大全 833-我在同一个点上摔了两次,但是还是不知道为什么.求助!!

833 The Supreme Court’s concern with legitimacy is not for the sake of the court but the nation to which it is responsible.

(A) but the nation to which it is responsible

(B) but for the sake of the nation to which it is responsible

(C) so much as the nation it is responsible to

(D) as the nation it is responsible to（B）

(E) but the nation

722 The data collected by weather airplanes that fly into the heart of a hurricane are useful mainly for gauging the storm’s structure and strength, not for the speed and the path of their movement.

(A) not for the speed and the path of their movement

(B) not for the speed and path of its movement

(C) not the speed and path of its movement

(D) and not the speed and path of their movements（C）

(E) and not for the speed and the path of its movements

A) for gauging和for the speed不对称。their错
B) for gauging和for the speed不对称。
C) best
D) their错
E) and前后不对称。

第二個for後面省略gauging,從而成為not the speed and.....; AT SC的考題在考對稱時需要考慮對稱的子句、片語及詞性

如果是mainly for gauging+N,not for的話，應該要變成not for measuring+N 如此才能達到對稱，所以本題考的對稱是for gauging+N1,not N2

这里的not the speed and path of its movement补充说明the storm’s structure and strength 而并不是补充说明for gauging the storm’s structure and strength

这两道题都做错了,当时分析了722以后就记住了还有这种陷阱,做到833就以为又来了.但是833还是错了,晕....

我想问一下为什么833的选项E不行呢?难道是因为没有限定是哪个nation的原因?

是不是not......but.....如果有相同的部分就一定选有相同部分的选项,如833,如果所有选项确实没有完全平行的,那么就选省略结构的????

请大家帮忙一下. 我被耍这两个题耍了.

我感觉对于平行对称结构，标志词后面的第一块内容一定是要对称的。

所以for都是要补出的。后面的补不补就要看能不能省了。

谢谢,

但是722里面选项B就是有for我选了就错了.

但是722，你的解释很清楚了啊，b选项缺少动名词，不对衬。

aeoluseros

在我看来，for + doing sth. 是介宾短语，是一整块内容。所以前后for要对称，而后面的for gauging省略。

或者可以看做是the storm’s structure and strength和the speed and path of its movement的并列也行。

我的疑问主要在于833,因为查了讨论贴,没有我相知道的问题.

如楼上所说,我能不能把E相也看成是省略格式呢: but(for the sake of) the nation, 因为前面not 后面已经出现 for the sake of 了

GMAT向来如果没有语法错误或者歧义就能省则省,但是这里既然没有选E,而E相省略也好像没有错,那么必然就是除了省略还有其他错误吧.

楼主着两道题目放在一起看，是个不错的横向比较。都是考平行。

我查了一下自己的做题记录，原来我在722上也错了。722的平行对我比较难一些：因为是gauge 的两个宾语的平行  (这个需要你从逻辑意思上来判断，你再仔细读读句子，就可以指代划线部分是gauge的宾语，而非for 的介宾； 我当时做题的时候就凭着形式平行，直奔B、E去了)：

The data collected by weather airplanes that fly into the heart of a hurricaneare useful mainly for gauging
  the storm’s structure and strength,not the speed and path of its movement

因为是宾语的平行，所以not前面不能有and

833比较简单：表语平行，not for... but for...。 这句话不需要理解逻辑意思，通过形式平行，就可以得出

The Supreme Court’s concern with legitimacy is not for the sake of the court but for the sake of the nation to which it is responsible
    

另外关于你说的省略的问题，我的理解是这样子的, 通常的平行的引导词有： both...and...、 not only ... but also...、not...but...

这里平行的第二个部分是不是省略要看第一个部分是如何写的：我举个例子GWD8-Q2：

Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted in the stride-piano tradition of Willie (The Lion) Smith and Duke Ellington, yet in many ways he stood apart from the mainstream jazz repertory.

B. Thelonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work that was rooted both
C. Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, who produced a body of work rooted
D. Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work that was rooted
E. Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work rooted both

这题的关键是看到both就要找and，而且两者后面的东东要对称，由于in在未划线部分，所以看到Willie (The Lion) Smith and Duke Ellington知道肯定不是和前面的both对称，再往后看发现yet in，说明both有问题，快速把both排除了，只剩C、D选项。

这样的例子在OG、GWD比比皆是。 楼主可以把OG里面平行对称的例子都找出来，看看到底什么时候省略，什么时候要写全。 这个考点要搞清楚的说。

当然722是个既考逻辑意思平行，又考形式平行的题目， 非常好。 而其他两道智考了形式平行

这应该是典型的考察平行和句子逻辑的题目吧。

一不小心就进了陷阱

batmanhm

可不可以理解为“逗号”在这里也体现了两句的差异？

zhaxi8313

谢谢dingxiang, 不错的例子,如果那个yet改成and,是不是就可以看作大平行了,选B了啊..
