标题Re: [SC]文法求救 By 1940, the pilot Jacqueline
时间Sun Mar 12 00:42:02 2017
※ 引述《chiao999 (chiao)》之铭言:
: 695
: By 1940, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran held seventeen official national and international speed records, earned at a time when aviation was still so new that many of the planes she flew were of dangerously experimental design.
: Earned 是修饰record 不是应该要连在一起没逗点吗?
: 1. earned 前面没有逗点的话正确吗?
: 2. 改成以下分词子句正确吗?
: By 1940 aviation was still so new, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran, earning seventeen official national and international speed records at a time, flew many of the planes were of dangerously experimental design.
1. 可以,被动分词是可以修饰逗号前面的第一个名词
2. 我会先说,除非是明显的文法错误自己改正(像是主动词一致或时态)
否则自己改句子来讨论正确与否是没意义的
一来 GMAT SC 的答案有时不一定是在讨论正确性,
而是比较上来说哪个句意较佳 (且有时是 GMAC 说了算)
所以自己改句子来讨论 其实意义不大
不过回归原 po 所写,我们看以下正确句子:
By 1940, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran held seventeen official national and
international speed records, earned at a time when aviation was still so new
that many of the planes she flew were of dangerously experimental design.
句意为: 1940 年, JC 有了 17 项正式的国际飞行纪录,这些纪录是在
飞行观念还在初始阶段,许多他飞行的飞机还是危险的实验机取得的纪录
(中文翻译不够好请见谅)
原 po 句子:
By 1940 aviation was still so new, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran, earning
seventeen official national and international speed records at a time,
flew many of the planes were of dangerously experimental design
文法基本上应该有误:
1. 两个句子没连接词
2. flew 和 were 一句话有两个动词
句意为: 1940 年,飞行观念还在初始阶段,JC,取得了17项正式的国际飞行纪录,
使用了许多很危险的实验机做飞行
这样的句意会和本来想表达的正确句意有不小的差距
1. 原本正确答案使用 so that 连接了两个观念
aviation was so new --> planes were of dangerously......
而原 po 的句子将这两个句子隔离太远,没有连接
2. 请注意核心句意尽可能 (但违反并不见得是错误) 用主要动词 (main verb) 表达
正确答案将取得正式纪录放入核心句 (held 17 records)
而这句也的确是这句话的核心观念
原 po 的句子将 "flew many planes" or "planes were of dangerously"
这两个其中一个当核心句 (因为两个动词我看不出哪一个是原 po 要表达的)
但不管是哪一个 相信都不是原句的核心句意
当然,(1) 取得 17 项飞行纪录,(2) 是用还是危险的实验机达成
这两个观念应该是相辅相成,强调这纪录的可贵
但我想比较上来说,飞行纪录还是核心句意
最後,我还是建议专心把 SC 的五个答案完整讨论出,
会比自己想其他可能性来的有效率许多
