43、rom （ D） An invitation that came from GMAT（ VERBAL）语法改错模拟试卷 26答案与解析 1 【正确 答案】 E 【试题解析】 由 perceive A1 as A2(A1、 A2均为物 )的用法，就可直接找到答案E。不过，还可以用别的方法来解题。 A、 D中的 the serious threatening的表达不对，因为此处若需名词化，名词形式 threat可直接替换 threatening； C中 being多余；而 B改变了句意，无端地出现了一个同级比较；同时比较前后的比较句不具可比性；比较前的物体是 what(把 what从句中的 wha

44、t还原到宾语位置上 )；比较后是一个过去分词短语： posed by； E中 posed by跳跃修饰 the thereat。 【知识模块】 语法改错 2 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据用法直接选 A。 【知识模块】 语法改错 3 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据 regardas 的用法排除 C、 D、 E。 B代入句中，句意理解不通。 A合适。注意此处第一个 as(划线部分的 )是作为 “regardedas” 结构的一部分。后面的 as high as中的 as是同级比较的结构： airspace指 “领空 ”。此处用extending upward表明了领空是一个动态的 而

45、非静态的概念。这一判断可由未划线部分的 an airplane can fly及 no specific altitude has beenofficially recognized as a boundary暗示出来。 【知识模块】 语法改错 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据习惯用法，可直接得出答案 A。 E中 consider as用法不对。 【知识模块】 语法改错 5 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 在 A、 B、 C中 which均指代 major works of art，把其代入，就会发现 A1和 A2并不存在相似性进行类比。如 A中： A1为 major works，为一

46、物体；而 A2putting lipstick是一动名词短语，强调动作。 C中： A1为 major works， A2为 lipstick；考生不禁会问：艺术品怎么会像口红呢 ?改变了句意；而D、 E中用现在分词 likening表伴随结果，从语法分析，此结构是可以接受的。其中 it指 the technique，也就是首句的主语： the colorization of black-and-white filmsby computers。把此指代代回 D、 E中， D中： A1为 the colorization； A2为a Greek statue，两者同样没有相似处，因为 A1是一过程

47、 彩色化，而 A2为一事物； B、 E进行对比， B中： A1为 major works，而 A2为 a Greek statue，从表面上看似乎是有可比性的；而 E中： A1为 thecolorization of blackandwhile films， A2为 putting lipstick on a Greek statue。如果选 B，并不能看出 “主要的艺术作品 ”和 “被涂有 口红的一座古希腊雕像 ”有何明确的相似处以致可以被用来作为类比的对象 ?而 E选项的出现，使考生恍然大悟。 “使黑白电影彩色化 ”当然是能够被比作为 “给一座古希腊雕像涂口红 ”，因为它们部是 degra

48、des major works of art。 【知识模块】 语法改错 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据用法可直接选出 C。 A中未补出 that of，使得 A1和 A2逻辑上不对应。 【知识模块】 语法改错 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 A、 B中，若现在分词短语作伴随状语结果成立， 那么 then或 and then就为多余的。何况从句意上说，动作 take turns与动作 made是并列的，用现在分词形式从根本上改变了句意。 D、 E结构混乱，句意改变。 【知识模块】 语法改错 8 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据用法直接选 A。 【知识模块】 语法改错 9 【正确

49、答案】 C 【试题解析】 A、 B中用 with短语及非限定性从句的表达不够简洁；同时 B中they、 their无代对象； E中 they同样无指代对象， that不知在从句中作何成分；C、 D用 intended to do过去分词短语修饰 fund，表达简洁有效。但 D中用 after exhausting its oil reserves的表达有误，会让读者误以为 fund是 exhausting的逻辑主语，其实却不是。 C中用 after引导的从句清楚表明了句意。 【知识模块】 语法改错 10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 根据比较中补出动词原则，排除 A、 B、 E(此处，若不补出 were就必然改变句意，请读者自行分析 )； C、 D比较，由于 be in isolation from不如be isolated from简洁，所以选 D。 【知识模块】 语法改错 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 A、 C、 D、 E要么改变句意，要么使句子理解不通， B符合此用法，句意明确。 【知识模块】 语法改错 12 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据用法直接选 C。 【知识模块】 语法改错 13 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据习惯用法可排除 D、 E；由 eitheror 结构，排除
