106. Marconi’s conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation; instead, it is precisely the opposite, a tool for communicating  with a large, public audience.
(A) Marconi’s conception of the radio was as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation;  instead, it is
(B) Marconi conceived of the radio as a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, but which is
(C) Marconi conceived of the radio as a tool for private conversation that could substitute for the telephone; instead, it has become
(D) Marconi conceived of the radio to be a tool for private conversation, a substitute for the telephone, which has become
(E) Marconi conceived of the radio to be a substitute for the telephone, a tool for private conversation, other than what it is,

答案：C

这道题我被A项强大的平行结构，和我对it指代的不确定打败了，我选了它。其实，我对C项it的指代也不是很确定。
虽然有人说，遵循Verb.>Adj.>Noun.，A项差于C项，但是这是致命的吗？

131. Over 75 percent of the energy produced in France derives from nuclear power, while in Germany it is just over 33 percent.
(A) while in Germany it is just over 33 percent
(B) compared to Germany, which uses just over 33 percent
(C) whereas nuclear power accounts for just over 33 percent of the energy produced in Germany
(D) whereas just over 33 percent of the energy comes from nuclear power in Germany
(E) compared with the energy from nuclear power in Germany, where it is just over 33 percent
答案：C

这道题让我再次感觉平行不仅仅包括我平时理解的形式上的平行。按照Ron的话说，平行也可以是相应部分的平行。比如，这里对比中，主语宾语的转换，但是相应部分还是很对应的。

我的问题是：

106 C项算平行吗？这是什么平行？还是它已经放弃了形式上的任何平行，只追求句子意思的对比。

从楼主写的分析看来，LZ做题很善于思考呀~~向楼主学习~~
不知道楼主有没有看过BABY姐的帖子，对语法问题分析得十分到位~~这里推荐给楼主http://forum.chasedream.com/GMAT_Preparation/thread-646901-1-1.html
BABY就一再强调做语法题逻辑为王！就是要从逻辑意思出发。

106题我觉得从意思上来讲就可以看出A选项的问题，A选项分解开来是
Marconi’s conception of the radio   was   as a substitute for the telephone
不知道楼主看出问题没有，这种表达已经不再是原文所要表的的意思了。

其实所谓的   遵循Verb.>Adj.>Noun 也不是绝对的~~之所以有这样的结论，都是因为在错误地表达方式下，会曲解想要表达的意思。

比如BABY姐举过的例子
i saw him passing though the street.     表达准确
i expected him passing though the street.    
这里表达就不准确了，因为在这个句子中，passing作为动名词修饰him, expect 的宾语是him.
但我们知道，这个句子实际要表达的意思是expect the actiong that “he pass the street”
这就是为什么我们会说 i expected that he ...
同样道理，为什么往往expection of ...doing...这样的结构是错误的，也是因为其没有表达出期待一个动作的含义。这或许就是为什么会有动词优先于名词的说法吧。但千万不要背这样的结论呦，具体问题具体分析就好了，意思理解了，就不用背这些条条框框了~~

另外，该题C选项和后半句也是很平行的呀~~

恩恩，收到。谢谢呀。我最近发现，我做题真不太注意句子意思。
