og 204(大全396）：我看不懂og的解释

kathy8446

because of 是不是有什么特别的意思？

OG11里解释C说，because of suggests that crossbreeding has occurred because the steers have already acquired certain characteristics.

难道只要是because of后面用了分词的，就是表示已经发生？

请教：看了以前的解释还是不太明白

ETS解释：Choice C causes a misreading, suggesting that the steers’ acquisition has caused the crossbreeding.

C的确错误，但是上边这句话让我困惑。我觉得because of 后边的重心应该是steers，acquiring certain characteristics是steers的一个restrictive modifier。现在分词的这种情况以前出现很多次了，难道我一直理解错误？按照ets的意思，steers是acquiring的modifier,假设这种理解正确，那么此时acquiring后边还可以接object吗？

大家都说acquire是主动获得，可是我在longman上查了，那上面的意思好像就是获得，不强调主观愿望要去获得啊

1
formal to obtain something by buying it or being given it （可见可以是被给于某东东而获得）

Manning hoped to acquire valuable works of art as cheaply as possible.

She has acquired an email address and a site on the WorldWide Web.

2
to get or gain something

The college acquired a reputation for very high standards.（显然college不能自己主观要获得reputation吧？）

这到底怎么理解啊？？？

以下是引用zhoushao在2005-7-12 18:37:00的发言：

这道题个这么久我还是有个疑惑，

In A, in part that does not grammatically connect the underlined portion to the first part of the sentence (the independent clause).

OG说，这里是因为in part that 不能引导独立从句，那么为什么OG208中in that 就可以引导从句呢

208. Teratomas are unusual forms of cancer because they are composed of tissues such as tooth and bone not normally found in the organ in which the tumor appears.

(A) because they are composed of tissues such as tooth and bone

(B) because they are composed of tissues like tooth and bone that are

(C) because they are composed of tissues, like tooth and bone, tissues

(D) in that their composition, tissues such as tooth and bone, is（E）

(E) in that they are composed of tissues such as tooth and bone, tissues

难道是in that 和in part that 有区别吗？我怎么认为没有呢，还是因为204中的那句话我理解有问题

这个我可以告诉你 in that 是非常正式的用法,可以翻译成"具体表现在"
in part that 应该和in that不是一个东西

自己在顶一下，谁来帮我解释解释啊

should只能表示"应该"的语气么,怎么我好象在那道题里曾经看到should有表示对未来进行预测的用法,所以就选了D,之前还以为本题是考察的是平行对称结构和should的特殊用法呢.请NN指教
