GMAT备考限定性修饰的对比分析2

信息来源:网络  发布时间:2012-01-30

  192. Cajuns speak a dialect brought to southern Louisiana by the four thousand Acadians who migrated there in 1755; their language is basically seventeenth-century French to which has been added English, Spanish, and Italian words.

  (A) to which has been added English, Spanish, and Italian words
 

  (B) added to which is English, Spanish, and Italian words
 

  (C) to which English, Spanish, and Italian words have been added
 

  (D) with English, Spanish, and Italian words having been added to it(C)
 

  (E) and, in addition, English, Spanish, and Italian words are added
 

  虽然这里OG没有对D中with…it的结构提出质疑,但我相信这也是错误的原因之一。
 

  2. 当把with放在句末做修饰的时候要很小心,因为with既可以做修饰,又可以做伴随,所以会有歧义。
 

  212. The Baldrick Manufacturing Company has for several years followed a policy aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving the efficiency of its distribution system.
 

  (A) aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving
 

  (B) aimed at the decreasing of operating costs and to improve
 

  (C) aiming at the decreasing of operating costs and improving
 

  (D) the aim of which is the decreasing of operating costs and improving(A)
 

  (E) with the aim to decrease operating costs and to improve
 

  Also, with the aim... improve can easily be construed as referring to the Baldrick Manufacturing Company and so does not refer unequivocally to policy.With在句子的谓语动词之后,特别是在句末,跟在名词后面,很容易引起歧义,因为分不清究竟限定修饰名词,还是做谓语的伴随。
 

  但当with前面的名词是特指,不可以被限定性修饰,这个禁忌就不存在。

  56. Architects and stonemasons, huge palace and temple clusters were built by the Maya without benefit of the wheel or animal transport.

  (A) huge palace and temple clusters were built by the Maya without benefit of the wheel or animal transport

  (B) without the benefits of animal transport or the wheel, huge palace and temple clusters were built by the Maya
 

  (C) the Maya built huge palace and temple clusters without the benefit of animal transport or the wheel
 

  (D) there were built, without the benefit of the wheel or animal transport, huge palace and temple clusters by the Maya (C)
 

  (E) were the Maya who, without the benefit of the wheel or animal transport, built huge palace and temple clusters
 

  这个without没有歧义,肯定做伴随。因为the Maya不可能被限定(Maya人就是Maya人,不能说什么样的Maya人造了…言下之意,还有另外一部分Maya人没有参与建造,而句子本身要表达的意思是整体Maya人,即使要对其进行修饰,也只能是非限定性修饰。) 另外还有一些因为是特指而不会引起歧义的例子:
 

  128. New hardy varieties of rice show promise of pro-ducing high yields without the costly requirements of irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer by earlier high-yielding varieties.
 

  (A) requirements of irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer by earlier high-yielding varieties

  (B) requirements by earlier high-yielding varieties of application of commercial fertilizer and irrigation
 

  (C) requirements for application of commercial fertilizer and irrigation of earlier high-yielding varieties
 

  (D) application of commercial fertilizer and irriga-tion that was required by earlier high-yielding varieties
 

  (E) irrigation and application of commercial fertil-izer that were required by earlier high-yielding varieties
 

  146. A patient accusing a doctor of malpractice will find it difficult to prove damage if there is a lack of some other doctor to testify about proper medical proce-dures.
 

  (A) if there is a lack of some other doctor totestify
 

  (B) unless there will be another doctor to testify
 

  (C) without another doctor's testimony
 

  (D) should there be no testimony from some other doctor (C)
 

  (E) lacking another doctor to testify
