考点:
固定搭配(Idiom) 有效用词(Diction)
1. Help的用法:Help sb. (to) do; Help (to) do; Be helpful in (特别注意)
2. 列举用such … as A, B, … and C结构,不可以用like代替。like在GMAT中通常做介词表示“像…一样”,要求前后严格对称,但不可表示列举。
3. such as的两种形式:A such as B, such A as B
such as的用法:
such as + 具体名词(n1 and n2或doing n1 and doing n2;)表示举例
such as + noun/ doing/ what从句/介词短语
错误表达:
such as + there/they/these 错 ,必须是具体的东西,不能加代词
such as + to do 错 such as + 句子 错 such as + when错。
X1, X2, X3 such as these 错,such as要放在列举之前。
4. Along with短语引导的是伴随状语,不可以表示平行关系也不可以做连词使用
5. 在…方面要用in … area(s).
选项分析:
A. On areas 搭配错误;like无法表示列举,应当换成such as;along with不能代替and表示并列
B. Correct; such as的列举中,attitudes与relative merits的并列
C. Help to do不如help do简洁有效,但不能称其为绝对性错误;about areas 搭配错误;like无法表示列举,应当换成such as;also about错误,also不可以作为副词连接词(副词连接词)使用
D. Help the doing搭配错误;for…areas搭配错误;逻辑意思上讲such as的列举中应该是attitudes与relative merits的并列,也可以从另一个角度分析:如果是attitudes与merits并列的话,不应该再用those toward,而直接用and连接,如果是两个attitudes并列的话最多补出and toward,从两个方面来讲and those toward都是错的;另外and those toward前面的逗号不应该有
E. Help the doing搭配错误;around area搭配错误;like无法表示列举,应当换成such as;逻辑意思上讲列举中应该是attitudes与relative merits的并列;另外and those of前面的逗号不应该有
