4. The use of chemical pesticides in this country is equally extensive or more than ten years ago.

a. equally extensive or more than ten years ago

b. equal to or more extensive than ten years ago

c. as extensive as ten years ago or more

d. equal to, if not more, than ten years ago

e. as extensive as it was ten years ago, if not more so

答案是E,但是我选C~~~~

so 在这里指代什么???

alohabrian

so指代extensive, if not more so是可有可无的结构。

另外，我觉得这个句子很不好，关键的比较对象没有清晰的出来now 和ten year ago; 不要补出的地方确补出 it

我觉得最好的表达是：The use of chemical pesticides in this country is now as extensive as (was) ten years ago

不像标准的gmat题。。。。

The gyrfalcon, an Arctic bird of prey, has survived a close brush with extinction; its numbers are now five times greater than when the use of DDT was sharply restricted in the early 1970's.

 

(A) extinction; its numbers are now five times greater than

(B) extinction; its numbers are now five times more than

(C) extinction, their numbers now fivefold what they were

(D) extinction, now with fivefold the numbers they had

(E) extinction, now with numbers five times greater than

OA is A

看看Prep2上的题目就知道LZMM这道题的标准答案多么awkward了。

哦~~~明白了~~~~

对于prep的那题,我有个疑问~~~

我学XDF时语法老师说,";"出现时原文有,一定选带";"的选项.原文没有则一定不能选

可是我做题的时候发现几道题不符和这个规律啊~~~有时候用and 或but取代";"

大侠能不能指点一下???

alohabrian

汗死。。。XDF竟然有这种规律。

GMAT的语法题，就是要打破，一切的自以为是的规则。

我总来没听过这种规律。

AlienX

XDF給的, 大都是不是絶對對的rule...

heiheituzi

超级同意~~~同一道题里经常出现两条规律互相矛盾~~~

但是如果出现";" 可以优先看带";"的选项吗???

alohabrian

你把问题看得太简单了。

没有这种规律的。

一切看过题目再分析。

GMAT的SC本质上 实在考察，使用那一种表达 最能体现 作者 正确的含义。

没有什么绝对规律可言。
