GMAT语法课堂练习分享 GMAT考试

　　代词是GMAT语法中非常重要的一个考点，划线中的代词在大多数情况下都有问题，因此见到代词划线，建议首先确定该代词有无明确的指代对象，且其单复数形式是否与其指代对象保持一致。
　　注意：不能以代词前有多个单数名词或复数名词，如单数单词前有多个单数名词或复数代词前有多个复数名词，来判定代词指代混乱。这个要根据句子逻辑意思来确定，若是逻辑意思合理且没有歧义，单数代词前就是有一堆单数名词句子也不会存在代词指代不明确的情况。
　　例1. Nowhere in Prakta is the influence of modernEuropean architecture more apparent than their government buildings. (A) more apparent than their (B) so apparent as their (C) more apparent than in its (D) so apparent than in their (E) as apparent as it is in its
　　例1. 解析：答案选C
　　Nowhere inPrakta is the influence of modern European architecture more apparent than their government buildings. (A) more apparent than their(B) so apparent as their (C) more apparent than in its (D) so apparent than in their (E) as apparent as it is in its
　　考点：
　　1. 代词必须要有明确的指代对象，且单复数形式要与其指代对象保持一致。
　　2. more…than/ as…as区别。
　　选项分析：
　　A. 代词their没有指代对象，their应指代复数名词，但是句子中根本就没有复数名词。
　　B.their没有指代对象；将比较级more…than换成了同级比较so…as，改变了原文的合理意思。
　　C.correct；its指代Prakta；than后面的比较从句省略了与主语相同的主谓结构，只保留了介词短语。
　　D. 代词their指代不清；so…than结构搭配不符合习惯，so通常不能与than搭配。
　　E. 将比较级more…than换成了同级比较as…as，改变了原文的合理意思。
　　选项排除：
　　1. 见到代词找指代，指代通常不合理。划线中出现代词their，首先确定其有无明确的指代对象，代词their前没有复数名词，所有their无明确的指代对象，排除ABD。
　　2. 比较选项CE，发现E将比较级more…than换成了同级比较as…as，改变了原文的合理意思，排除E。
　　注：Nowhere…is more… than…意思是：没有什么地方比…更…，即表示“……的”。
　　正确句子：
　　Nowhere inPrakta/ is the influence of modern European architecture/ more apparent thanin its government buildings.

　　翻译：
　　在帕克塔，没有什么地方的房子比大楼所受现代欧洲建筑风格的影响更大。
　　例2.

　　例2. 解析：答案选B
　　In England the well-dressed gentleman of the eighteenthcentury protected theirclothing while having theirwig powdered by poking their head through a device that resembled thestocks.(A) gentleman of theeighteenth century protected theirclothing while having theirwig powdered by poking theirhead(B) gentleman of the eighteenth century protected his clothing while having hiswig powdered by poking his head(C) gentleman of theeighteenth century protected theirclothing while having theirwigs powdered by poking theirheads(D) gentlemen of theeighteenth century protected hisclothing while having hiswig powdered by poking hishead(E) gentlemen of theeighteenth century protected their clothing while having his wig powdered by poking his head
　　考点：
　　1. 代词必须要有明确的指代对象，且单复数形式要一致。
　　选项分析：
　　A. their无指代对象，their只能指代复数名词，单数名词gentleman与复数代词their在数方面不一致。
　　B.correct。
　　C. 同A，单数名词fentleman与复数代词their在数方面不一致。
　　D. 单数代词his与其指代对象复数名词gentlemen在数方面不一致，造成his无指代对象。
　　E. 同D，单数代词his无指代对象。
　　选项排除：
　　1. 见到代词找指代，指代通常不合理。划线中有代词their出现，立马找出指代对象来，看指代是否正确，句子中的代词必须要有明确的指代对象且单复数形式要一致，将此错误依次带入各选项，可排除ACDE。
　　正确句子：
　　In England the well-dressed gentleman/of the eighteenth century/ protected his clothing/ while having his wigpowdered/ by poking his head/ through a device/ that resembled the stocks.
　　翻译：
　　18世纪英格兰穿着得体的绅士在给他的假发擦粉时，头上会戴上一个类似于足枷的宽硬领巾来保护他的衣服。
