GWD6-Q39:

Twenty-two feet long and 10 feet in diameter, the AM-1 is one of the many new satellites that is a part of 15 years effort of subjecting the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and land surfaces to detailed scrutiny from space.

A.      satellites that is a part of 15 years effort of subjecting the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and land surfaces

B.       satellites, which is a part of a 15-year effort to subject how Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and land surfaces interact

C.      satellites, part of 15 years effort of subjecting how Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and land surfaces are interacting

D.      satellites that are part of an effort for 15 years that has subjected the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and land surfaces

E.       satellites that are part of a 15-year effort to subject the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, ocean, and land surfaces

我对此句的结构很模糊,特别是that 后面的一连串,不知道该怎么理解意思和修饰的结构

请大家多多指教,谢谢

选e？？

GmatThunder

刚刚有一个帖子是同样的问题讨论

我觉得是E，不知道LZ的答案是什么？

我是通过修饰语应该限定satellites排除AB，然后通过effort to subject the interactions of选E的

谢谢你的回答,答案是E ,通过排除法是可以选出E的,只是我对E 还有以下的疑惑:

1)that are part of a 15-year effort to subject the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, ocean, and land surfaces  的意思该如何理解??

2)to subject the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, ocean, and land surfaces  到底是做什么成分,是做effort 的定语吗,还是做目的状语??

刚好做到这里, 答案给的是E

我反刍了两天, 总算明白了一些:

  subjet 这里是倾向的意思

Prone; disposed:
易于…的；倾向于…的：
a child who is subject to colds.
易于感冒的孩子
Likely to incur or receive; exposed:
易受…的：很可能导致或受到…的；暴露的：
a directive that could be subject to misinterpretation.

that are part of a 15-year effort to subject the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, ocean, and land surfaces  to detailed scrutiny from space

  从太空中详细审查可以得出地球大气,海洋和陆地表面的互相作用的倾向(情况--即,下雨打雷,刮风...)是(人造卫星)15年成果的一部分,

to subject the interactions of Earth’s atmosphere, ocean, and land surfaces  觉得是做目的状语, 但按照中文翻译习惯就变成定语啦.

不知道说得对不对.. 欢迎拍拍~~

谢谢你的详细解释,我想了想,你的想法应该是正确的.

這題的"subject"是動詞, 不是形容詞
A, C錯是因為"15-year effort"之前少了一個"a"
subject X to Y是subject的用法, B中的"how..."不對...
E會比D好, 因為"a 15-year effort"比"an effort for 15 years" concise

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/subject

1 a: to bring under control or dominion : subjugate
            b: to make (as oneself) amenable to the discipline and control of a superior
2: to make liable : predispose
3: to cause or force to undergo or endure (something unpleasant, inconvenient, or trying) <was subjected to constant verbal abuse>

這題的subject的意思應該是to cause or force to undergo or endure (something unpleasant, inconvenient, or trying)

認同上面這位牛大的說法

subject 為動詞>>>>修飾後面的一些現象(名詞)

 金山词霸查出来的：subject to the scrutiny of 由]...进行复查[彻查、追究]

后半句的意思：…，AM-1是很多卫星中的一颗，这些卫星15年来是【致力于使地球大气，海洋和陆地表面间的相互作用经受仔细的检查】努力中的一部分。
