以下是引用携隐在2005-5-21 12:33:00的发言：错的题目如下：
637. Several studies have found that the coronary patients who exercise most actively have half or less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary.
(A) have half or less than half the chance of dying of a heart attack as those who are sedentary
(B) have half the chance, or less, of dying of a heart attack than those who are sedentary do
(C) have half the chance that they will die of a heart attack, or less, than those who are sedentary do
(D) are at least fifty percent less likely to die of a heart attack as those who are sedentary（E）
(E) are at least fifty percent less likely than those who are sedentary to die of a heart attack
这个题目我选C，做的太快了，没有化时间再理解一层。看到E，觉得应该是“什么的50%”的概念，就排除了，但是其实“比什么少50%”的概念表达的是同一个意思啊。C的后半句是没有表达清楚less什么吧，但当时我觉得是不是前面有比较，后面就省略了比较的内容呢？
我觉得这道题考的是are likely to do的表达方式，have the chance that...的表达很awkward.
640. She was a child prodigy, and Clara Schumann developed into one of the greatest pianists of her time.
(A) She was a child prodigy, and Clara Schumann
(B) A child prodigy, Clara Schumann
(C) Child prodigy that she was, Clara Schumann
(D) Clara Schumann has been a child prodigy, and she（B）
(E) Being a child prodigy, Clara Schumann
这个题目当时有想过选B，后来还是选了D。对这种同位语还不是很熟悉，觉得developed是表达了过去完成的意思，而同位语是表达了当时的状态，那么一个child怎么可以完成developed的动作呢？看来同位语还是可以表达“曾经是”的意思。
这道题跟og里architect..., the Maya很象。同位语用法：a, b...或者a, b, ...前一种a修饰b，后一种，b修饰a
1. Since 1986 enrollments of African Americans, American Indians, and Hispanic Americans in fulltime engineering programs in the United States has steadily increased, while the number of other students who enter the field has fallen.
(A) has steadily increased, while the number of other students who enter the field has fallen
(B) has steadily increased, while other students entering the field have declined in number
(C) increased steadily, while there was a decline in the number of other students entering the field
(D) have steadily increased, while the number of other students entering the field has fallen（D）
(E) have steadily increased, while that of other students who enter the field fell
这个题目我选了E。这里出现了时态的一致问题。照理说，前面有since，后面应该用完成时态，但是我以为while后面就可以表达不同的时态了。D我是看到entering就觉得不对，为什么这里用的是现在分词呢？后来看看，觉得是ing分词修饰students而已（表示持续的动作？），主考点还是while后面的时态要和前面的时态保持一致。
E的最大错误在于that无指代，前面enrollments是复数。
