今天来晚了,51-100 错了14题...继续努力!!

(A) that they could get their symptoms recognized and treated

(B) to recognize and treat their symptoms

(C) of getting their symptoms recognized and treated

(D) of recognizing and treating symptoms（C）

(E) of getting his or her symptoms recognized and treated

小时侯受虐待后长大的孩子通常很少有机会或没有机会使得他们的症状得到认同和治疗。

我选了B, 正确答案是C. have chance/no chance of doing sth. 所以a,b可以排除。D 逻辑意思不对。E 不简洁。

64．After Queen Isabella asked Admiral Columbus to describe the island of Hispaniola (now Haiti), which was newly discovered, he had reached for a sheet of paper, crumpled it, and said, “It looks like that—beyond the mountains, more mountains.”

(D) When asked by Queen Isabella to describe the newly discovered island of Hispaniola (now Haiti), Admiral Columbus reached（D）

(E) After Queen Isabella had asked Admiral Columbus to describe the discovery of the island of Hispaniola (now Haiti), he had reached

在QI让AC描述那个新发现的H岛的情况后，他拿了张纸，揉成一团，说，它就象这个，很多很多这个。

我选了E,答案是D。after 和 when 混淆也是个考点，after 从句是过去完成时，主句一般过去时；when 一般主从句时态相同。以上翻译我是根据A选项来翻译的，确实有点别扭。相比较而言，这里用when比较好，而且E中的主句用了过去完成时，这个不对。

72．Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals in her home, they featured
     the preparation of great quantities of ceremonial food, the wearing of many layers of colorful clothing adorned with silver, and the recounting of traditional tribal jokes and stories.

(A) Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals in her home, they featured

(B) Festivals were held in Aho, a Kiowa matriarch’s home, which featured

(C) Aho, who was a Kiowa matriarch in her home, held festivals featuring

(E) Aho, a Kiowa matriarch, held festivals in her home that featured

A, 在A，一个K的m的家，举办了一个节日，节日的特点是准备了许许多多的事物，穿戴了装饰了银饰的彩色衣服，讲述传统的笑话和故事。

我选了E,答案是D.这题平行对称明显。E中that没有紧跟在festivals后面。That featured跟在home后面有歧义，所以D把in her home,放句首，这样避免了歧义。

78．Although dozens of New York’s small museums are either devoted to local history or various ethnic groups, there are many one-of-a-kind museums from Manhattan to the Bronx that are open for exploration on summer weekends.

(D) Dozens of New York’s small museums are devoted to local history or various ethnic groups, and there are also（D）

(E) Devoted to local history or various ethnic groups, dozens of New York’s small museums and also

许多NY 的小博物馆致力于当地历史或是许多种族部落，许多单一种类的博物馆从M到B在夏天的周末是向公众开放的。

我选了C,答案是D. 题干的意思是尽管很多纽约的小博物馆被致力于发展当地历史或不同的道德团体，还存在有很多单一性的博物馆，它们开放为了夏季周末的研究学习。我们可以发现although是表示转折关系，但这个分类标准是不统一的。前面的分类标准是大和小，而后面的则是单一性还是多样性，完全有可能有这么一种博物馆，它既属于小博物馆又是一种单一性的博物馆，这样就产生逻辑上的前后矛盾了。所以这里不能使用转折关系，答案应该选D，使用并列关系就不存在这种问题了。(搜了下，这个解释的好！)

80．Although films about the American West depict coyotes as solitary animals howling mournfully on the tops of distant hills, in reality these gregarious creatures live in stable groups that occupy the same territory for long periods.

(E) films about the American West depict coyotes to be solitary and mournfully howling animals on the tops of distant hills

虽然那些美国西部片把C描述成一种独居的动物，在很远的山顶悲伤地嚎叫，实际上他们群居在稳定的组群中，而且组群都很长一段时间是在同一地区的。

我选的是C,答案是A. 主要原因是主动优于被动。

81．Although fruit can no longer grow once it is picked, it continues for some time to respire, taking in oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide, similar to the way human beings breathe.

(C) superficial if the three major networks all

(D) superficial whenever each of the three major networks（E）

(E) superficial, as when the three major networks each

虽然被认为是涉入了政治事件，当每个主要网络对政治候选人用一样的评论时，电视被认为是肤浅的。

我选了C,答案是E,  as when 解释为：尤其当。。。的时候。Each 强调个体，all强调整体。这里表示尤其当每个电台都发表一样的言论。。。这个比C中如果每个电台都发表一样的言论要强。

85．Although it was once funded entirely by the government, the Victoria and Albert

133

时间状语放前,那会不会转移重心,改变句子原来的意思呢?

january_ye

晚上整理白勇时看到的，希望会有些帮助^ ^

as + 名词 ，表示“作为...”，不表示比较

like（介词） + 名词，表示比较侧重名词与句子的主语名词比较; as(连词) + 句子，表示比较，强调动作的相似性。

共勉！

玻璃胶带

谢谢!

还想问下~

那as有沒有解釋: 像。。。的意思呢？
比如C, as people can 有什麽歧義嗎？

january_ye

个人认为119这里如果将like换为as就是强调动作了，而原文是主句名词与people的比较，换了就改变了原文的重心。

（参考白勇语法全解P215.58）
