求教 GWD-TN-13 Q13 各个选项的错误

teddybearj4

T-9-Q13.987-184
Building large new hospitals in the bistate area would constitute a wasteful use of resources, on the basis of avoidance of duplicated facilities alone.

A.on the basis of avoidance of duplicated facilities alone
B.on the grounds of avoiding duplicated facilities alone
C.solely in that duplicated facilities should be avoided
D.while the duplication of facilities should be avoided
E.if only because the duplication of facilities should be avoided

OA：E

这题实在是不解……看了很多帖子没有搞清楚它的各项的错误。希望各位童鞋们、NN们能伸出援手共同把这几项的错误挖出来呀！！！

翻译：在两州地区建造大型新兴医院会造成资源的浪费，除非设施的复制能够避免 。
1、A项 on the basis of 的错误？
自我解决：看了一个帖子on the basis of X，X要是确实发生的事情，在这里与语意不符，后面是虚拟。
2、B项 on the grounds of 的错误？
不懂求解答呀！
3、A/B alone的错误？
不懂求解答呀！
4、duplicated facilities和duplication of facilities的错误？
自我解决：这里逻辑语意倾向与用前者，是设备的复制，而不是复制的设备。
5、D选项 while的错误？
不懂求解答呀！
6、E选项 （subjective mood）should be avoided
自我解决：这里后面是未发生的事情，要用虚拟语气，所以用should be avoided。

重点是2、3、5号问题呀~求解答！！！！！！其他的问题也希望TX能提提意见！！！！谢谢谢谢啦！！！！

上邪

啊这道我总结过。。。亲爱的帮你粘一下
1.A&B： the phrases on the bases of and on the grounds of don't make sense.
on the basis of means that A happened first, then building area constitute wastes happened
on the grounds means A is the reasoned of building area constitute 说明A也是发生在B之前的

3.alone 修饰模糊
in this sentence we want to say A is the only reason of B, so we try use alone here to modify "on the basis"or"on the grounds" however, alone is closed to facilities, 优先修饰了duplicated facilities

4. 恩 duplicated facilities mean facilities that have already duplicated

5. while changes the meaning. it means two things happened together

6. would 只有两种用法 1、past tense of will 2.subjunctive mood
很显然 前面有would 后面必须是虚拟

另外亲爱的 你翻译那里有点小问题 if only 是sufficient 不是only if除非

1楼说的很清楚 这题我已错了两次了

http://forum.chasedream.com/GMAT_SC/post.html?action=ReQuote&threadid=400582&postID=14054320

这里ABC的duplicated facilities的用法全部都是错误的。因为既然已经用了完成时态的duplicated，还怎麽避免呢？

这里E的含义是这样：如果仅仅因为设施的重复应该避免的话，那么在这个地方建医院是浪费资源。

这里lz可以比较下duplicated facilities（已重复的设施）和duplicatiion of facilities（设施的重复）之间的细微区别

if only because是一个习惯用语 表示for no better reason than that
I clean the kitchen floor  because it's dirty. = I do the cleaning for this reason: The floor is dirty at that time.

I clean the kitchen floor
only
because it's dirty. = I do the cleaning for this reason, and only this reason; I don't do it for any other reason.

I clean the kitchen floor if
only
because I've gotten into the habit. = I do the cleaning for no really good reason. I do not do the cleaning because the floor is necessarily dirty, for example. Maybe IF I do the cleaning, the real reason is ONLY/simply/just BECAUSE I'm in the habit of doing so, whether the floor is dirty or not.

1.逻辑上分析，这里要avoid的是“重复建造”，而不是“设施”，C中facilities should be avoided逻辑上不对
E中duplication should be avoided，逻辑上才正确。

2.in that和because的区别，参见http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&replyID=95666&id=14357&skin=0

3.C中的while不能用来解释原因

挺难的一道题目！
GMAC现在的题目越来越喜欢拿略为有点问题的，或者看上去很不舒服的选项作为正确答案了。
依然是以句意为根本：
在哪里哪里盖大医院很浪费，仅仅从应该避免重复建设这一点上看（这么做）就是浪费。
B错是因为on the ground of 后面跟的是标准
可以参照下面两个例子看看 on the ground of race是个既常用又标准的用法。
Discrimination between human beings on the ground of race, colour or ethnic origin is an offence to human dignity
The survey clearly demonstrates that discrimination on the ground of sexual orientation and gender identity undermines young LGBT people’s capacity to be socially included and to become active citizens.
所以B如果改为 on the ground of efficiency of facilities应该就没问题了
E真的不容易选出来。我也把它排除掉了，因为if because两个站在一起造成句子结构不完整。但是看了别的坛子的讨论，老美们似乎不觉得这是个大问题，if only仅仅修饰because，与单独的if引导从句不同。

Choices A and B are unclear and imprecise: on the basis of avoidance… and on the grounds of avoiding … do not present reasons that support the statement in the main clause, and alone seems illogically to modify duplicated facilities. Also, duplicated facilities in A, B, and C identifies the problem with the facilities that have been duplicated, not with the act of duplicating facilities; for example, C apparently advises people to avoid facilities that have been duplicated. In D, while establishes no logical relation between the main clause and the rest of the sentence. E is best: if only because introduces a reason for the preceding statement, and the remainder of the answer choice is logically worded. The question is difficult.



Longman:



if only: used to give a reason for something, although you think it is not a good one
example:  Media studies is regarded as a more exciting subject, if only because it's new.
