GMAT语法题,又称句子改错题(sentence correction),是整个GMAT考试中对考生英语语法能力考查要求最高的题型,也往往是中国学生最为头疼的一类题目。没有扎实的语法基础和一定的逻辑分析能力,想要做好语法题难度极高。怎样做好GMAT语法题?下面小编就通过一些经典真题的实例解析,为大家全面讲解GMAT语法题的解题思路和方法技巧。
实例题目:
Bengal-born writer, philosopher, and educator Rabindranath Tagore had the greatest admiration for Mohandas K. Gandhi the person and also as a politician, but Tagore had been skeptical of Gandhi’s form of nationalism and his conservative opinions about India’s cultural traditions.
(A) for Mohandas K. Gandhi the person and also as a politician, but Tagore had been
(B) for Mohandas K. Gandhi as a person and as a politician, but Tagore was also
(C) for Mohandas K. Gandhi not only as a person and as a politician, but Tagore was also
(D) of Mohandas K. Gandhi as a person and as also a politician, but Tagore was
(E) of Mohandas K. Gandhi not only as a person and as a politician, but Tagore had also been
选项分析:
(A)for Mohandas K. Gandhi the person and also as a politician, but Tagore had been
【错误1】 平行结构:“the person and also as a politician”中“and”两边语法功能不一致(后边有“as”前边没有)。
【错误2】 动词时态:“had been skeptical”表示Tagore在“崇拜Mohandas K. Gandhi”之前一直怀疑,但实际上“怀疑”和“崇拜”是同时的,因此过去完成时被误用。
(B)for Mohandas K. Gandhi as a person and as a politician, but Tagore was also
【正确】 “as a person and as a politician”是正确的平行结构,“Tagore was also”正确地使用了过去完成时。
【错误】 Bengal出生的作家、哲学家和教育家Rabindranath Tagore崇拜作为人且作为政治家的Mohandas K. Gandhi,但Tagore也对Gandhi式的民族主义和他对印度文化的保守观点持怀疑态度。
(C)for Mohandas K. Gandhi not only as a person and as a politician, but Tagore was also
【错误】 平行结构:“not only”本应和“but (also)”连用,平行结构错误。
(D)of Mohandas K. Gandhi as a person and as also a politician, but Tagore was
【错误1】 固定搭配:“admiration”接“of”不表示对人的崇拜。
【错误2】 简洁明了:“and”和“also”语义重复。
(E)of Mohandas K. Gandhi not only as a person and as a politician, but Tagore had also been
【错误1】 固定搭配:见(D)中【错误1】。
【错误2】 平行结构:见(C)。
【错误3】 动词时态:见(A)中【错误2】。
解题思路:
(A)、(C)、(E)均有平行结构错误,立即排除。
(D)中有“and”和“also”同时用这种不简洁的结构,逊于(B)。
