第一章：句子结构(一划句子结构)一、名词性从句：一）主语从句：it may (well) be that + 主从; it be +adj./ed/n. + that + 主从; it seem/happen/appear + that + 主从二） 宾语从句：动词型：that 不能省略/ 介词型：介词后只能接疑问词引导的宾语从句(除in that, except that, but that)三）表语从句：主语+be+that 从句/疑问词型从句二、特殊结构：一）强调：it is…that …; it is not until…that…;many n…..,if not most, do sth; n. is as…as…, if not more so.二）倒装：三）as 结构：Prep.: accept/ classify/ define/ describe/ know/ name/ refer to/ regard/ speak of/ state/ think/ think of/ view as n. Conj.: (just) as …, 主句; (just) as …, so 主句; (just) as …, so too 主句(部分倒装);Pron.: 代替单主句 (e.g. indirect socialization also occurs, as when television shows reinforce stereotyped images)四）同位结构：同位语，主语…（一定要一致）解释：n.,n.; a n., n.; n., a n.; the n., n.;内容具体化：抽象n.(theory/ evidence/ belief/ principle/hypothesis) + that 从句 (that 不能省略);of 表示所属关系，强调部分概念。

概括：a n. (program/ information/ effort/ practice) that修饰：n., n. that 从句代词：n., one/ones + that 从句五）独立主格：(with/each) + n./ ed/ ing/ adj.phrase/ prep.phrase （注意each 后接单数its 非their ）六）省略结构：V .+that两个句子并列，第一个含有be 作为助动词或become ，第二个句子中的be 或become 必须省略。

GMAT语法小蓝精解----part II部分3.and 题型：要求形式对称，所以making and causing 如果选A则，ignition and flames 并列，具体不能对抽象，所以错，而B flames spreads.为句子，则和前面的主句并列，错。

Cause sth to do 为正确答案。

在GMAT考试中，与to do 搭配有很多，如迫使，倾向和序数词修饰某个名词其后要求使用不定式，如force sb to do/ be inclined to do/ attempt to do. The first woman to fly solo4.核心主干为caterpillar strikes when hairs are disturbed holds the victim.此时三个谓语少一个连词，所以应在holds前加个and. 正确答案为E5．修饰语就近修饰原则，则定语从句后面带的独立主格就近修饰从句，所以their 指代是murals. 而其他选项。

Their symmetries are embellished 是一句话，只能和前面的主句MCC has traveled to dwellings 并列，此时their只能指代dwellings根据句子含义，错。

所以答案为A。

6．主干为inflation slowed but were错，因为but为并列连词，所以were主语为inflation 单数，所以答案为B 。

美国人出题思维很直接，哪错就改哪里。

因为我们做的题目为sentence correction7.主干为reasons are 如果其后为名词，则三个名词并列，如果为从句则使用相同连词，且三个从句都必须有连接词。

Reasons are N1, N2, N3; reasons are that SVO , that SVO and that SVO8.比较题型：Like A, B +V+O 此时只要求A和B为同类概念。

GMAT语法：Like用法总结及题目训练(1)一．Like 用法总结原则一：like 比较的是名词和名词。

要找准比较对象。

原则二：Just like 是wordy, like就可以了。

Like**,**also 也是redundant。

原则三：要把like的句子改写成as（连词）引导的从句的话，要补上从句的谓语动词（或助动词），并且该动词和主句的动词应该没有逻辑上的矛盾。

1. as作连词，like作介词时，才可表示”象...一样”2. like 和 as 的优缺点 like优点是，直接接名词，简洁，比as灵活，象得没as那么象。

但有时太灵活以至导致歧义(e.g.,og060.A)。

相比之下as的优点是准确，缺点是过于死板，以致于有时导致逻辑上不通。

（e.g.,og119.C)3. like 常用于比较名词，作独立成分，大部分时候出现在句首。

(e.g.,og091)但like+n.也可作表语 (looks like,reads like (e.g.,大全568))，或普通状语（说普通是区分独立成分）(v.+like+n.,e.g., og119)。

平时我们说“wo rk like a dog”,即属此类。

4.当like+n.作状语时，象所有的介词短语作状语一样，要考虑它在句中的位置和用来修饰什么，不可导致歧义。

5. 当like+n.作状语时，感觉GMAT接受v.+like+n.，很少用v.+n.+like+n.,除非是固定用法（如：treat...like... （大全310））。

例如下面的句子，GMAT会认为confusing： Tom drives his car like a tank. （drive like a tank, orcar like a tank?）6. like, as, 和 as if。

当用as和like都感觉不舒服时，用as if＋虚拟语气，尤其用于和假设的事物或事实比较。

Furthermore, if wages are not allowed to rise, the value of the country's currency will appreciate, which (from the developed countries' point of view) is the equivalent of increased wages in the developing country. And although in the pasta few countries have deliberately kept their currencies undervalued, that is nowmuch harder to do in a world where capital moves more freely.看清是过去（资本受限）还是现在（资本自由流通）的情况！A study of food resources in the North Pacific between 1989 and 1996revealed that creatures of the seabed were suffering from dwindling food supplies, possibly resulting from increasing sea surface temperatures during the sameperiod.∙A that creatures of the seabed were suffering from dwindling food supplies, possibly resulting from increasing 分析A选项∙B that creatures of the seabed were suffering because food supplies were dwindling, possibly as a result of an increase in 分析B选项∙C that creatures of the seabed were suffering because of food supplies, which were dwindling possibly as a result of increasing 分析C选项∙D creatures of the seabed that were suffering from food supplies that were dwindling, possibly resulting from an increase in 分析D选项∙E creatures of the seabed that were suffering because food supplies were dwindling, which possibly resulted from increasing 分析E选项考点: 逻辑表达(Logical Predication) 简洁有效(Rhetorical Construction)1) 动词的现在分词作形容词,一般含有正在进行的意思2) which/it 都不能指代整个句子(A) sb. suffer from B,表示sb.遭受了B, B表示的是遭受的结果,因此使用dwindling不好,现在分词一般表示过程, 应该使用名词或过去分词表示结果; 同样increasing也不好, result from后面接事实,表示原因, 应该用increased或者an increase来代替increasing(B) 正确。
