SOME GWD FOR HELP(6-27,31,39,41)

闲云漫舞

没有因果，是转折；用while...从语意上强调了twins' divergence 然后 highlights sth. 仔细体会一下句意。

GWD 6-27   还是E 吧  觉得没有that引导有些不舒服

針對gwd6-31，我是選E，我很好奇的是，句意讀起來有因為...所以...的味道，為何不選E

不是因果关系，只是从前者的事实推导出后边来。第一次偶也选的是E，因为觉得B里的that有些少见。

6-39:

Past assessments of the Brazilian rain forest have used satellite images to tally deforested areas, where farmers and ranchers have clear-cut and burned all the trees, but such work has not addressed either logging, which is the removal of only selected trees, as well as surface fires, burning down individual trees but do not denude the forest.

   B:which removes only selected trees, or surface fires that burn  （answer）

    D: removing only selected trees, or surface fires, burning    中间的逗号不好，分割开了burn的逻辑主语。

请nn指正。

gwd6-27
The results of two recent unrelated studies support the idea that dolphins may share certain cognitive abilities with humans and great apes; the studies indicate dolphins as capable of recognizing themselves in mirrors—an ability that is often considered a sign of self-awareness—and to grasp spontaneously the mood or intention of humans.

dolphins as capable of recognizing themselves in mirrors—an ability that is often considered a sign of self-awareness—and to grasp spontaneously

dolphins’ ability to recognize themselves in mirrors—an ability that is often considered as a sign of self-awareness—and of spontaneously grasping

dolphins to be capable of recognizing themselves in mirrors—an ability that is often considered a sign of self-awareness—and to grasp spontaneously

D为什么错?

D除了as多余之外，还有一个错，ability of doing sth. ETS认为是unidiomatic的，更常见的是ability of sb. to do sth.

不过在金山词霸上看到有ability of thinking的例子

117. A firm that specializes in the analysis of handwriting claims from a one-page writing sample that it can assess more than three hundred personality traits, including enthusiasm, imagination, and ambition.

(A) from a one-page writing sample that it can assess

(B) from a one-page writing sample it has the ability of assessing

(C) the ability, from a one-page writing sample, of assessing

(D) to be able, from a one-page writing sample, to assess（D）

(E) being able to assess, from a one-page writing sample,

Choice D, the best answer, correctly uses an infinitive to connect the verb claims with the firm’s assertion: claims to be able... to assess.... All of the other choices use ungrammatical or unclear constructions after claims. Choices A and B present clauses that should be introduced by “claims that.” In A, placing that after sample rather than after claims produces the unintended statement that the claim itself is made on the basis of a single one-page writing sample. Also, in B, the ability of assessing is unidiomatic. Choice C repeats this second fault and uses the unidiomatic claims the ability. Choice E uses the ungrammatical claims being able to assess.

39T：

A：the removal of有动词形式，不用这个； as well as改为or；burning错，我也感觉如果有逗号的话会引起歧义

B：正确；有一点，which前面应该没有逗号吧？

C：along with改为or

D：burning错

E：as well as改为or

還有，E後面的namely they vary...，這個 they有問題嗎?

E Because some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly and others look quite  dissimilar, this fact highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably

为什么E呢？我觉得becase，this fact逻辑表达有问题……请指教……
