such as和like

dreadpower

    我在大全里不只一次看见用like表示举例的，但是都是未划线部分的

    我甚至怀疑过大全里的题目是否ETS出的

    大家可以搜索看看是否和我说的一样

RC OG42,

Backward integration removes the need for some purchasing and marketing functions, centralizes overhead, and permits manufacturers to eliminate duplicated efforts in research and development. Where components are commodities (ferrous metals or petroleum, for example), backward integration almost certainly boosts profits. Nevertheless, because product innovation means adopting the most technologically advanced and cost-effective ways of making components, backward integration may entail a serious risk for a technologically active company—for example, a producer of sophisticated consumer electronics.

红字表明metal可以是commodity。同时：commodity其中的一个意思：An article of trade or commerce, especially an agricultural or mining product, that can be transported. 用品一种贸易或商业物品。尤指农业或矿产品，能够运输。这个意思也表明metal可以是commodity。所以：

The market for recycled commodities like aluminum and other metals remain strong despite economic changes in the recycling industry.
A. commodities like aluminum and other metals remain
B. commodities like those of aluminum and other metals are remaining
C. commodities such as aluminum and other metals remains
D. commodities,such as aluminum and other metals, remain
E. commodities, like the commodities of aluminum and other metals, remains

这样从OG的阅读里可以证明，commodities such as aluminum and other metals 是对的。证明偶选C没错。

opeman也证明了这一点。

我觉得COMMODITIES包括后面的金属. 所以应该为C

看来，我的设想是不对的，还是应该遵循传统认定。

以下是引用tianwan在2004-5-30 11:27:00的发言：

OG 阅读 43，263题

It can be inferred from the passage that some mechanisms that regulate internal body temperature, like sweating and panting, can lead to which of the following?

也就是这里的sweating and panting是不同于且不被包括于some mechanisms 内的。。。。

谢谢TIANWAN/ MARIE/ OPENMAN

commodities在这里可以解释为

An article of trade or commerce, especially an agricultural or mining product, that can be transported.
用品一种贸易或商业物品。尤指农业或矿产品，能够运输

而aluminum and other metals显然是商品。

除此之外，E用like的逻辑有问题。

坚决支持C

C .such as 举例。但是remains 前面需不需要加“，”？各位请帮我解释下。。。

这道题,很有可能是选E的.

ETS真是变态呀! 但是遇到such as和like的比较,我还是认为like是错的, 要不没法做题了. 我们只有保佑不要遇到这种变态的题了.

The market for recycled commodities like aluminum and other metals remain strong despite economic changes in the recycling industry.
A. commodities like aluminum and other metals remain
B. commodities like those of aluminum and other metals are remaining
C. commodities such as aluminum and other metals remains
D. commodities,such as aluminum and other metals, remain
E. commodities, like the commodities of aluminum and other metals, remains

这样从OG的阅读里可以证明，commodities such as aluminum and other metals 是对的。证明偶选C没错。

我觉得如果C中SUCH AS前和METALS后用逗号就对了。

支持shenxiaoyang MM：如果C中SUCH AS前和METALS后用逗号就对了。

BTW,shenxiaoyang MM的签名“What the mind can conceive, it can achieve!”我更喜欢的是：whatever you conceive and believe,you can achieve.
