CORRECTIVENESS
I.Logical Fallacies (logical perfection is superior to grammatical imperfection, the first and foremost issue of GMAT grammar is logic)
(i)"Shanghai is bigger than any cities in China."is mistaken because Shanghai cannot be larger than any cities that inclusive of itself. So it should be"Shanghai is bigger than any other cities in China."
(ii)Blind eyesight; visible wavelength are logically flawed arrangement; it should be"blind people","visible radiation"instead.
(iii)Price cannot cause inflation but Price Increase can.
(iv)前后轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系(by transitional words as‘but’etc.)是否成立要看前后的分類標(biāo)
(v)準(zhǔn)是否統(tǒng)一:big measurement→small measurement
III.主謂搭配和代詞指代(七大類型)
(vi)出現(xiàn)句首名(vii)詞+長(zhǎng)串修飾考主謂搭配的可能性很大;
(viii)在英文中永遠(yuǎn)只有主謂搭配,同(ix)位語對(duì)謂語動(dòng)詞單復(fù)(x)數(shù)沒有影響
Five hundred students each have a computer.
Each of five hundred students have a computer.
Leaf and *** material, the most *** parts, Vt.s
Five hundred students, groups each have a computer.
(xi)倒裝句(搞清主語在哪)
a.介詞在句首,b.狀語+句子謂語動(dòng)詞+主語(完全倒裝)
c.極端形容詞或So放在句首
(xii)Never, Whether, What, Should在一個(gè)完整句子做整個(gè)句子的主語,(xiii)謂語動(dòng)作用單數(shù)
(xiv)代詞指(xv)代,同(xvi)樣一句話中相同(xvii)的代詞指(xviii)代相同(xix)的事物:they, them, their在一句話中必須指(xx)代同(xxi)一主體
推論:It在句首做形式主語,后面it不能指代同一主體。如果出現(xiàn)這樣的選項(xiàng),一定錯(cuò)!
(xxii)Exoneration and his freedom例題:泛指(xxiii)和特指(xxiv)不(xxv)能對(duì)稱;代詞是個(gè)特指(xxvi)概念,(xxvii)不(xxviii)能隨意丟失,(xxix)否則句子意思發(fā)生變化。
8GMAT中所有代詞都不用來指代整個(gè)句子,只能是特定的名詞或主體。但是當(dāng)it在句首做形式主語時(shí),可以指代:-
1.后面的不定式
2.后面的that從句,
3.如:It is you who is my friend that…
IV.固定搭配的錯(cuò)誤
(xxx)require somebody to do something that +虛擬語氣省略should of somebody that +虛擬語氣省略should (xxxi)as的固定搭配begin as, depict as, regard as, perceive as, represent as, see as, be prizeless as, be acclaimed as, think of as, be seem as (xxxii)to be: consider something (省略to be) something [正確答案的出現(xiàn)方式] (xxxiii)help
a)help somebody to do something
b)help (to do) something
c)helpful in doing
(xxxiv)at point; at pole; at equator; aim at doing something
(xxxv)forbid somebody to do something; forbid something
(xxxvi)prohibit somebody from doing something; prohibit something
(xxxvii)compare A to B (把A比作B)
(xxxviii)compare A with B (相同(xxxix)事物比較)
(xl)in that標(biāo)(xli)準(zhǔn)書面英語,(xlii)漢譯為"原因體現(xiàn)在"
(xliii)more ancient標(biāo)(xliv)準(zhǔn)書面英語
V.連接詞連接兩個(gè)部分的對(duì)稱性問題
and在畫線部分中或畫線部分的前面,and是一個(gè)解題點(diǎn)。
(xlv)形式上對(duì)稱:名(xlvi)詞對(duì)名(xlvii)詞;分詞對(duì)分詞(現(xiàn)在分詞不(xlviii)一定要對(duì)現(xiàn)在分詞,(xlix)要檢驗(yàn)動(dòng)作的發(fā)出者和承受者)
(l)強(qiáng)調(diào)含義上的對(duì)稱:duty assignment對(duì)應(yīng)the staffing of people
(li)平行對(duì)稱結(jié)構(gòu):多個(gè)小分句之間要平行對(duì)稱,(lii)在最后一個(gè)分句前補(bǔ)出and難點(diǎn):A)在肯定句時(shí),補(bǔ)and;在否定時(shí),補(bǔ)nor英語否定句的定義:句子出現(xiàn)no, not時(shí)"Never……"是肯定句,表示否定的含義
B)非平行結(jié)構(gòu)的誤導(dǎo)題(如補(bǔ)充材料5:三個(gè)句子不能構(gòu)成平行對(duì)稱結(jié)構(gòu))
(liii)當(dāng)前后兩個(gè)問題對(duì)稱時(shí),
(liv)后半句的be動(dòng)詞可能被省略,
(lv)如to do and do something, to可以省略
如果發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)選項(xiàng)有意省略‘to’或被動(dòng)詞時(shí),則很有可能是正確答案對(duì)稱結(jié)構(gòu)的常考連詞:but……or
either…or…not only…but also…(also有時(shí)省略)
neither…nor…not…but…(優(yōu)選結(jié)構(gòu))
from…to……as well as…
as…as……rather than…(如果前面有不定式的話,后面不定式往往被省略)
