※ 引述《chiao999 (chiao)》之銘言： : 695 : By 1940, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran held seventeen official national and international speed records, earned at a time when aviation was still so new that many of the planes she flew were of dangerously experimental design. : Earned 是修飾record 不是應該要連在一起沒逗點嗎？ : 1. earned 前面沒有逗點的話正確嗎？ : 2. 改成以下分詞子句正確嗎？ : By 1940 aviation was still so new, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran, earning seventeen official national and international speed records at a time, flew many of the planes were of dangerously experimental design. 1. 可以，被動分詞是可以修飾逗號前面的第一個名詞 2. 我會先說，除非是明顯的文法錯誤自己改正(像是主動詞一致或時態) 否則自己改句子來討論正確與否是沒意義的一來 GMAT SC 的答案有時不一定是在討論正確性，而是比較上來說哪個句意較佳 (且有時是 GMAC 說了算) 所以自己改句子來討論其實意義不大不過回歸原 po 所寫，我們看以下正確句子: By 1940, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran held seventeen official national and international speed records, earned at a time when aviation was still so new that many of the planes she flew were of dangerously experimental design. 句意為: 1940 年， JC 有了 17 項正式的國際飛行紀錄，這些紀錄是在飛行觀念還在初始階段，許多他飛行的飛機還是危險的實驗機取得的紀錄 (中文翻譯不夠好請見諒) 原 po 句子: By 1940 aviation was still so new, the pilot Jacqueline Cochran, earning seventeen official national and international speed records at a time, flew many of the planes were of dangerously experimental design 文法基本上應該有誤: 1. 兩個句子沒連接詞 2. flew 和 were 一句話有兩個動詞句意為: 1940 年，飛行觀念還在初始階段，JC，取得了17項正式的國際飛行紀錄，使用了許多很危險的實驗機做飛行這樣的句意會和本來想表達的正確句意有不小的差距 1. 原本正確答案使用 so that 連接了兩個觀念 aviation was so new --> planes were of dangerously...... 而原 po 的句子將這兩個句子隔離太遠，沒有連接 2. 請注意核心句意盡可能 (但違反並不見得是錯誤) 用主要動詞 (main verb) 表達正確答案將取得正式紀錄放入核心句 (held 17 records) 而這句也的確是這句話的核心觀念原 po 的句子將 "flew many planes" or "planes were of dangerously" 這兩個其中一個當核心句 (因為兩個動詞我看不出哪一個是原 po 要表達的) 但不管是哪一個相信都不是原句的核心句意當然，(1) 取得 17 項飛行紀錄，(2) 是用還是危險的實驗機達成這兩個觀念應該是相輔相成，強調這紀錄的可貴但我想比較上來說，飛行紀錄還是核心句意最後，我還是建議專心把 SC 的五個答案完整討論出，會比自己想其他可能性來的有效率許多 Donz GMAT: Ethan -- Donz GMAT 實力班: http://www.donzgmat.com/course-5weeks Donz GMAT FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DonzGMAT Donz 全科線上機經課: http://ndxica.pixnet.net/blog/post/41525434 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 49.217.177.37 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/GMAT/M.1489250525.A.69F.html ※ 編輯: ndxica (49.217.177.37), 03/12/2017 09:29:34
