  GMAT測驗:和,即協調,即各類幹系的同一,天人合一,都是說這個事理。GMAT語法測驗中到處表現著“和”的哲理。重要考核趨向是從形合到意合。

  第一類 :李代桃僵——以非並列構造連詞手腕引發意合

  老PREP 60.

  Mideast immigrants' rates of entrepreneurship exceed virtually every other immigrant group in the increasingly diverse United States economy.

  A. Mideast immigrants' rates of entrepreneurship exceed

  B. Mideast immigrants are exhibiting rates of entrepreneurship exceeding

  C. Immigrants from the Mideast exhibit rates of entrepreneurship exceeding those of

  D. The rates of entrepreneurship in immigrants from the Mideast exceed

  E. The rates of Mideast immigrants' entrepreneurship exceeds those of

  本題的題眼在於“exceed”,實在這是一個隱含的比擬,A 跨越B,一個隱含條件是A和B需如果對等的事物。以此切入,可知本題是兩個rates舉行比擬,以是those of必定要湧現。易患準確選項C。

  延長:既然exceed有這類意合,那末以是隱含了比擬的動詞是不是都應當引發咱們的小心?surpass、overweight……

  新PREP 220. (29238-!-item-!-188;#058&003590) (GWD-6-Q31)

  The fact of some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably on a spectrum of genetic relatedness.

  A. The fact of some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably

  B. That some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly while others look quite dissimilar highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely that they vary considerably

  C. With some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar, it highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely considerable variation

  D. With some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar, it is a fact that highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely a considerable variation

  E. Because some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly and others look quite dissimilar, this fact highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably

  此題看點在於命題老頭對原句精巧的改寫。請看:That some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly while others look quite dissimilar. 意思上是否是即是that they vary considerably? 以是這個句子的原貌是:

  That some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly while others look quite dissimilar, namely that they vary considerably,(到此處為主語) highlights(謂語) an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs。

  此處,namely引發了一個意合,請求兩真個情勢只管即便同等。那末,為啥讀者讀到的末了版本的句子和上面這個分歧呢?緣故原由很簡略,便是命題者根據防止主語太長的原則,把namely背面的半截移到了句子末了,進一步加大了題目標難度。這一招在別的標題也湧現過,請看這題:

  GWD-11-Q33:

  After more than four decades of research and development, a new type of jet engine is being tested that could eventually propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or help boost cargoes into space at significantly lower costs than current methods permit.

  A. tested that could eventually propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or help

  B. tested that could eventually have the capability of propelling aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or to help

  C. tested, eventually able to propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours, or helping

  D. tested, and it eventually could propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or helping

  E. tested, and it could eventually have the capability to propel aircraft anywhere in the world within two hours or help

  that從句現實上潤飾的是engine,但是被挪後了,目標也是為了削減主語的長度。

  延長:老頭連namely都能編出意合的標題,以是請必定留意能表達出雙方相稱幹系的東東,如be動詞,A means B等等。

  第二類:暗渡陳倉—情勢並列疏松,邏輯呼應慎密

  188. (28112-!-item-!-188;#058&002759) (GWD-7-Q33)

  The health benefits of tea have been the subject of much research; in addition to its possibilities for preventing and inhibiting some forms of cancer, the brewed leaves of Camellia sinensis may also play a role in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke.

  A. in addition to its possibilities for preventing and inhibiting

  B. in addition to its possibilities to prevent or inhibit

  C. besides the possibility that it prevents and inhibits

  D. besides the possible preventing and inhibiting of

  E. besides possibly preventing or inhibiting

  此題咋看著 in addition to大概besides不曉得怎樣用,由於許多人僵硬地以為主語和in addiction to 以後的器械應當平行,並不然,該題的妙處,也是在於意合,讀者須要斷定,“防治癌癥”這事兒,到底和句子中哪一個處所有資歷組成“意合”?

  假如還沒看出,請許可我重溫一下老頭挪地位的經常使用手法,看看這個被我挪過的句子:The brewed leaves of Camellia sinensis may also play a role in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke, besides possibly preventing or inhibiting some forms of cancer

  這會兒看明確了吧,現實上,他們須要和in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke平行,本題謎底也呼之欲出了。固然,本題另有別的看點,容後再述。

  有了這題的基本,眾人應當會比擬來日誥日PREP內裏眾人一向愁悶的兩題,謎底是怎樣回事,由於, In addition to 到底和誰平行,不是由誰放在主語說了算,而是意思說了算!

  In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting East African cave paintings.

  加粗部門才是真實的平行兩邊。

  (A) Leakey contributed to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting

  (B) Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and by painstakingly documenting

  (C) Leakey was a contributor to archaeology with her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of

  (D) Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and her painstaking documentation of

  (E) Leakey's contributions to archaeology include discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of

  129. (31370-!-item-!-188;#058&004475)

  In addition to her work on the Miocene hominid fossil record, Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology through her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and through her painstaking documentation of East African cave paintings.

  (A) Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology through her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and through her painstaking documentation of

  (B) Mary Leakey contributed to archaeology by her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting

  (C) Mary Leakey was a contributor to archaeology by discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and with her painstaking documentation of

  (D) Mary Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovery of the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstakingly documenting

  (E) Mary Leakey's contributions to archaeology include her discovering the earliest direct evidence of hominid activity and painstaking documentation of

  第三類:出奇制勝——以形合誘敵,以意合擊之

  197. (31514-!-item-!-188;#058&005971) (GWD-8-Q20)

  Not only did the systematic clearing of forests in the United States create farmland (especially in the Northeast) and gave consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture, but it also caused erosion and very quickly deforested whole regions.

  A. Not only did the systematic clearing of forests in the United States create farmland (especially in the Northeast) and gave consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture, but it also

  B. Not only did the systematic clearing of forests in the United States create farmland (especially in the Northeast), which gave consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture, but also

  C. The systematic clearing of forests in the United States, creating farmland (especially in the Northeast) and giving consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture, but also

  D. The systematic clearing of forests in the United States created farmland (especially in the Northeast) and gave consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture, but it also

  E. The systematic clearing of forests in the United States not only created farmland (especially in the Northeast), giving consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture, but it

  此題輕易先入為主消除沒有not only but also的選項。現實上已犯了一個毛病:誰告知你這個句子是並列幹系了?現實上這句先後是遷移轉變幹系,選的謎底是D。固然,本題也能夠經由過程殺滅別的選項得到謎底。要誇大的是防止先入為主這類毛病的做題習氣。

  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.

  A. Thelonious Monk, who was a jazz pianist and composer, produced a body of work both rooted

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

  C. Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, who produced a body of work rooted

  D. Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work that was rooted

  E. Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk produced a body of work rooted both

  同上理,防止上來就斷定人家必用both …and構造。人家可以不消。同時這題也能夠看到一些西席引誘考生不須要思惟進程就做出剖斷的所謂“命題者偏好”是何等軟弱。D選項用的恰是所謂“偏好”中不偏向的從句做定語。

  老PREP 1. (24465-!-item-!-188;#058&000982)

  To meet the rapidly rising market demand for fish and seafood, suppliers are growing fish twice as fast as their natural growth rate, cutting their feed allotment by nearly half and raising them on special diets.

  (A) their natural growth rate, cutting their feed allotment

  (B) their natural growth rate, their feed allotment cut

  (C) growing them naturally, cutting their feed allotment

  (D) they grow naturally, cutting their feed allotment

  (E) they grow naturally, with their feed allotment cut

  本題輕易依據劃線外的growing 選取C謎底。但是,此題的癥結在於看出劃線外的grow和內的grow意思實在其實不雷同。表面的grow是及物動詞,意思也許相稱於“養”,內裏的grow是不及物動詞,意思為“發展”,一個“naturally”已提醒了咱們,這個grow不是被人養的grow。故本題選取D。

  第四類:圍魏救趙——杠桿內裏做文章

  Seldom more that 40 feet wide and 12 feet deep, but it ran 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, the Erie Canal connected the Hudson River at Albany to the Great Lakes at Buffalo, providing the port of New York City with a direct water link to the heartland of the North American continent.

  1. Seldom more than 40 feet wide and 12 feet deep, but it ran 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, the Erie Canal connected

  2. Seldom more than 40 feet wide or 12 feet deep but running 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, the Erie Canal connected

  It was seldom more than 40 feet wide and 12 feet deep, and ran 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, but the Erie Canal, connecting

  The Erie Canal was seldom more than 40 feet wide or 12 feet deep and it ran 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, which connected

  The Erie Canal, seldom more than 40 feet wide and 12 feet deep, but running 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, connecting

  看到老頭的小行動了嗎?考生惠顧著揣摩並列構造的雙方了,卻疏忽了串連他們的“杠桿”。現實上串連雙方的連詞通報了兩頭分歧的邏輯幹系。對應本題,準確的串連應當是or...but。由於前半句是否認句,而兩句之間是遷移轉變幹系。

  另上文另有兩題亦有此征象。

  The fact of some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably on a spectrum of genetic relatedness.

  A. The fact of some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably

  B. That some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly while others look quite dissimilar highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely that they vary considerably

  C. With some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar, it highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely considerable variation

  D. With some fraternal twins resembling each other greatly and others looking quite dissimilar, it is a fact that highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely a considerable variation

  E. Because some fraternal twins resemble each other greatly and others look quite dissimilar, this fact highlights an interesting and often overlooked feature of fraternal-twin pairs, namely they vary considerably

  經由上文唧唧歪歪的用namely的意合做法,這時是否是有種四兩撥千斤的感到?

  The health benefits of tea have been the subject of much research; in addition to its possibilities for preventing and inhibiting some forms of cancer, the brewed leaves of Camellia sinensis may also play a role in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke.

  A. in addition to its possibilities for preventing and inhibiting

  B. in addition to its possibilities to prevent or inhibit

  C. besides the possibility that it prevents and inhibits

  D. besides the possible preventing and inhibiting of

  E. besides possibly preventing or inhibiting

  眾人看出and 和or用法帶來的意思差別嗎? 一個是同時湧現,一個是二選一。而防備和醫治兩個行動弗成能同時湧現,以是只能選取or。
