out of america's fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.
a  things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing
b  things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing
c  things that are antiques has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring
d  antique things have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing
e  antique things has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring
答案是B 为什么bring前面的谓语动词不是复数？不是应该修饰styles么？



as a result of the ground-breaking work of barbara mcclintock, many scientists now believe that all of the information encoded in 50000 to 100000 of the different genes found in a human cell are contained in merely three percent of the cell's DNA
a  50000 to 100000 of the different genes found in a human cell are contained in merely
b  50000 to 100000 of the human cell's different genes are contained in a mere
c  the 50000 to 100000 different genes found in human cells are contained in merely
d  50000 to 100000 of human cell's different genes is contained in merely
e  the 50000 to 100000 different genes found in a human cell is contained in a mere
想问一下 D E选项中 50000 to 100000 of human cell's different genes和the 50000 to 100000 different genes found in a human cell 的用法在GMAT中有什么区别 上过xdf说 有类似A OF B'S这样的结构就基本错误 是这样么？ 为什么这个结构是错的？

第一个问题： 主语是a market，因此用单数

第二个问题：

XDF之所以说 A of B's 这个结构基本是错的因为 B's 本来就是所有格结构，本来就是sth of B
A of B's 换句话说就是A of sth of B  因此A和这里的这个sth可能重复，造成语义混乱，比如OG例题经常有 that of his own
that of XX's 而that 和所有格所省略的东西其实是同一个东西
但这句话的未划线部分显然已经告诉你XDF这个说法未必正确，因为 3% of the cell's DNA 在GMAT中不认为是错误表达，否则也不会放在未划线了。

genes found in cell
和cell's different genes最大的区别就是前者表达的更清晰准确，明确的说了这些genes是在cell里面被发现的，而cell's genes并未有“发现”这个含义在，因此B,D选项在这里去掉了一个并没有语法错误的实意动词，改变了原文的意思。

谢谢mslancaster 本来正想短消息你这些问题的
