GWD7-Q33:  句意,
The health benefits of tea have been the subject of much research; in addition to its possibilities for preventing and inhibiting some forms of cancer, the brewed leaves of Camellia sinensis may also play a role in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
A. in addition to its possibilities for preventing and inhibiting
B. in addition to its possibilities to prevent or inhibit
C. besides the possibility that it prevents and inhibits
D. besides the possible preventing and inhibiting of
E. besides possibly preventing or inhibiting

正确答案是E，我选的是B，我想请问一下，in additon to 和 besides 在GMAT中有何区别？。。。。再麻烦NN帮忙分析下选项为什么错误~~~谢谢！~~~

possibility 后面是要加of的 所以B不对

in addition to 和 besides应该是没有区别的  
个人感觉 nn补充~~

我把大仙的最经典的结论给你~
此题咋看着 in addition to或者besides不知道怎么用，因为很多人生硬地认为主语和in addiction to 之后的东西应该平行，其实不然，该题的妙处，也是在于意合，读者需要判断，“防治癌症”这事儿，到底和句子中哪个地方有资格构成“意合”？
如果还没看出，请允许我重温一下老头挪位置的常用伎俩，看看这个被我挪过的句子：
The brewed leaves of Camellia sinensis may also play a role in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke, besides possibly preventing or inhibiting some forms of cancer
这会儿看明白了吧，实际上，他们需要和in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke平行，本题答案也呼之欲出了。当然，本题还有其它看点，容后再述。
有了这题的基础，大家应该会比较明天PREP里面大家一直郁闷的两题，答案是怎么回事，因为， In addition to 到底和谁平行，不是由谁放在主语说了算，而是意思说了算！
