新SAT考试官方OG文法部分之平行结构考点

SAT语法平行结构考点有两种基本形式：

一：A, B, and C, 可以是词的并列，可以是短语的并列，也可以是句子的并列：

Example One:

Employees are happier, healthier, and more productive when they work in an environment with natural light. (三个形容词的并列)

Example Two:Each time Caroline turns on her computers, she has to enter a company code, then her initials, and a password before she can begin working. (三个名词短语的并列)

Example Three:The kids are running, the adolescents are chatting, and the seniors are walking. (三个句子的并列)

二：A and B，可以是词或者短语的并列，也可以是句子的并列：

Example One:

Barbers in Europe during the Middle Ages had the special functions of performing surgery and pulling teeth. (两个动词短语的并列)

Example Two:

Tigers and lions may be identical in size, but the tiger is the fiercer animal and the lion is the stronger one.(两个句子的并列)

不管划线部分有“and”，还是划线部分的前面或者后面有“and”， 请同学们对号入座，通过划分句子成分，快速断句，确定是A，B，and C考点还是A and B考点。
