5. significantly reduce the risk of heart attacks as well as aiding

答案C

OG解释A中aid是名词? 怎么判别出来的?

rt316

aid作动词只能是及物动词，于是只能直接跟名词；而A中aid后是一个介词结构，所以这里的aid只能作名词。

E>. ets说"lacks grammatical parallelism of 'may reduce...and aid'"

刚刚查了一下Longman,看到以下例句：The organization gives help and support to people in need, as well as raising money for local charities. 而且明确了词组as well as doing something的说法，即E就算改成significantly reduce the risk of heart attacks as well as aid也是不符合语法的。

这么说ets就是基本上不支持as well as + V. 的这种用法，除非doing sth as well as doing sth, NN们怎么看这个问题？

基本上是吧，你提得看法我同意。但話說回來，如果C可以

也就是and 可以解決問題，我相信基於conciseness這個基本原則，ETS是不可能會讓你選E的

建议查下longman中as well as的意思,看看本题的逻辑意思,就知道as well as在本题肯定不能使用无论语法多正确

其实当时很难决定到底aid for是个固定用法还是误用名词，因为当时想不起来aid是及物动词，不知道有没有什么技巧

或者只能题海战术，解决动词固定用法这个难题？

aid也可以做不及物动词吧

不可以， AID只能做及物动词。加了介词后就作为名词
