后面发重复了。。。。不好意思啊，辛苦大家啦

imluisfigo

你太狠了一下子那么多问题,看到最后一题第一题已经忘了有木有...

9. are 和 represent当然不一样, are是系动词. 复数可以做一件单数的事情, 比如此处他们represent了一个单数的principle, 但复数不能"是"一个单数

11. 主语是lack

14. 首先carry on and be看上去有点罗嗦, carry on as 会好一点; 其次was going to看上去他们在讨论这个人是否"即将"成为, 而不是"应该"成为, 意思是不一样的, 所以was going to有点不符合逻辑

21. BCD你多做点题目以后这种选项可以秒杀
actions which have been approved VS. actions approved 后面这种用法用词简洁所以完胜. A我找出最大的问题是death不需要approve, 别的好像都没问题. E就规避了A的问题

24. A是8个仅存的xxxxxx之一, E是 8个xxxxx中唯一的一个, 一个什么?

26. 最后一个词 their prey 是prairie dogs的同位语, their指代的应该是ferrets而不是numbers, 所以主语一定要是ferrets, 于是可以秒选A

27. GMAT语法里where是就近指代的, 选C的话后面一串东西都用来修饰the cold, dry polar regions, 存在逻辑错误
