備考GMAT語法：what從句
GMAT的SC考題中經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)what從句，這是很多同學(xué)的痛點，帶有what從句的選項有時候?qū)Γ袝r候錯，基本沒有很強(qiáng)的猜題規(guī)律的，需要我們在具體題目當(dāng)中去判斷。下面小編為大家講講該如何去思考GMAT SC中的what從句，希望對大家有所幫助，更多消息請關(guān)注應(yīng)屆畢業(yè)生網(wǎng)。
其實what從句就是一個名詞性從句(看不懂這個術(shù)語的童鞋就忽略吧，并無大礙)，what我們稱之為關(guān)系代詞(看不懂的依然可以忽略)，既然是代詞，一定要有所指代的，所以我們在判斷what從句對還是不對，第一步就是找出what從句在句子當(dāng)中語義上應(yīng)該指代誰。
舉個栗子：
What you said is right這句話里面what就是指代你說的話，所以這句話完全等同于The word that you said is right. 大家注意到?jīng)]，后面的句子其實就是把what的指代對象the word直接給出了，然后加一個that(如果是人加who/whom)變成定語從句，這樣句子是不是好理解很多。
沒看懂??!!再來一個。
He is not what he was five years ago.還是一樣首先找出what在句子當(dāng)中指代什么，然后加上that/whom，其他部分照抄，所以這句話等同于He is not the man whom he was five years ago。
好啦，咱們再來幾道真題：
The ancient Anasazi harvested such native desert vegetation as the purple-flowered bee plant, what they now commonly call wild spinach in northern Arizona and other parts of the southwestern United States.
A. what they now commonly call
B. a plant that they now commonly call
C. now commonly called
D. and is now commonly called
E. which it is now commonly called
這題當(dāng)中A選項里面的what從句的what指代啥????想十秒。。。。
對!就是plant，所以A選項完全等同于a plant that they now commonly call，咦。。。。是不是就是B選項，所以秒排AB了，因為能選A就能選B，肯定都錯。(我就不仔細(xì)分析每個選項啦哈，這個專題只是幫助大家了解what從句而已)
Even though more money was removed out of stock funds in July as in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as an industry trade group had previously estimated.
A. as in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as
B. as had been in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as what
C. than there was in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as that which
D. than in any month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as
E. than in any other month since October 1987, sales of fund shares in July were not as low as what
這道題E選項里面也有what從句，而且是出現(xiàn)在比較從句當(dāng)中，比較從句。。。。貌似又是很多人的痛，所以E選項算是痛得二次方了：)
這里的what根據(jù)語義判斷，應(yīng)該指代sales of fund shares，所以E選項最后部分等于sales of fund that an industry trade group had previously estimated。這樣as low as前后比較是不是很平行!sales和sales比較，七月份的sales和之前所估計的sales比，所以是對的。
Unearthed in China, fossils of feathered dinosaurs offer the most dramatic evidence yet discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds.
A. offer the most dramatic evidence yet discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds
B. offer evidence more dramatic than what has yet been discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds
C. offer more dramatic evidence of the close evolutionary relationship than any yet discovered between dinosaurs and birds
D. have offered the most dramatic evidence of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds that have yet been discovered
E. have offered more dramatic evidence than any that has yet been discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds
這一題B選項里面的what應(yīng)該指代的是evidence,，所以than后面的what從句等于the evidence that has yet been discovered......這樣看than前后比較對象也很平行啊，evidence和evidence比啊，那為啥是錯的呢??!!!因為than后面的evidence前面應(yīng)該加上一個other，比的時候要把自身排除出去，這里的比較級其實表達(dá)的是最高級的意思。
While digging in the Egyptian desert, huge fossil bones have been found by paleontologists, which appears to have been the second most massive dinosaur that ever lived.
A. huge fossil bones have been found by paleontologists, which appears to have been
B. huge fossil bones have been found by paleontologists, which appear to be from
C. it appears that paleontologists have found huge fossil bones that are from
D. paleontologists have found huge fossil bones from what appears to be
E. paleontologists have found huge fossil bones, which are from what appear
這道題DE里面都有what，但是注意what后面的動詞appear單復(fù)數(shù)不一樣，這明顯就是考察what的指代，然后決定后面的動詞形式，這里的what根據(jù)句意指代dinosaur，是單數(shù)名詞，所以應(yīng)該用appears.
