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象，但“a critique……”和“a vision……”用“as well as”平行在一起，沒(méi)有任何錯誤，正確地作同位語(yǔ)修飾了“‘Essay on Heat and Light’”。
【大意】 十九世紀化學(xué)家Humphry Davy在《Essay on Heat and Light》中敘述了他早期實(shí)驗的結果，這篇文章是對Robert Boyle之后所有化學(xué)的批評以及對Davy希望發(fā)現的新化學(xué)的憧憬。
(B)a critique of all chemistry following Robert Boyle and also his envisioning of a
【錯誤】 平行結構：本選項將“a critique”和“his envisioning of”平行在一起，但如(A)所示，“envision”存在相應的專(zhuān)有名詞“vision”，因此并不需要使用“envisioning of”這種表達方式。
(C)a critique of all chemistry after Robert Boyle and envisioning as well
【錯誤】 平行結構： “a critique of”是一個(gè)專(zhuān)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，兩者邏輯概念不對等，不應平行。
(D)critiquing all chemistry from Robert Boyle forward and also a vision of
【錯誤1】 修飾成分：“，critiquing”放在主謂結構“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)。
【錯誤2】 平行結構：類(lèi)似地“critiquing”和“a vision of”無(wú)法平行。
【錯誤3】 簡(jiǎn)潔明了：“and”和“also”之間存在語(yǔ)義重復。
(E)critiquing all the chemistry done since Robert Boyle as well as his own envisioning of
【錯誤1】 修飾成分：見(jiàn)(D)中【錯誤1】。
【錯誤2】 平行結構：見(jiàn)(B)。
【最優(yōu)解題思路推薦】
只有(A)選項“and”兩端的結構平行且語(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 ”引導的從句作同位語(yǔ)正確地修飾了“confidence”，敘述了“信息”的具體內容，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】 根據一些分析師的說(shuō)法，股票市場(chǎng)的利得反映了正在增長(cháng)的信心：經(jīng)濟將避免早些時(shí)候人們擔憂(yōu)的衰退并達到一個(gè)由商業(yè)活動(dòng)逐漸增加跟隨著(zhù)的“軟著(zhù)陸”。
(B)in the economy to avoid the recession, what many feared earlier in the year, rather to come
【錯誤1】 平行結構：有日常邏輯可知，“to avoid the recession”和“to come”本意上應是平行的，但兩個(gè)平行的對象不能僅僅用“rather”一個(gè)詞連接。
【錯誤2】 固定搭配：不存在“confidence in X to do sth.”表達“對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
【錯誤】 平行結構：有日常邏輯可知，“to avoid the recession”和“to come”本意上應是平行的，但兩個(gè)平行的對象不能僅僅用“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”，因為“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”。
【錯誤2】 固定搭配：見(jiàn)(B)中【錯誤2】。
(E)that the economy will avoid the recession that was feared earlier this year by many, with it instead coming
【錯誤1】 動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)：類(lèi)似地，見(jiàn)(D)中【錯誤1】。
【錯誤2】 簡(jiǎn)潔明了：在GMAT考察的標準書(shū)面英語(yǔ)中，主動(dòng)句簡(jiǎn)潔性?xún)?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)本應平行的“to do”結構沒(méi)有“and”連接，排除，不存在“confidence in X to do sth.”表達“對X做某事有信心”的用法，排除(B)、(D)。
(A)比(B)相對簡(jiǎn)潔，因此選擇(A)。
