65. In a plan to stop the erosion of East Coast beaches,
the Army Corps of Engineers proposed building
parallel to shore a breakwater of rocks that would rise
six feet above the waterline and act as a buffer, so
that it absorbs the energy of crashing waves and
protecting the beaches.
(A) act as a buffer, so that it absorbs
(B) act like a buffer so as to absorb
(C) act as a buffer, absorbing
(D) acting as a buffer, absorbing
(E) acting like a buffer, absorb


C选项当时我立马就排除了……我认为absorbing修饰的对象不清晰，有可能修饰的the Army Corps of Engineers……这么理解有什么问题吗？


68. The fi rst trenches that were cut into a 500-acre site at
Tell Hamoukar, Syria, have yielded strong evidence for
centrally administered complex societies in northern
regions of the Middle East that were arising
simultaneously with but independently of the more
celebrated city-states of southern Mesopotamia, in
what is now southern Iraq.



(A) that were cut into a 500-acre site at Tell
Hamoukar, Syria, have yielded strong evidence
for centrally administered complex societies in
northern regions of the Middle East that were
arising simultaneously with but
(B) that were cut into a 500-acre site at Tell
Hamoukar, Syria, yields strong evidence that
centrally administered complex societies in
northern regions of the Middle East were arising
simultaneously with but also
(C) having been cut into a 500-acre site at Tell
Hamoukar, Syria, have yielded strong evidence
that centrally administered complex societies in
northern regions of the Middle East were arising
simultaneously but
(D) cut into a 500-acre site at Tell Hamoukar, Syria,
yields strong evidence of centrally administered
complex societies in northern regions of the
Middle East arising simultaneously but also
(E) cut into a 500-acre site at Tell Hamoukar, Syria,
have yielded strong evidence that centrally
administered complex societies in northern
regions of the Middle East arose simultaneously
with but



自己在做这题的时候，把evidence that和evidence of作为了一个区分判断点，我认为前者比后者好。但是OG的解释里头没有提到这一点，是不是说没有这个判断依据的存在呢？


72.
as a means to 和 as a means of的用法有什么区别？


73


appear as 和 appear to的用法有什么不同？ 个人认为前者只加名词。但是OG73的题目里头接了equiped to，不是个名词。




88.Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and
composer, produced a body of work both rooted in the
stride-piano tradition of Willie (The Lion) Smith and
Duke Ellington, yet in many ways he stood apart from
the mainstream jazz repertory.


(B) Thelonious Monk, the jazz pianist and composer,
produced a body of work that was rooted both



OG说：B Th e appositive（the jazz pianist and composer） introduces wordiness and
unnecessary grammatical complexity.
我擦，我觉得很顺啊，这怎么就wordy了，不合语法了？

65 题   我前几遍开始翻看OG的时候 也会走形式，觉得S+V+O, ing 形式的 就存在修饰歧义的问题，关键得看逻辑主语，理清谁把谁到底怎么样了 解决这种题就木有问题了。

68 题   如果of 后面的东西可以用一个句子很简洁的按照主谓宾的形式表达出来那么用of being ,之类的词在GMAT中会被认为成古怪的表达，你可以翻看12 13 版任何一题，这个我研究过。

72 题   需要看 主语 as a means to 的逻辑主语是可以主动发出这个动作的，as a means of 通常是被动来完成。

73 题   这道题我印象里侧重点是appear 而不是appeared ,因为后面的indicates 暗示了时态。appear as 和appear to,跟后面题目中 reach for 和reach of .之类细节的研究得具体看题目，猜想题目到底想让你用哪个，这个也是我薄弱的地方，to 一般我认为 暗含为了目的而去怎么怎么样。

88 题  这道题是both 的问题，硬要说wordy的话 这句话可以不要逗号的东西改成一个同位语就OK。

OG 是个好东西。研究透了比看其他的资料好百倍。

65题，ing前面有逗号，修饰的最靠近的主谓结构。

我觉得不存在优先修饰谁或谁，得看修饰对象。
