in the analysis of handwriting claims from a one-page writing sample that it can assess more than three hundred personality traits, including enthusiasm, imagination, and ambition.

(A) from a one-page writing sample that it can assess

(B) from a one-page writing sample it has the ability of assessing

(C) the ability, from a one-page writing sample, of assessing

(D) to be able, from a one-page writing sample, to assess（D）

(E) being able to assess, from a one-page writing sample,

这题也是很纳闷。。A句，在GMAT考试中很多情况下可以跳跃修饰的，所以that直接修饰claims。。难道A句的错误就是it指代不明吗？

是不是使人会误会修饰 sample呢？

1.        A controversial figure throughout most of his public life, the Black leader Marcus Garvey advocated that some Blacks return to Africa, the land that, to him, symbolized the possibility of freedom.

(A) that some Blacks return to Africa, the land that, to him, symbolized the possibility of freedom

(B) that some Blacks return to the African land symbolizing the possibility of freedom to him

(C) that some Blacks return to Africa which was the land which symbolized the possibility of freedom to him

(D) some Black’s returning to Africa which was the land that to him symbolized the possibility of freedom（A）

(E) some Black’s return to the land symbolizing the possibility of freedom to him, Africa

这题，我不知道B错在哪里？按照语法也是对的，但是是不是改变了原句子的意思？我们说的是非洲这块大陆，泛指，但是B句子是说明了这非洲土地，特指？

A使用了同位句形式非常好，但是B用了ing的形式做定语直接修饰前面的名词，也是可以的？

请NN指教，谢谢。。

2,that定于从句一般不作跳跃修饰吧。

3，期待NN来解答。

1. 如果要ignition跟flames並列的話, "spreading"要變成"spread".
2. OG10有這一題, explanation還可以...
3. 好像是86年的OG...如果找到, 會post the OG's explanation.

笨笨可可

2.对于2，我觉得是不是第一句的it有指代问题？

因为it可以指代主句主语，也可以指代后面的sample。。？

AlienX

個人意見: GMAT中的explanation對的指代都不是很一致...所以一般都不用指代不清把choice拿掉...

笨笨可可

那请问楼上的兄弟，你怎么去排除这个2中的第一个答案？

AlienX

說實話, 我做這題是也是做錯...
可是我是agree OG's explanation.
2A. A firm...claims from one-page writing sample that...
讀上去那個firm的claim是來自一頁的writing sample.
可是這並不是這句的意思...=)

2题，from的位置有问题，A中from是修饰claim，意思是：从一张纸来宣陈，而实际上from应该是修饰assess，意为从一张纸来做评估。

此外，that从意思上是作claim的宾语从句，但是这里语法上又像是修饰sample的定语从句，感觉好像修饰不清楚。

3题，意思不太明白，请NN来解释和翻译一下。
