以下是引用dancingforum在2004-5-1 3:01:00的发言:版主总结的真的很好, 但是我还是不太明白, 有点似懂非懂:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------来一个实际中的例子,新东方补充教材新版本204题:
Nuclear fusion is the force that powers the Sun, the stars, and hydrogen bombs, merging the nuclei of atoms and not splitting them apart, as in nuclear reactors. (A) merging the nuclei of atoms and not splitting them apart, as in nuclear reactors (B) merging the nuclei of atoms instead of splitting them apart, like nuclear reactors (C) merging the nuclei of atoms rather than splitting them apart, as nuclear reactors do (D) and merges the nuclei of atoms but does not split them apart, as is done in unclear reactors (E) and merges the nuclei of atoms, unlike atomic reactors that split them apart 很明显,is这个动作和merge这个动作不可能是同时发生的,也不可能是前一个句子的整体导致后面动作的发生,所以使用merge就错了。大家可以注意到,ABC三个选项都在引诱你使用伴随状语,这就是ETS的险恶用心。所以答案必须在DE中筛选。
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 从语法点上看, 分词的主要功能就是做形容词修饰名词或代词,我不觉得应该把merging看成和 is 并列构成伴随状语(版主用来排除ABC的主要依据),这题为什么不可以 将 merging 看成是修饰主句的主语 fusion 呢, 如果我们把语序稍微调整一下, 变成:
Merging the ....., nuclear fusion is a force that ......
把merging看成方式状语, 觉得有什么问题呢?
一直觉得分词做状语在GMAT里挺浑人的,但我手边没有语法书, 能不能请版主把分词的用法给来个详细的, 全面的总结. 谢谢了
另外, 这题到底是 的 D 还是 E 呀, 给我自己选, 我肯定象版主说的,掉坑里,选个 C 了, 呵呵
这道题目再og11-104种的答案是C不是E OR D 解释如下: C rather than is a correct idiom for comparion in this sentence; as is followed by a clause with a subject, nuclear reactors, and a verb, do; the comparison is clear and complete. D Illogical and awkward construction attempts to make merges the second verb of the restrictive clause paralled to powers and does not split; punctuation makes clear this separate action can not be the case;as is done is awkard and wordy E Illogical and awkward construction attempts to make merges the second verb of the restrictive clause paralled to powers and does not split; punctuation makes clear this separate action can not be the case;as is done is awkard and wordy; comparision is awkardly drawn; switch from unclear to atomic is unexplained and unsupported 本来看了lz的解释恍然开朗,在一看og的选向,彻底迷糊了。。。可是这可是og11版的解释和答案,应该不会有错吧。 |
