2015年gmat考試押題試卷及答案（二）
1. The nineteenth-century chemist Humphry Davy presented the results of his early experiments in his “Essay on Heat and Light,” a critique of all chemistry since Robert Boyle as well as a vision of a new chemistry that Davy hoped to found.
(A) a critique of all chemistry since Robert Boyle as well as a vision of a
(B) a critique of all chemistry following Robert Boyle and also his envisioning of a
(C) a critique of all chemistry after Robert Boyle and envisioning as well
(D) critiquing all chemistry from Robert Boyle forward and also a vision of
(E) critiquing all the chemistry done since Robert Boyle as well as his own envisioning of
答案解析如下：
(A)a critique of all chemistry since Robert Boyle as well as a vision of a
【正確】 “as well as”兩邊比一定連接平行對(duì)象，但“a critique……”和“a vision……”用“as well as”平行在一起，沒(méi)有任何錯(cuò)誤，正確地作同位語(yǔ)修飾了“‘Essay on Heat and Light’”。
【大意】 十九世紀(jì)化學(xué)家Humphry Davy在《Essay on Heat and Light》中敘述了他早期實(shí)驗(yàn)的結(jié)果，這篇文章是對(duì)Robert Boyle之后所有化學(xué)的批評(píng)以及對(duì)Davy希望發(fā)現(xiàn)的新化學(xué)的憧憬。
(B)a critique of all chemistry following Robert Boyle and also his envisioning of a
【錯(cuò)誤】 平行結(jié)構(gòu)：本選項(xiàng)將“a critique”和“his envisioning of”平行在一起，但如(A)所示，“envision”存在相應(yīng)的專有名詞“vision”，因此并不需要使用“envisioning of”這種表達(dá)方式。
(C)a critique of all chemistry after Robert Boyle and envisioning as well
【錯(cuò)誤】 平行結(jié)構(gòu)： “a critique of”是一個(gè)專有化名詞概念，而“envisioning”(由于其后沒(méi)接“of”)僅僅是一個(gè)動(dòng)名詞，兩者邏輯概念不對(duì)等，不應(yīng)平行。
(D)critiquing all chemistry from Robert Boyle forward and also a vision of
【錯(cuò)誤1】 修飾成分：“，critiquing”放在主謂結(jié)構(gòu)“Humphry Davy presented……”的尾部作伴隨狀語(yǔ)，表意遜于(A)中的用“a critique”作修飾"Essay on Heat and Light"的同位語(yǔ)。
【錯(cuò)誤2】 平行結(jié)構(gòu)：類似地“critiquing”和“a vision of”無(wú)法平行。
【錯(cuò)誤3】 簡(jiǎn)潔明了：“and”和“also”之間存在語(yǔ)義重復(fù)。
(E)critiquing all the chemistry done since Robert Boyle as well as his own envisioning of
【錯(cuò)誤1】 修飾成分：見(jiàn)(D)中【錯(cuò)誤1】。
【錯(cuò)誤2】 平行結(jié)構(gòu)：見(jiàn)(B)。
【最優(yōu)解題思路推薦】
只有(A)選項(xiàng)“and”兩端的結(jié)構(gòu)平行且語(yǔ)義合理，因此選擇(A)。
2. According to some analysts, the gains in the stock market reflect growing confidence that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come in for a "soft landing," followed by a gradual increase in business activity.
(A)that the economy will avoid the recession that many had feared earlier in the year and instead come
【正確】 “that ”引導(dǎo)的從句作同位語(yǔ)正確地修飾了“confidence”，敘述了“信息”的具體內(nèi)容，過(guò)去完成時(shí)的“had feared”與“earlier in the year(今年更早些時(shí)候)”語(yǔ)義搭配合理。
【大意】 根據(jù)一些分析師的說(shuō)法，股票市場(chǎng)的利得反映了正在增長(zhǎng)的信心：經(jīng)濟(jì)將避免早些時(shí)候人們擔(dān)憂的衰退并達(dá)到一個(gè)由商業(yè)活動(dòng)逐漸增加跟隨著的“軟著陸”。
(B)in the economy to avoid the recession, what many feared earlier in the year, rather to come
【錯(cuò)誤1】 平行結(jié)構(gòu)：有日常邏輯可知，“to avoid the recession”和“to come”本意上應(yīng)是平行的，但兩個(gè)平行的對(duì)象不能僅僅用“rather”一個(gè)詞連接。
【錯(cuò)誤2】 固定搭配：不存在“confidence in X to do sth.”表達(dá)“對(duì)X做某事有信心”的用法。
(C)in the economy's ability to avoid the recession, something earlier in the year many had feared, and instead to come
【錯(cuò)誤】 平行結(jié)構(gòu)：有日常邏輯可知，“to avoid the recession”和“to come”本意上應(yīng)是平行的，但兩個(gè)平行的對(duì)象不能僅僅用“rather”一個(gè)詞連接。
(D)in the economy to avoid the recession many were fearing earlier in the year, and rather to come
【錯(cuò)誤1】 動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)：“many were fearing”遜于過(guò)去完成時(shí)的“had feared”，因?yàn)?ldquo;had feared”和“earlier in the year”更加搭配——今年更早些時(shí)候，屬于“過(guò)去的過(guò)去”。
【錯(cuò)誤2】 固定搭配：見(jiàn)(B)中【錯(cuò)誤2】。
(E)that the economy will avoid the recession that was feared earlier this year by many, with it instead coming
【錯(cuò)誤1】 動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)：類似地，見(jiàn)(D)中【錯(cuò)誤1】。
【錯(cuò)誤2】 簡(jiǎn)潔明了：在GMAT考察的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)書面英語(yǔ)中，主動(dòng)句簡(jiǎn)潔性優(yōu)于被動(dòng)句，因此“that was feared”簡(jiǎn)潔性遜于(A)中“that many had feared”。
【最優(yōu)解題思路推薦】
(C)中兩個(gè)本應(yīng)平行的“to do”結(jié)構(gòu)沒(méi)有“and”連接，排除，不存在“confidence in X to do sth.”表達(dá)“對(duì)X做某事有信心”的用法，排除(B)、(D)。
(A)比(B)相對(duì)簡(jiǎn)潔，因此選擇(A)。
