referred answer: b

2
just as... so
something like: in order to restore the population of salmon (a type of fish) in all seven rivers in some place, the government decided to do something to the rivers to do something  in this particular river. answers have all rivers, each river, etc. i chose each river .

3
語法第一題就是gwd 上爭論不休的-----by black americans including ----of ....., ---- of-----

我按照jj上選了b,估計錯了,因為第二道馬上劃線部分變短了.

4
just as.....so.... (我碰到的沒有別的干擾,記住這個就行)。

5
within the atmosphere, deep clouds containing …. completely cover the planet and protect from sun reaching ….

the sentence correction part is more difficult than i thought. good luck to all cders

6
sc 中也有不少gwd的題。

7
gwd3-4、
gwd 3-21
gwd3-27
gwd6-2

8
v部分sc和rc記不太清楚了,見到3道gwd的題

9
sc的就沒有什麼好說,我做題不是全部看的,先找出結構,然後找錯誤,所以根本記不住,總之沒有遇到一題以前做過的,包括gwd和天山。不過感覺不難,劃線都不算長,最多也是4行中的3/4。

有考到less...than (很容易的)。有一題好象是以前某樣的東西had怎樣怎樣,現在怎樣怎樣,但......,還是不說了,反正大家也看不懂。

最後一題不是很夠時間,是說bush的一個美國航空計畫,考平行結構,可惜我時間不是很夠,在a和c中比較,結果在最後一秒選了c,然後confirm。

10
sc真的沒啥印象,每一題都巨長,像是aa的題目一樣,大家要小心,
只記得有一題考that的平衡→that…,that…and that…,
還有考插入句,就是→主語,插入句,謂語…,可是這題搞的地方就是主語也很長,有可能誤導人,
反正大家小心就是了,全劃線的反而不難,容易抓破點,
到是那種畫一句或二句的,大家千萬要小心,
11
第一題考such...as
還有一題與og中加州地震幾乎一模一樣,但答案全變了,全部五個答案都用it指代發生在東和西的兩個比較的地震對象,與原解釋不一致,此題還是考的平行結構

12
the greatest road system built in the americas prior to the arrival of christopher columbus was the incan highway, which, over 2,500 miles long and extending from northern ecuador through peru to southern chile.
a  columbus was the incan highway, which, over 2,500 miles long and extending
b  columbus was the incan highway, over 2,500 miles in length, and extended
c  columbus, the incan highway, which was over 2,500 miles in length and extended
d  columbus, the incan highway, being over 2,500 miles in length, was extended
e  columbus, the incan highway was over 2,500 miles long, extending
just as...so

13
sc:gwd開始,gwd結束。
第一題:gwd-9-q1: a mixture of poems and short fiction, jean toomer’s cane has been called one of the three best novels ever written by black americans—the others being richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man. a. black americans—the others being richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man b. black americans—including native son by richard wright and invisible man by ralph ellison c. a black american—including richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man d. a black american—the others being richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man e. a black american—the others being richard wright’s native son and ralph ellison’s invisible man 這題我選的是e

最後一題:gwd-6-q41: the greatest road system built in the americas prior to the arrival of christopher columbus was the incan highway, which, over 2,500 miles long and extending from northern ecuador through peru to southern chile. a. columbus was the incan highway, which, over 2,500 miles long and extending b. columbus was the incan highway, over 2,500 miles in length, and extended c. columbus, the incan highway, which was over 2,500 miles in length and extended d. columbus, the incan highway, being over 2,500 miles in length, was extended e. columbus, the incan highway was over 2,500 miles long, extending 巧了,這兩道題在各自的單元里也是1和41
其他的主語平行結構。

14
有jj提到的著名的each river 問題。

15
沒碰到jj(也許是我jj做的不多,也沒時間做gwd),其他的內容也沒記住,只記得有考到“比較”用法,記得要前後對應――“…比較級…than…”。

16
1、gwd-9-q1: 
a mixture of poems and short fiction, jean toomer’s cane has been called one of the three best novels ever written by black americans—the others being richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man.

a)black americans—the others being richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man
b)black americans—including native son by richard wright and invisible man by ralph ellison
c)a black american—including richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man
d)a black american—the others being richard wright, author of native son, and ralph ellison, author of invisible man
e)a black american—the others being richard wright’s native son and ralph ellison’s invisible man
網上曾經爭論的很激烈,我選的e

17(willsum ,jan28)
gwd-9-q1:(同上面17--編者)這題cd有爭議,我選了b;但有爭議說選e;考慮的我最後的可憐分數,是不是可以斷定選e,請nn確認。
gwd-1-q8: 我選a
the 32 species that make up the dolphin family are closely related to whales and in fact include the animal known as the killer whale, which can grow to be 30 feet long and is famous for its aggressive hunting pods.

a)include the animal known as the killer whale, which can grow to be 30 feet long and is
b)include the animal known as the killer whale, growing as big as 30 feet long and
c)include the animal known as the killer whale, growing up to 30 feet long and being
d)include the animal known as the killer whale, which can grow as big as 30 feet long and is
e)include the animal known as the killer whale, which can grow to be 30 feet long and it is


spur somebody to do

whether + 過去分詞,

分詞短語,主句:基本考主句的主語是分詞短語的邏輯主語

有一題考到as,是一個原因狀語從句;其他選項有because of + 一串複雜的名詞,還帶有定語從句或分詞短語;所以我直接選了as的那個。

sc總體似乎不難,主要是分詞結構,主謂搭配,並列結構等

18
1)說一個sales增長比率是兩外一個比率得三倍
.......sales is three times the xx(某個冬冬得) rate
選項有three times that of , at three times 等等,我選了at three times

2)考了not only,but also結構,不過沒有一個是完全"正規"得結構.最對稱得就是not only, but also .......as well,和一個not only, but.....as well.

題目是說:電腦工程師是個很好得工作, not only in demand at xx(是一個行業得比喻意,所以用了at,沒有用in) but in xx(另外一個行業,沒有用比喻意,所以介詞用了in)...as well

我就選了這個選項,因為實在是沒有一個是"傳統og"得not only, but also結構並且並列成分是平行得. 我也覺得不太對,但是實在覺得別的不對l

19
1) spur women to seek work(我選這個)
spur women seeking to work
2) gwd:by black americans——including a book by aa and a book by bb
3) african americans accounted for 1 percent of population in 1990, more than double than
their share earlier in 1980s
their share of
what they had
what it was
4) the latter half of the year(我選這個)
the last half of the year
