2015年GMAT句子改錯(cuò)模擬題及解析
    41. In 1850, Lucretia Mott published her Discourse on Women, arguing in a treatise for women to have equal political and legal rights and for changes in the married women’s property laws.
    (A) arguing in a treatise for women to have equal political and legal rights
    (B) arguing in a treatise for equal political and legal rights for women
    (C) a treatise that advocates women’s equal political and legal rights
    (D) a treatise advocating women’s equal political and legal rights
    (E) a treatise that argued for equal political and legal rights for women
    答案解析如下:
    (A)arguing in a treatise for women to have equal political and legal rights
    【錯(cuò)誤】 修飾成分:非謂語動(dòng)詞“arguing”在本選項(xiàng)中作狀語(動(dòng)詞的修飾語),其邏輯主語為“Lucretia Mott”,與所修飾動(dòng)詞“published”的主語相同,這意味著“arguing”是動(dòng)詞“published”的伴隨狀語,根據(jù)與法要求,“doing”形式的伴隨狀語與所修飾動(dòng)詞同時(shí)發(fā)生且同(邏輯)主語,所以根據(jù)語法要求,“Lucretia Mott”一邊“發(fā)表論文”,一邊伴隨著在“爭論”,這種修飾關(guān)系并不合理。
    (B)arguing in a treatise for equal political and legal rights for women
    【錯(cuò)誤】 修飾成分:見(A)。
    (C)a treatise that advocates women's equal political and legal rights
    【錯(cuò)誤】 平行結(jié)構(gòu):劃線部分之后連接“and for……”結(jié)構(gòu),僅能與(E)中的 “argued for”形成語法、語義均平行的“argued for……and for……”結(jié)構(gòu)。
    (D)a treatise advocating women's equal political and legal rights
    【錯(cuò)誤】 平行結(jié)構(gòu):類似地,見(C)。
    (E)a treatise that argued for equal political and legal rights for women
    【正確】 “that argued for……”是“a treatise”的定語從句,而“a treatise”是“Discourse on Women”的同位語,修飾關(guān)系明確。
    【大意】 1850年Lucretia Mott發(fā)表了《女性的討論》,一篇為女性平等政治、法律權(quán)利和修改女性婚姻產(chǎn)權(quán)法而爭論的論文。
    【解題思路推薦】
    “Discourse on Women”意為“《女性的討論》”,這恰恰是一篇“treatise”(“論文”),因此,(C)、(D)、(E)的修飾關(guān)系明顯優(yōu)于(A)和(B)而(E)和劃線句子之后的部分形成了“argued for……and for……”的平行結(jié)構(gòu),因此選擇(E)。
