有一题不明白:
Although the manager agreed to a more flexible work schedule,( he said that it must be posted on the bulletin board so that both mangement and labor will know what everyone is) assigned to do.
A.he said that it must be posted on the bulletin board so that both mangement and labor will know what everyone is
D.he said that the schedule would have to be posted on the bulletin board so that both mangement and labor would know what everyone was

虽然说D中的have to没有A中的must好,但是主句中是SAID过去时,而从句中是现在时,WHY???

个人观点:
1. D中的SCHEDULE属于多余, 用IT 指代很清楚所以D不如A简洁。
2  原句意思是说尽管经理同意了这SHEDULE,他还是说既然如此今后要如何。。。就是这个意思。D中的语态明显不对更不用说还有点虚拟的意思。

理解句意比较重要。

有道理哦,TKS!

但是,主句和从句的时态不是应该一致的吗?
另有一题:
ETS原题:
(As sales of cars and light trucks made in North America were declining 13.6 percent in late February, many analysts conclude )that evidence of a recovering automotive market remains slight.
A.As sales of cars and light trucks made in North America were declining 13.6 percent in late February, many analysts conclude
B.Since sales of cars and light trucks made in North America declined 13.6 percent in late February,and many analysts conclude
C.With sales of cars and light trucks made in North America declining 13.6 percent in late February, with many analysts concluding
D.Because sales of cars and light trucks made in North America declined 13.6 percent in late February, many analysts concluded
E.Because of sales of cars and light trucks made in North America declining 13.6 percent in late February, therefore many analysts concluded
Answer is D.为何OG中强调的主从句时态一致的原则在这没用了呢?

many examples in GMAT/OG use the structure as below:

Something happened in the past and thus a conlusion was made that "... is/do/does..."

because the conclusion also applies to the current situation~

天啊,那我怎么知道是不是对现在有影响,到现在还适用?

丫头觉得第一题的
D have to be done 就一定不对

to summer02618
这题不是时态一致的嘛 ?

第二题的A逻辑有问题吧!AS表示随着.......

随着过去正在下降的销售额 分析家现在做出结论......

ets 的题都有毛病: 前一题D的毛病更大:不简洁,

客观事实:黑板上有字时,谁都看得见

第一个题  宾从中 MUST 可以用原行 无需用HAD TO 替代...!

呵呵 LZM中所谓的鲜为人知的原则...

在英文裡面 時態通常是由舊到新(依句意啦)
d是”可能”的語氣
但是在這句話裡 manager同意已經是一個事實 而不是假設
所以a 比較好

第二個問題
前面是要告訴你原因 ”因為什麼什麼 所以什麼什麼”這種情況下 because比較好

而sales declined是已經發生的
所以分析師的結論也是已經成立的
但是他的結論還是存在的

不知道說的對不對 大家討論一下吧

lisaislisa MM:
第一题我知道must可以用于过去,我是指后面的 will
第二题concluded和后面从句中的remains
还有,难道黑板上写的都是真理吗?只有真理才永远用现在时吧?否则一切都有可能会时过境迁啊?

我觉得在时态有争议的时候,不要看时态(相对错误),要看句子中绝对的错误。用HAVE TO 代替MUST几乎必错。而主谓时态不一致的常有发生,因此时态只能算相对错误。
第二题,我的理解:AS从句在句首,有两种含义:表时间伴随;表原因。因此有歧义。(但也只能算相对错误,我就看到过AS放句首没错的)改成BECAUSE从句更清楚。

以下是引用卧室春竹在2003-1-13 16:01:23的发言:
第一个题  宾从中 MUST 可以用原行 无需用HAD TO 替代...!

呵呵 LZM中所谓的鲜为人知的原则...

同意楼上: 一般不要轻易更改原句中的情态词, 如must, may, can等.
