A medieval manuscript called L contains all (所有的作品都在这个manuscript里）eighteen extant tragedies by the Greek playwright Euripides. Of these, ten called the “select plays,” areaccompanied in L by ancient commentaries and also appear in othermedieval manuscripts（这10部作品在其他的manuscript里也出现过，取非就是另外8部没有在其他的manuscripts里出现过）; this group includes some of Euripides’best-known works, including the Medea. The other eight, which appear inalphabetical order, without commentary. The Electra is one of the alphabeticals.

E. Euripides’ Electra does not appear accompanied by a commentary in any extant medieval manuscript.
Electra根本就没在其他的manuscript里出现过，所以5个选项里只有E是“Electra没有在其他manuscript里出现”的子集合。在解释得详细点，带着commentary出现是出现的一种。

GMAC在这里非要把commentary带上来转移同学们的注意力！！！其阴险程度可见一斑！

有道理，支持关于“取非就是另外8部没有在其他的manuscripts里出现过”的见解

这种题目几乎不可能再考场上做对

正确答案是E但是和以上所说的考虑不同。上述推理有严重失误！！！
Of these, ten called the “select plays,” areaccompanied in L by ancient commentaries and also appear in othermedieval manuscripts（这10部作品在其他的manuscript里也出现过，取非就是另外8部没有在其他的manuscripts里出现过 ）
此处取非是我认为是个人的错误推理，因为题目已经明确给出了取非的内容：Of these, ten called the “select plays,” ｛｛｛areaccompanied in L ｝｝｝by ancient commentaries and also appear in othermedieval manuscripts（; this group includes some of Euripides’best-known works, including the Medea. The other eight, which appear inalphabetical order, ｛｛｛without commentary.｝｝｝
也就是说在L中10部和8部的分类是以有无commentary，而不是有没有在其他manuscripts里出现过为区别。
题目只提到了10部有commentary的还出现在其他manuscripts里，没有说明8部有没有在其他manuscripts里出现过，我们就不能武断的论定。
但是，在题目中有明确说明：前10部areaccompanied in L，而后8部without commentary.
请大家注意状语修饰“in L”. 说明前10部在L中有commentary，但是在其他manuscripts中，有没有？不知道，所以排除D。后8部“without commentary.”没有状语修饰，表明在所有范围内，都没有commentary.即使在其他版本的manuscripts中出现过，也没有commentary.

我觉得这样解释更好：
ten called the “select plays,” are accompanied in L by ancient commentaries and also appear in other medieval manuscripts
这十部列入“select plays,”，有评论且出现在别的medieval manuscripts
选项E Euripides’ Electra does not appear accompanied by a commentary in any extant medieval manuscript.取非则为，其以伴随评论的形式出现在别的medieval manuscripts中，如果这个成立，那么它就不在字母编辑部分，而要列入“select plays,”

这种题目 太那什么了。根本没参考价值。

我觉得你的这个推论有点太复杂了，既然前面说前10本在L中并且有commentary,后面紧接着说后8本以字母顺序、无评论的形势出现，肯定是指在L这个范围中了！如果偏偏认为后8本说得是所有manuscript里面都是这种情况，未免太违和、太突兀了吧！
对于去非的那个，我是赞同的。不过这个实在隐蔽，而且还有作者的主观意图在其中，考试时怎么可能选的出来！

google了一下这题，觉得比较信服于以下的解释，大家参考参考。
http://www.beatthegmat.com/medieval-manuscript-t41264.html

We know that:

the "select plays" in 'L' are accompanied by commentaries
the "select plays" are ALSO found in other manuscripts.
the "select plays" contain SOME of Euripides' best known plays.
Medea is a "select play."


Now for the "other eight," which are in contrast to the "select plays."

We know the "other eight" do not include commentary.
We know the "other eight" appear in alphabetical order. (Suggesting that the "select plays" are not in alphabetical order).
Electra is an "alphabetical." -------> Electra does not include commentary

Now there is one little step. Notice how the "select plays" differ from "the alphabeticals" in that they are ALSO found in other medieval manuscripts. Therefore the "other eight" are not found in medieval manuscripts ------> Electra does not appear in other ancient manuscripts. The only manuscript it does appear in it is not accompanied by commentary. Thus (E).

关键的地方就在于“and also appear in other medieval manuscripts” 暗示了说另外八部是没有在其他地方出现的。因此现存八部就只有在L里找到，而这八部是没有commentary。
