GMAT语法逻辑类错误“有迹可循”(二).

　　许多GMAT考生向小编反映，GMAT考试目前的GMAT语法有日渐变难的趋势，尤其是对于同学们谈虎色变的GMAT语法中的逻辑类考题，大家经常很难看出题目当中所蕴涵的逻辑错误，从而导致莫名其妙的失分。针对这种现象，澳际小编对此类考题加以分析，希望对大家会有所帮助。

　　4.The physical structure of the human eye enables it to sense light of wavelengths up to 0.0005 millimeters; infrared radiation, however, is invisible because its wavelength—0.1 millimeters—is too long to be registered by the eye.

　　(A) infrared radiation, however, is invisible because its wavelength—0.1 millimeters—is too long to be registered by the eye

　　(B) however, the wavelength of infrared radiation—0.1 millimeters—is too long to be registered by the eye making it invisible

　　(C) infrared radiation, however, is invisible because its wavelength—0.1 millimeters—is too long for the eye to register it

　　(D) however, because the wavelength of infrared radiation is 0.1 millimeters, it is too long for the eye to register and thus invisible(A)

　　(E) however, infrared radiation has a wavelength of 0.1 millimeters that is too long for the eye to register, thus making it invisible

　　这道题目与刚才那道题的解题思路是完全一样的，我们再来体会一下这种题的出题特点。题干说人类眼睛的物理结构使它能感受到波长0.0005的光，然而射线是看不见的，因为它的波长是0.1，这太长了以至于不能够被眼睛探测到。A选项说波长看不见，这是个正确的逻辑，没有问题，然而B选项说射线的波长太长了以至于波长不能被看见，这就不对了。我们可以说射线看得见或是看不见，但是不能说波长看不见，因此B选项也属于词与词之间的逻辑搭配关系错误。

　　5.Although the term “psychopath” is popularly applied to an especially brutal criminal, in psychology it is someone who is apparently incapable of feeling compassion or the pangs of conscience.

　　(A) it is someone who is

　　(B) it is a person

　　(C) they are people who are

　　(D) it rers to someone who is(D)

　　(E) it is in rerence to people

　　题干说尽管术语psychopath指的是一个特别残忍的罪犯，在心理学中它指的是某个人，他对别人没有同情心也不会受到良心的谴责。这道题的出题思路与上两道题略有不同，A，B选项谓语动词用了be动词，变成术语是某个人了，这个逻辑就错误了，术语指的是人而本身不是人，所以逻辑搭配错误，答案应该选D。

　　6.Promotions, retirements, deaths, and other actions approved by the board of directors at its May meeting will be reported in the July 15 issue of the company paper.

　　(A) Promotions, retirements, deaths, and other actions approved by the board of directors at its May meeting will be reported in the July 15 issue of the company paper.

　　(B) Promotions, retirements, and other actions which have been approved at the May meeting of the board of directors along with deaths, with be reported in the July 15 issue of the company paper.

　　(C) To be reported in the July 15 issue of the company paper are the promotions, retirements, deaths, and other actions which were approved at the board of directors’ May meeting.

　　(D) Meeting in May, the promotions, retirements, and other actions approved by the board of directors, including obituaries, will be reported in the July 15 issue of the company paper.(E)

　　(E) The July 15 issue of the company paper will report on promotions, retirements, and other actions approved by the board of directors at its May meeting; the paper will also include obituaries.

　　这道题目的难度比较大，考场中如果不能保持清醒的头脑，很有可能会把题目做错。题干的意思是提升，退休，死亡，和其他活动在五月份的董事会议上被批准了，这将会在7月15日的公司报章上有所报道。稍加分析我们就会发现问题，提升和退休可以被批准，死亡怎么能被批准呢，这明显属于词与词之间的逻辑关系搭配错误。答案应该选E，句子的最后另起了一个分句，这个文章也会包括死亡报告，消除了逻辑错误，而且用了obituaries是death的书面语，更符合商业英文的习惯。

　　3.事物本身不能和它自身进行比较，要把自身排除在外

　　这类考题又是考察了另外一种解题思路，事物在与其他事物进行比较时一定要把自身排除在外，因为自身和自身进行比较是没有任何意义的。一般情况下这种题目的正确答案都会加上other这个词。

　　7.Los Angeles has a higher number of family dwellings per capita than any large city.

　　(A) a higher number of family dwellings per capita than any large city

　　(B) higher numbers of family dwellings per capita than any other large city

　　(C) a higher number of family dwellings per capita than does any other large city

　　(D) higher numbers of family dwellings per capita than do other large cities(C)

　　(E) a high per capita number of family dwellings, more than does any other large city

　　题干说落杉矶有更高的人均家庭住宅要比任何一个大城市，很明显落杉矶本身也是个大城市，它不能和自身进行比较，所以A错，答案选C，加了other以后就把落杉矶自己排除在外了。

　　8.It is not likely that the competitive imbalance that now exists between Japan with all major industrial nations will be redressed during the foreseeable future.

　　(A) with all major industrial nations will be redressed during

　　(B) with all other major industrial nations will be redressed within

　　(C) with all other major industrial nations will be redressed during

　　(D) and all major industrial nations will be redressed during(E)

　　(E) and all other major industrial nations will be redressed within

　　此题考点与上题完全一样。题目的意思是不可能有竞争性的平衡存在于日本和所有的工业国家之间，日本本身也是个工业国家，要把自身排除在外，答案选E，加了other。

　　以上就是GMAT语法逻辑类错误的所有内容，掌握了其中的规律后GMAT语法考试就不像大家说的那么难了，接下来小编将分享更多GMAT考试信息，最后也希望大家在GMAT考试中取得佳绩。
