GMAT考试中语法改错SC题型让考生比较头疼的一点在于考试本身覆盖的语法点太多,大家别考时间不够就很有可能出现遗漏或者来不及准备的情况。有鉴于此小编建议大家从高频热门语法点开始优先准备起来。下面小编就来为大家讲解代词指代的具体用法。
GMAT语法大百科语法点:代词指代的用法说明
代词指代最大的歧义或者最值得讨论的地方是,
代词指代到底是按逻辑意思指代还是就近指代;
有的表面上看是就近指代,但根本还是按逻辑意思来指代。
代词正确使用原则
(1) 代词一定有它要指代的先行词,找不到先行词的说明代词用法错误
(2) 代词与先行词的数量上必须一致,例如:前面为boys 后面用they而非he
(3) 代词指代必须符合逻辑,例如:The term “computer killer” may sound exaggerated, but it indeed paralyzed many computers.
此处it 指代term,term使得电脑瘫痪,显然逻辑意思不正确。
(4) 代词指代不能同时指代两个不同意义的词语,否则为指代歧义
(5) 做主语的代词,优先指代主语
例如:Because it was robbed last month, the door to the house is locked.
此处it 在从句中做主语,此处它优先指代the door,把the door带入从句后,发现逻辑出现错误,因此指代错误,这个句子错误。
GMAT高频词汇代词指代用法实例讲解
In an effort to reduce their inventories, Italian vintners have cut prices; their wines have been priced to sell, and they are.
(A) have been priced to sell, and they are
(B) are priced to sell, and they have
(C) are priced to sell, and they do
(D) are being priced to sell, and have
(E) had been priced to sell, and they have
选项分析:
首先,用一般现在时没有什么争议
其中their wines are priced to sell, and they do.“they” 按逻辑意思指代wines.
虽然满足就近指代, 但根本还是按逻辑意思来指代。
注意:这里同一句中的their, they 并没有指代同一名词.
their指代前面的Vintners, 而they 指代wines.
所以最后答案是C
