prep 2-94的B选项with短语的用法

94. (29455-!-item-!-188;#058&004298)

Even though her career was cut short when she was in her prime and the fifteen recordings she made were disappointing artistically as well as technically, Olive Fremstad (1871-1951) has never been entirely forgotten by opera aficionados.

(A) though her career was cut short when she was in her prime and the fifteen recordings she made were

(B) though her career was cut short while in her prime, with the fifteen recordings she made

(C) as her career had been cut short when she was in her prime, with the fifteen recordings she had made

(D) with her career having been cut short when she was in her prime, and the fifteen recordings she made were

(E) with her career cut short while in her prime, and that the fifteen recordings she made were

prep里面对于B里面with短语的修饰解释如下:

with结构破乱了句子原来第二层的内部平行关系,使得with引导的部分单独出来,成为第一层中修饰主句Olive has never been forgotten的谓语。这样首先使句子意思完全被改变,其次使句子逻辑含义很牵强:随着她的15部作品在艺术和技巧双方面的失败,Olive从来没有被人们完全忘记。而句子原来的意思则是:虽然她的15部作品在艺术和技巧双方面的失败,Olive从来没有被人们完全忘记,显然后者更合适。

对比2-43

Although ice particles in the upper atmosphere benefit Earth in that they reflect and absorb solar radiation, acting as a global thermostat and thus keeping Earth from either burning up or freezing over, they also accelerate the destruction of the ozone layer by reacting with chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's).

(A) acting as a global thermostat and thus keeping Earth from either burning up or freezing over, they also accelerate

(B) acting as a global thermostat and thus keeping Earth either from burning up or freezing over, while also accelerating

(C) act as a global thermostat and thus keep Earth from either burning up or freezing over, while also accelerating

(D) they act as a global thermostat that thus keeps Earth either from burning up or freezing over, even though it also accelerates

(E) they act as a global thermostat to thus keep Earth from either burning up or freezing over, but they also accelerate

prep里面解释acting不会向后修饰时说到:

句子结构:Although ice particles … benefit Earth in that…, acting as… and keeping…, they also accelerate…

这个句子中的分词结构acting as...只能修饰in that they reflect and absorb solar radiation,不存在歧义。如果要往后修饰主句they also accelerate...,那么必须在Although...从句与acting as...之间加上连词,因为这都是修饰主句的状语(前者是状语从句,后者是分词结构状语),没有连词无法并列存在

========================================

对比2-94题,第一题中的with短语只会向前修饰。两题的解释出现矛盾。

===================================

umm...2-94里面with短语错在哪里?

===================================

查到了manhattan上面的解释

* also, the way the gmat uses 'with ...', it must be followed by a noun or noun equivalent. so, for instance, you could say 'with her 15 recordings', but you can't say 'with her 15 recordings disappointing...' (which is no longer a noun phrase).

不是很明白,with n. + ing 不是独立主格吗?为什么不能用with her 15 recordings disppointing?

恩,我先补充下自己的看法:with短语的错误应在于

with短语应该是作状语伴随修饰was cut short,“她的职业被中断,同时她的着15部记录在艺术和技术上都令人失望”逻辑上不合理。

with+n+present participle的with是多餘的...
P2-94的B的while clause的主語被omitted, 可是很明顯不會是her career....

以下是引用AlienX在2008-11-18 1:58:00的发言:
with+n+present participle的with是多餘的...

谢谢alien,可是为什么是多余的呢?不是独立主格吗?  sigh...

B的错处在于while之后省略的主谓。按语法规则这里补上主句主语:Even though her career was cut short while her career was in her prime, balabala

意思是错的
