210.
            (30326-!-item-!-188;#058&005383)     (GWD-1-Q2)

 

By merging its two publishing divisions, the company will increase their share of the country's $21 billion book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging from obscure textbooks to mass-market paperbacks.

A. their share of the country's $21 billion book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging

B. from 6 percent to 10 percent its share of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges

C. to 10 percent from 6 percent in their share of the $21 billion book market in the country, a market ranging

D. in its share, from 6 percent to 10 percent, of the $21 billion book market in the country, which ranges

E. to 10 percent from 6 percent its share of the country's $21 billion book market, which ranges

这道题正确答案有歧义，PREP是E, GWD 是B。

我不是很明白，请大家指教一下。个人比较倾向于B, 多谢啦：）

BD肯定不对了，which引导的非限定从句修饰the country逻辑上不通了，只有E解决了这个问题。AC都是将 a market 做逗号前面的同位语,A逻辑不通，C将这个国家作为一个市场缩小到图书市场了。与B比较，E的唯一区别是将book market 的位置放在更合适的位置。

非限制性定语从句好像也可以跳跃修饰吧。我觉得这里还有点不明白,就是its share of the $21 billion book market 和 the country's $21 billion book market。为什么前面没有后者用的好呢？

请参考下帖。

本人认为E正确。

I go with E.
在我做到过的gmat题目里，which只有在两种情况下，被允许跳跃指代。1. ...A of
B+C+D,的结构里修饰A 。 2. which 结构后的谓语部分 与其前面的先行词 存在 语法上的主谓不一致。比如 现行词是markets,
which后的谓语用ranges而不用range。

这道题目里以上两种情况都不符。 我认为ETS会用其惯用思路-non-relative clause-修饰就近 名词-来排除B: 从形式上看which ranges 修饰了country.所以不对。

E的话，每个修饰部分都紧贴其修饰对象，符合GMAT思路。

嗯， 有道理。看来要抓住主要的错误。谢谢哈
