Kaplan模考题6

.

6.Uniformed about students’ experience in urban classroom, critics often condemn schools’ performance gauged by an index, such as standardized test scores, that are called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as that in high-level reasoning.

A.      an index, such as standardized test scores, that are called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as

B.      an index, such as standardized test scores, that are called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made

C.      an index, such as standardized test scores, that is called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made

D.     a so-called objective index, such as standardized test scores, that can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made

E.      a so-called objective index, such as standardized test scores, that are quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as that

答案选E  请问that从句是修饰scores还是index?答案解释说A错是因为主谓不一致 迷惑  

还有一题

As the music of legendary composers Cole Porter and Sammy Kahn bear out, many of the best songs to emerge in the 1940’s were based not on topical themes on the day but on more introspective themes such as love and loss.

A.      As the music of legendary composers Cole Porter and Sammy Kahn bear out

B.      As the music of legendary composers Cole Porter and Sammy Kahn bears out

答案是B 解释是music单数所以用bears 这里的bear out 不是创作的意思吗？主语应该是2个人吧

谢谢

KAPLAN的那道题目怎么可能答案是E嘛,要么答案错要么你打错字.

第二题的主语是MUSIC,单数.

KAPLAN的:   a so-called objective index   比 an index 來的清楚且符合句意,如此一來 , 之後對該特別種類指數的列舉才合乎邏輯   .....因此 A,B 文法沒錯,但不如 E 來得好,而C主谓不一致.....最重要的錯來自於結尾的 that  --->這是對的,that指代先前的index ; GMAT 中  what是不易處理的一個字,因為它不需先行詞 ,但無法清楚說明所指代為何,亦不如 THAT來的簡潔, 因此答案就是 E 了

E选项用的是that are quantified......既然that指代先前的index 为什么用are?我还是不明白！

第二题中如果music是主语，但是后面的bear out怎么也应该是被动吧？依然困惑

E肯定是错的.我去书店查了.ARE绝对是错的.不要被误导.

6.Uniformed about students’ experience in urban classroom, critics often condemn schools’ performance gauged by an index, such as standardized test scores, that are called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as that in high-level reasoning.

A.      an index, such as standardized test scores, that are called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as

B.      an index, such as standardized test scores, that are called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made

C.      an index, such as standardized test scores, that is called objective and can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made

D.     a so-called objective index, such as standardized test scores, that can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made

E.      a so-called objective index, such as standardized test scores, that are quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as that

首先分析一下这道题，A.B.D用了that are，所以此时that明确的指向了先行词standardized test scores（refer to OG8）所以和A.B中的called objective 搭配不合理；再看B.C.D中最后的such as what is made，原文举例是要和前面的名词短语对应，所以这里的what is made错误，A中没有that错误，E解决了以上问题，So it's the best answer.

As the music of legendary composers Cole Porter and Sammy Kahn bear out, many of the best songs to emerge in the 1940’s were based not on topical themes on the day but on more introspective themes such as love and loss.

A.      As the music of legendary composers Cole Porter and Sammy Kahn bear out

B.      As the music of legendary composers Cole Porter and Sammy Kahn bears out

中的bear out是证实的意思，主语是music，传奇作曲家CP和SK的音乐证实了...

其实第六题有些问题，是kplan刻意模仿ETS的结果，大家参看OG8的解释就明白了。

关于A.B中的called objective 搭配不合理我还是不太理解，就像OG208  题

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

解释是如果没有tissues, 那么后面的分词可以被认为是修饰tooth and bone！像这类题，that从句后面的内容到底是应该修饰那个范围比较大的，比如OG208tissues还有第六题的 index，还是组成他们的具体内容？我觉得都可以吧，两样东西范围不一样，但是性质都是相同的，所以我就错选成了b答案

谢谢leeon    另外gzql，我查了一下，模考盘上第六题的答案是E

leeon

你举的这个例子很好，你可以再把OG8翻出来，可以看出在A such as B and C, that...的表达种，ETS会将that从句中的that指向A，而不能指向such as后面的B and C，虽然我看不出这种表达为何不可，但是还是适应ETS的表达。所以ETS在解释OG8时说到了主谓不一致；其实这道题按照ETS的思路，确实应该将are改成is；不过我觉得既然后面主谓的单复数有区分，那么指代也就没有了歧义，所以我就把A,B,E中的that指向了standardized test scores,所以我们当然不能说standardized test scores are called objective，其实这题想要表达的意思是 a so-called objective index,不过kaplan模仿功夫又没模到家，所以搞得大家看不太明白。

也就是说Kaplan6如果把E.选项改成      a so-called objective index, such as standardized test scores that are quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as that就和OG208(B) because they are composed of tissues like tooth and bone that are 错的一样拉 按照ETS思路应该都不选

但是6题的D.     a so-called objective index, such as standardized test scores, that can be quantified and overlook less measurable progress, such as what is made 肯定不对

好象就是这样吧 6E还是觉得有些牵强
