表示极短暂动作的动词finish不用进行时态?

Prep1-127  is that right? can any nn explain and give example? tks

127.After decreasing steadily in the mid-1990's, the percentage of students in the United States finishing high school or having earned equivalency diplomas increased in the last three years of the decade, up to 86.5 percent in 2000 from 85.9 percent in 1999 and 84.8 percent in 1998.

(A) finishing high school or having earned equivalency diplomas increased in the last three years of

the decade, up to 86.5 percent in 2000 from 85.9 percent in 1999 and

(B) finishing high school or earning equivalency diplomas, increasing in the last three years of the

decade, rising to 86.5 percent in 2000 from 85.9 percent in 1999 and from

(C) having finished high school or earning an equivalency diploma increased in the last three years

of the decade, and rose to 86.5 percent in 2000 from 85.9 percent in 1999 and from

(D) who either finished high school or they earned an equivalency diploma, increasing in the last

three years of the decade, rose to 86.5 percent in 2000 from 85.9 percent in 1999 and

(E) who finished high school or earned equivalency diplomas increased in the last three years of the

decade, to 86.5 percent in 2000 from 85.9 percent in 1999 and

子结构:After decreasing…, the percentage increased…, to from
   

主词是the percentage,动词是increased,受词是介系词结构to from…。who引导形容词子修饰名词students
   

【考点】动词形式、※子结构、惯用语、逻辑表达、简洁有效
   

动词形式-现在进时,有些动词(表示状态或感觉的词,或者表示极短暂的动作)一般用现在进时,比如:declare recognize 等,finish 是表示极短暂动作的动词,用现在进时态;表达平意思的动词最好用一致的时态,除非有特别的时间标志。
   

子结构,当子中有现在分词结构时,注意是否该分词应该是原的动词。
   

惯用语-介系词,increase to 是固定搭配,increase up to 是错误的,up 多余,应该去掉。
   

逻辑表达,现在分词结构在尾可作定语修饰紧的名词,也可作形容词修饰整个子,所以在这种情况下需要特别注意,通常优先作定语修饰名词,如果符合逻辑,则是作形容词修饰子,如果二者都能解符合逻辑,则明该分词结构有修饰歧义。
   

简洁有效-语意重复(Redoundency)rise increase 表达相同的意思,只需要一个词即可,避免语意上的重复。
   

(A) 表示极短暂动作的动词finish用进时态,故现在分词结构应该改为子形式作定语;现在完成时having earned与前面的时态一致;increase to是固定搭配,up多余,应该去掉。
   

(B) 表示极短暂动作的动词finish用进时态,故现在分词结构应该改为子形式作定语;整个子缺少动词;finishing…, increasing…, rising…有平的嫌疑,而且riseincrease语意重复(Redoundency)
   

(C) 现在完成时having finished与后面的时态一致;riseincrease语意重复(Redoundency)
   

(D) either or…连接的对象对称,而且表达的意思也与原有所同;现在分词结构increasing有作定语就近修饰diplomas的歧义,increase应该是子的动词;riseincrease语意重复(Redoundency)
   

(E) 正确,who引导形容词子,修饰名词students,平动词finished or earned

好像中学语法里是讲过瞬间动词不用进行时这样的内容,记不太清了。

不过从中文意思看,“正在结束”这样的说法也比较奇怪吧。

希望有NN路过指点。

但是,我经常听到有人说,im finishing up......难道不可以这样用吗?

嗯,这个,挠头。。。我只能说这是语法考试,你听到别人说的未必就是符合书面语法规范的呀。你知道GMAT语法很多规矩是很死板的,比如限制性定语从句只用that当引导词,而现实中大家也用which。

词穷。。。
