(A) Unlike using spices for cooking, in medicinal usage they are taken
(B) Unlike spices that are used in cooking, in using spices for medicine, they are taken
(C) Unlike cooking with spices, taking spices for medicinal use is done
(D) In cooking, small quantities of spices are used, whereas in medicinal usage spices are taken
(E) In cooking, the usage of spices is in small quantities, whereas in medicinal usage they are taken
如果不考虑和后半句对称,像答案A和C这样,Unlike后面接动名词是否可以?
谢谢!
按ets的逻辑,不管比较的形式如何(先不管是否为代名词),其比较的内容应该是对称的。
而选项A , B,C似乎都不够成前后比较对象的对称和对等。
A和B的选项似乎都是自己和自己对比?
而C,taking spices for medicinal use is done 和 cooking with spices, 无论从哪个角度来说都有拗口,
表达不简洁的问题。犯了ets的表达简洁,唯一,有效的最高原则。
本人选答案为D, 请各位指正。
很久没有分析了,这题我也觉得是选D。
首先认为是,like后加动名词是可以的。
like在GMAT中只能做比较用。一般只有like A, B do的机构,和B,like A, do 的结构.A和B要严格对等,不只是语法上的对等,逻辑意思上也要严格对等。A,B一般来说正如LS所说都是不相同的。
A:首先就不满足like A, B do的结构。
B:they的指代有一定问题。感觉上指代第一个spices更好,从而逻辑意思不同。
C:虽然都是动名词,但是意义不一样。cooking这里和taking不能比较的。如果是cooking with spices
和making medicine with spices是可以比较的.但是making medicine with spices作主语的话后半句意
思就不对了。
E:redundant.
