Degler does more than merely summarizing existing research; he constructs a coherent picutre of two centuries of studies dealing with the changing roles of women.
答案是:
(E) Degler does more than merely summarize
为何:
(A)        Degler does more than merely summarizing
不行?刘振民着的解释为:比较前后的summarize不对称
还是不了解!!do后不是放Ving吗?

In his eagerness to find a city worthy of Priam, the German archaeologist Schliemann cut through Troy and uncovered a civilization a thousand years older as was the city Homer’s heroes knew.
ANS :
(B)        more ancient than the city known to Homer’s heroes
我选的为
(c) older than was the city known to Homer’s heroes
解释的是在c中补出was, 出现句子的结构是不需要的, why?

1.这道题我也胡涂了
感觉上more应该是名词，如果比较双方要对称的话，应该用动名词
偶乱说的：P，哪位知道的指点一下啦

2.我觉得这儿不是说出现句子结构不对，省略was不会影响句子意思的表达，又比较简洁
另外more ancient的表达要比older好，我记得GMAT中有一题开头是The ancient n. ....

1. "does" here stands for emphasize ,"YU QI - modal"
2. Comparing : civilization , a non, no sentence need.

cook:你是说does在这儿只是表强调语气？不理解

cook

Yes, you got it.
for example: I do know it is my fault.

princess

sorry,我不能同意呃

do表强调语气的话都是紧跟在谓语动词的前面，就像你觉得例子
我觉得这句话中的do还是个实义动词

cook

More for you reference: I do want to be sure! Do be still!

princess

可是可是，你举的例子中do都是和实义动词（want,be)相连的啊

I do believe that you are wrong. hehe

译为:不尽尽是概括了现存的研究成果，还….(类似表达如:A historical novel may do more than mirror history; it may even influence future events.在toefl出现过)而do more than…要记为一习惯的表达方式吗?? OR USED AS AN EMPHASIS?
SORRY I REALLY DON'T GET IT. : (

princess

既然这样的话，我觉得可能就是一个对称的问题，mirror和do相对应
把它记为习惯表达法吧
