GMAT考試中比較結(jié)構(gòu)相對來說是比較難排除錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)的一個(gè)部分,其考察核心在于“比較對象”一定要Be clear and Make sense,下面我們來具體解析。
對于比較結(jié)構(gòu)的考察核心在于“比較對象”一定要Be clear and Make sense,不明白?沒關(guān)系,下文是詳細(xì)介紹。
比較一直是SC部分?嫉囊粋(gè)點(diǎn),不像GMAT考試的平行結(jié)構(gòu)能夠很容易的看出來是否對仗工整,比較結(jié)構(gòu)相對來說是比較難排除錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)的一個(gè)部分,因?yàn)樵谖覀兤匠5谋磉_(dá)中經(jīng)常使用的比較結(jié)構(gòu)往往到了GMAT中不再適用,簡而言之,GMAT考試對于比較結(jié)構(gòu)的考察核心在于“比較對象”一定要Be clear and Make sense,下面我們先拿 “COMPARAED TO/WITH”來解(開)釋(刀)!
USAGE OF “COMPARAED TO/WITH” with statistics/quantities
*There is NO functional difference between COMPARAED TO and COMPARAED WITH
首先compared to和compared with是沒有區(qū)別的,至少不能作為一個(gè)排除的點(diǎn),然后我們來看下具體的用法。
GMAT考試USAGE:
*If you present statistics with “compared to/with”, then you DO NOT INCLUDE ANY OTHER WORDS OF COMPARISON. (當(dāng)我們在使用“compared to/with”時(shí),不能再加其他的比較結(jié)構(gòu),否則就重復(fù)了。
GMAT考試In other words:
“twice as much…compared to” redundant X (should just be “twice as much…AS”)
“more/less…compared to” redundant X (should just be “more/less THAN”)
我們來看下GMAT考試中正確的用法:Example of correct usage
“28 percent of American husbands were married to wives with more years of schooling, compared to 6 percent in 1971.”
i.e.. you just PRESENT THE NUMBERS – no additional words re: more, less, N times. etc.
除了不能和其他比較結(jié)構(gòu)一起用之外,GMAT考試中比較的過程還要注意的是“比較對象對等”,我們來看一道真題,小編為每個(gè)選項(xiàng)都寫上了split的關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)和解析。這道題非常典型,讓我們來看下怎么算“比較對象對等”!
In the United States, while the number of foreign-born residents and their children is higher than ever, the percentage of the population they represent in not; in 1910 this group made up 35 percent of the population when compared to 20 percent in 2000.
(A)population when compared to 20 percent in 2000
(B)population as compared to 2000, when it was 20 percent
(C)population, comparing it with 20 percent in 2000
(D)population, unlike 2000, with 20 percent
(E)population, compared with 20 percent in 2000
When you use “compare to/with”, you should make sure that you actually compare THE QUANTITIES THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE COMPARED.
(in this problem, those quantities are 35% and 20%)
(A)when (this group) compared to 20 percent, wrong! And literally this means that this statistic is only true WHEN IT IS BEDING COMPARED to the other one.
(B)You are not supposed to compare the years, also “AS compared to” is undesirable.
(C)This group compare it with 20 percent, wrong!
(D)This group unlike 2000, make on sense. With 20 percent is not idiomatic & doesn’t make sense.
(E)Correct!
再提供GMAT考試一題給大家練手:
Providing initial evidence that airports are a larger source of pollution than they were once believed to be, environmentalists in Chicago report that the total amount of pollutant emitted annually by vehicles at O’Hare International Airport is twice as much as that which is being emitted annually by all motor vehicles in the Chicago metropolitan area.
A. as much as that which is being emitted annually by all
B. as much annually as is emitted by the
C. as much compared to what is annually emitted by all
D. that emitted annually by all
E. that emitted annually compared to the
The official answer is D.
