123. Sales of wines declined in the late 1980s, but they began to grow again after the 1991 report that linked moderate consumption of alcohol, and particularly of red wine, with a reduced risk of heart disease.
(A) they began to grow again after the 1991 report that linked moderate consumption of alcohol, and particularly of red wine, with a reduced risk of heart disease
(B) after the 1991 report that linked a reduced risk of heart disease with a moderate alcohol consumption, particularly red wine, they began growing again
(C) in a 1991 report, moderate alcohol consumption, and particularly of red wine, which was linked with a reduced risk of heart disease, caused them to begin to grow again
(D) with a reduced risk of heart disease linked in a 1991 report with moderate alcohol consumption, in particular red wine, they began growing again
(E) a reduced risk of heart disease linked to moderate alcohol consumption in a 1991 report, and in particular red wine, started them growing again
答案解析如下:
(A)they began to grow again after the 1991 report that linked moderate consumption of alcohol, and particularly of red wine, with a reduced risk of heart disease
【正确】 代词“they”出现在主谓结构“they began to grow again”的主语部分,因此根据“平行指代优先”原则可以明确地指代另一个主谓结构“Sales of wines declined in the late 1980s”的主语“Sales”。“of alcohol”和“of red wine”正确地用“and”平行在一起连接在“consumption”之后。“particularly”是介词短语“red wine”的修饰语,相当于“especially”。
【大意】 酒的销售额在20世纪80年代曾下滑,但在1991年一份报告将适度的酒精摄入,尤其是红酒的摄入与低心脏病风险联系起来后,他们(销售额)又开始增长。
(B)after the 1991 report that linked a reduced risk of heart disease with a moderate alcohol consumption, particularly red wine, they began growing again
【错误】 修饰成分:与形容词“particular”不同“particularly”是副词,不能做名词“red wine”的修饰语,而可以向(A)中那样作介词短语“of red wine”的修饰语。
(C)in a 1991 report, moderate alcohol consumption, and particularly of red wine, which was linked with a reduced risk of heart disease, caused them to begin to grow again
【错误1】 平行结构:“particularly of red wine”与“moderate alcohol consumption”两者逻辑含义不对等,不应用“and”平行在一起。
【错误2】 修饰成分:在GMAT考察的标准书面英语中,定语(名词的修饰语)与修饰对象之间的跳跃修饰(两者之间间隔其他结构)逊于能够合理避免跳跃修饰的选项。“which was linked with……”本意上跳跃修饰“moderate alcohol consumption”,但语法上完全可以修饰“red wine”。
【错误3】 句子意思:“moderate alcohol consumption”本不应是“caused them to begin to grow again”,并不是“适度的酒精摄入”导致酒水销售量再次增长。
(D)with a reduced risk of heart disease linked in a 1991 report with moderate alcohol consumption, in particular red wine, they began growing again
【错误】 修饰成分:“particular ”在本选项中修饰“red wine”表意为“摄入一种特殊的红酒(与较低的患心脏病的风险关联)”,表意并不合理。
(E)a reduced risk of heart disease linked to moderate alcohol consumption in a 1991 report, and in particular red wine, started them growing again
【错误】 修饰成分:见(D)。
【最优解题思路推荐】
本题句子结构较为杂乱,完整地分析很费时间,但可以反复考察“particular(ly)”的语法,根据平行结构、修饰成分的原理排除(B)、(C)、(D)、(E),因此选择(A)。
