D. conditions and, using the set of objective criteria derived from these analyses, decide
E. conditions and, in their use of the set of objective criteria they derive from these analyses, they decide

答案是D，但是我认为D不对！因为这个题目是examine和decide平行，中间还套着environment和condition平行，大平行套小平行为了区分不是应该在and前加“，”么？？？所有选项里就D没有逗号，为什么偏偏D对呢？？

(A) deep relaxation, if practiced regularly, can strengthen the immune system
(B) one can strengthen the immune system through deep relaxation, if it is practiced regularly

为什么B不对？？我觉得B的主语one才能yield啊

那个environment平行可以忽略吧。。这句话可以简化为

The normative model of strategic decision-making suggests that executives examine ... and ...decide.

能简化为这样的只有D选项。。所以选了D。。

多谢！但是第一道题中的fund后面直接加intended, 这句话主体是什么呢？intended的主语是谁？做什么成分呢？一点连接词都没有啊

sayysong

n. + (-ed) v. 过去分词做定语修饰名词，前面的名词即它的主语，是动作的承受方，有被动意思。
fund是被用来意图维持经济的。

明白了！谢谢！

关于“逗号”，在and的并列中并不是一个致命的问题----换句话说，我们不足以凭借此kill掉一个选项。对于A选项，有两个问题：

1# in using vs using;

1*using the set of objective criteria, manages can decide on a strategy || Geting a 800 scores in GMAT, I successfully apply a full schoolarship.
2*in using the set of objective criteria, manages can decide on a strategy|| By geting a 800 scores in GMAT, I successfully apply a full schoolarship.

在doing sth, sb do...|| sb,doing sth, do...结构中，显然2*要比1*组句子wordy！当然，介词+doing并不是在什么时候都没效率，比如当他们在句尾：在以下两个句子中，介词是不能省略的，否则就有歧义。

1*manages can decide on a strategy by using the set of objective criteria. || I successfully apply a full schoolarship by geting a 800 scores in GMAT.
2*manages can decide on a strategy  using the set of objective criteria. || I successfully apply a full schoolarship geting a 800 scores in GMAT.

相信楼主现在看出了为什么GMAT要认为此句中 using要比in using好了。

2# managers,using the set of objective criteria they derive from these analyses(=executives examine a firm’s external environment and internal conditions), can decide on a strategy .
从前文可以看出these analyses是managers做的，自然criteria也是they derive的。所有they 无须重复，否则冗余。

为什么不是 the immune systems 做主语呢？
选项D E 错在哪里？ 请指教

还是由于主动优于 被动？？

第一道题目,我研究了一下指代的问题,有一些个人理解,请大家来看看

c. 由于intended to ...after doing ...整个部分都是修饰fund,所以这个部分内的it的指代都是指代fund,所以指代的是fund,与逻辑相悖.
如果after从句并不从属于intended to...的这个修饰部分,则it指代主句主语(如果主语是单数的话)
