分析OG11发现的一些语法小问题，带一定趣味性，难度递增，大家可以进来看看是不是都知道！！顺便帮帮我解答...（问题1－10）

tianyi_2003

问题1：三个主句并列
                                            

SVO, and SVO, and SVO  还是 SVO , SVO , and SVO ? 第二个主句前的and 可以省略吗？？

 

问题2

be able to do and can do 是否是一个典型的平行结构呢？

 

问题3 （OG11-36）

so as to 这个结构是不是永远都是错的呢？（注意和so...as to 区分..）

 

问题4  主谓一致：
                                        不可数名词 and 不可数名词——谓语用单数还是复数呢？

 

问题5   A and B that ...此处的A,B是名词， that 是就近指代B还是指代A和B还是都可以呢？涉及到了后面的主谓一致

 

问题6  分词做后置定语可以跳跃修饰吗？ the evidence of extinction supporting the theory...是否可以？

 

问题7 （ OG11-22）

22. The end of the eighteenth century saw the emergence of prize-stock breeding, with individual bulls and cows receiving awards, fetching unprecedented prices, and excited enormous interest whenever they were put on show.

问题：此处的saw是什么成分什么意思呢？？

 

问题8  yet 前是否一定有“,”
                                        呢？

From the bark of the paper birch tree the Menomini crafted a canoe about twenty feet long and two feet wide, with small ribs and rails of cedar, which could carry four persons or eight hundred pounds of baggage yet was so light that a person could easily portage it aroud impeding rapids

OG的解释有时候是自相矛盾的，看到此题前我一直简单的认为yet前有逗号...

 

问题9  OG11-86

 Although early soap operas were first aired on evening radio in the 1920's, they were moved to the daytime hours in the 1930's when the evening schedule became crowded with comedians and variety shows

已经代入正选，想问为什么Although 从句时间（1920）在主句时间（1930)前而不用过去完成式呢？

 

问题10  OG11-76

76. Never before had taxpayers confronted so many changes at once as they had in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.

A.  so many changes at once as they had in

B.  at once as many changes as

C.  at once as many changes that there were with

D.  as many changes at once as they confronted in

E.  so many changes at once that confronted  them in

正选是D

主句倒装，但是注意是否定，为什么不用so....as 来代替as...as ？还是说as...as 可以通用肯定否定形式呢？

 

问题11  OG51

 The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month.

A  world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month

B  world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival's month

D  world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival

正选B

想知道此处proclaiming 为什么不会引起修饰world 和主语Olympic Games发出伴随动作的混淆呢？
                                            

OG11说 in that 过于正式不好，但是很多正选是in that ，是不是OG11解释有错呢？？

 

不敢一下问太多，怕大家眼睛花，反正看到有知道的就告诉我吧，对我都是很大的帮助，因为水平实在有限，问的问题有点那个..希望大家能谅解，先谢过大家了！剩下的问题我也会尽快贴出的还希望大家支持啊！！

问题2

be able to do and can do 是否是一个典型的平行结构呢？

 没见过这样的平行结构，而且从逻辑上讲两者通常不能并列，google上也没搜到这样的结构

问题3 （OG11-36）

so as to 这个结构是不是永远都是错的呢？（注意和so...as to 区分..）

 不一定，但是基本都错，so as to连用是个累赘表达，但是当其他选项错误太明显那就只能选它了

问题5   A and B that ...此处的A,B是名词， that 是就近指代B还是指代A和B还是都可以呢？涉及到了后面的主谓一致

 不一定，要涉及到后面主谓一致与逻辑意思上的正确性。但是如果两个都能当先行词就产生修饰歧义

 连词前面不加逗号很正常，另外OG在哪里说yet一定要有逗号了？

问题9  OG11-86

已经代入正选，想问为什么Although 从句时间（1920）在主句时间（1930)前而不用过去完成式呢？

 in the 1920's固定用一般过去时，而且原句逻辑上并没有要去强调表明两个动作的先后次序。

D  world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival

正选B

           现在分词前面有逗号一定做状语。

OG11说 in that 过于正式不好，但是很多正选是in that ，是不是OG11解释有错呢？？

 恩，in that与because,since,for放一起优先选后面三个。for不能放句首。但不是说不能选in that。优先原则永远只放在最后3-2split的时候判断。

SVO, and SVO, and SVO  还是 SVO , SVO , and SVO ? 第二个主句前的and 可以省略吗？？

像楼主说的这种完整主谓结构的并列是必须省略第二个and的，但其他并列就不一定，比如曾见过有三个动作并列时全部加and的，以表达动作的连贯性

问题2

be able to do and can do 是否是一个典型的平行结构呢？

没见过这样的结构，但如果题目要区分be able to 和 can的意义上的区别的话应该可以

问题6  分词做后置定语可以跳跃修饰吗？ the evidence of extinction supporting the theory...是否可以？

一般是就近修饰的，但如果考点不在这里的话也可以跳跃修饰，OG和Prep里有很多这样的例子

感谢两位帮助我都清楚了，至于yet前面的逗号问题

184. As measured by the Commerce Department, corporate profits peaked in the fourth quarter of 1988 and have slipped since then, as many companies have been unable to pass on higher costs.

(A) and have slipped since then, as many companies have been unable to pass on higher costs

(B) and have slipped since then, the reason being because many companies have been unable to pass on higher costs

(C) and slipped since then, many companies being unable to pass on higher costs

(D) but, many companies unable to pass on higher costs, they have slipped since then（A）

(E) yet are slipping since then, because many companies were unable to pass on higher costs

A, the best choice, observes an appropriate sequence of verb tenses a single act in the past (peaked) followed by an extended activity reaching to the present (have slipped). The as clause states clearly the cause of the slippage. B suffers from the redundant and unidiomatic expression the reason being because. In C, the use of the simple past slipped with since then is unidiomatic because since then denotes extended time. In D, the intrusion of the awkward many... costs causes the antecedent of they to become unclear. Furthermore, a comma should precede the but since it introduces a second independent clause. In E, yet also requires a comma before it, are slipping with since then is illogical, and were unable represents an ungrammatical tense shift.

这个帖子里有关于yet前是否要加comma。

kinishelley

问题1：三个主句并列
                

SVO, and SVO, and SVO  还是 SVO , SVO , and SVO ? 第二个主句前的and 可以省略吗？？
            

并列结构，只在最后一个分句或最后一部分前加and

问题2

be able to do and can do 是否是一个典型的平行结构呢？
            

如果这也算平行对称结构的话， 肯定是非典型，很少见

问题3 （OG11-36）
            

so as to 这个结构是不是永远都是错的呢？（注意和so...as to 区分..）

不一定错，

一般都和 so that 同出现在选项中，二者区别如下：

1．     So that连接的两部分，逻辑主语可以不一定一致

2．     So as to 连接的两部分，逻辑主语必须一致，一般只用于简单的动词，或系表结构的句子中

3．     在其它条件相同的情况下，so as to 优于so that

 

问题4  主谓一致：
            不可数名词 and 不可数名词——谓语用单数还是复数呢？
            

 复数

问题5   A and B that ...此处的A,B是名词， that 是就近指代B还是指代A和B还是都可以呢？涉及到了后面的主谓一致
            

不一定，要看具体的题目

 

问题6  分词做后置定语可以跳跃修饰吗？ the evidence of extinction supporting the theory...是否可以？
            

 如果是考点，应当就近修饰更好。但也有很多类似的例子出现在非画线部分。

问题7 （ OG11-22）
            

22. The end of the eighteenth century saw the emergence of prize-stock breeding, with individual bulls and cows receiving awards, fetching unprecedented prices, and excited enormous interest whenever they were put on show.

问题：此处的saw是什么成分什么意思呢？？
            

 谓语动词，见证

问题8  yet 前是否一定有“,”
            呢？
            

From the bark of the paper birch tree the Menomini crafted a canoe about twenty feet long and two feet wide, with small ribs and rails of cedar, which could carry four persons or eight hundred pounds of baggage yet was so light that a person could easily portage it aroud impeding rapids

OG的解释有时候是自相矛盾的，看到此题前我一直简单的认为yet前有逗号...

不确定

问题9  OG11-86

 Although early soap operas were first aired on evening radio in the 1920's, they were moved to the daytime hours in the 1930's when the evening schedule became crowded with comedians and variety shows

已经代入正选，想问为什么Although 从句时间（1920）在主句时间（1930)前而不用过去完成式呢？
            

 文章明确指出是一个过去的时间点，1920’s，肯定用过去时。GMAT的很少用过去完成时，除非在一个题目中能体现一个动作在另一个过去发生的动作之前，并且有影响。这个OG里面有解释

问题10  OG11-76

76. Never before had taxpayers confronted so many changes at once as they had in the Tax Reform Act of 1986.

A.  so many changes at once as they had in

B.  at once as many changes as

C.  at once as many changes that there were with

D.  as many changes at once as they confronted in

E.  so many changes at once that confronted  them in

正选是D

主句倒装，但是注意是否定，为什么不用so....as 来代替as...as ？还是说as...as 可以通用肯定否定形式呢？
            

 As  as用于肯定句，So as用于否定句

但要先弄明白否定句和肯定句的区别。不是按中文的意思来判断，GMAT都是以是否出现NO等明确的否定词来判断。Never不算否定。

问题11  OG51

 The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month.

A  world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month

B  world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival's month

D  world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival

正选B

想知道此处proclaiming 为什么不会引起修饰world 和主语Olympic Games发出伴随动作的混淆呢？
                

OG11说 in that 过于正式不好，但是很多正选是in that ，是不是OG11解释有错呢？？
            

OG不是选D吗？

我刚做完这题，也想问关于In that的问题。非常奇怪，求牛人解释！
