GMAT里面出现since, 就是个很明确的信号要用完成时.

另外, 建议ztlbox兄看一下gemj的学习心得：

如果要验证语法现象和规则的话, 以OG和大全优先级最高, google最低. google包罗万象, 什么样的错误都有.

呵呵，以GOOGLE为最低：）

笨笨可可

我觉得最高级存在时候，定语从句应该是不定式充当，而不是that从句。。

所以A。

A March 2000 Census Bureau survey
showed that Mexico accounted for more than a quarter of all
foreign-born residents of the United States, the largest share for any country to contribute since 1890, when about 30 percent of the country’s foreign-born population

    

was from Germany.

    

        

    

A. the largest share for any country to contribute

    

B. the largest share that any country has contributed 正确

    

C. which makes it the largest share for any country to contribute

    

D. having the largest share to be contributed by any country

    

E. having the largest share to have been contributed by any country

这个题目的考察主要是同位语，具体的说是a quarter of all
foreign-born residents of the United States的同位语，一个名词词组的同位语。因此，只能选另外一个名词词组，直接排除D和E，C的问题是which的指代对象是墨西哥人占了很大一部分这件事，但是根据GMAT的语法，which只能指代紧前名词词组中心词，错。A和B比较：B，名词中心词+that定语（从句）；A：just too awkward to be right

A：just too awkward to be right,why?

把A套进去：

    

A March 2000 Census Bureau survey
showed that Mexico accounted for more than a quarter of all
foreign-born residents of the United States, the largest share for any country to contribute since 1890, when about 30 percent of the country’s foreign-born population was from Germany.

这
里A给人的感觉好像是还没有contribute一样，to do
sth给人的感觉就是要去做。实际上句子要表达的是有一个已经contribute的意思，墨西哥已经给美国贡献了1/4的人口，成为了the
largest share that any country has contributed。

当你看不出arkward的时候，你就选那个看上去愚蠢点的选项。比较A和B，那个最可能是对的：往往是那个看上去比较丑陋的——B没有任何超过初中水平的英语成分，同时也就没有任何的漏洞，从字母数量上，B也只比A多两个，所以。。。

嗯，貌似明白了，这个to确实需要明确

应该选B A和B的区别：A动词不定式表是的是动作还没有发生，B已经发生并持续到现在，从时间壮语和逻辑意思都可以看出。个人意见请指正！

干净利索！
