GMAT语法部分的常用词组有哪些呢?澳际留学于近期总结了一批GMAT语法的常用词组,并推荐给广大考生,目前正在积极备战GMAT考试的同学不妨参考一下。
21. Subjunctive rule
The prerred rule for GMAT is this:
subjunctive word (such as demand, suggest, recommend, require, order, mandate) + that + NOUN + BASE FORM of the VERB (e.g., be, go, stop, run, excel) i.e., the infinitive without the to part.
2) All five-hundred dollar and thousand-dollar bills were withdrawn from circulation in 1969, and this lt the one-hundred dollar bill to be the highest denomination of currency.
a) and this lt the one-hundred dollar bill to be the highest denomination of currency
b) an act which has lt the hundred-dollar bill to be the highest crrency denomination.
c) leaving the highest denomination of currency to be the one-hundred dollar bill
d) leaving the one-hundred dollar bill as the highest denomination of currency.
this, which, that, and other pronouns MUST replace nouns, not sentences.
this in A) and which B) rer to the entire sentence.
In A, this replaces the whole sentence All five-hundred dollar and thousand-dollar bills were withdrawn from circulation in 1969. If we choose D, we have a participial phrase, which GMAT allows to modify a sentence.
21 Quick rules:
because + SENTENCE
because of + NOUN
despite/in spite of + NOUN
due to should only be used as a complement (i.e., after a be-verb (yeah, stupid rule, but some people are adamant about it)) NOT as a preposition (i.e., NOT at the beginning of the sentence).
for as a subordinating conjunction is rare, but acceptable. I‘d trust my ear on this one.
22 one or the other vs one or another
If the claims of coastal nations to 200-mile territorial seas were accepted on a worldwide basis, more than thirty percent of the worlds ocean area would come under the jurisdiction of one or other national states.
(A) one or other national states
(B) one or another national state
(C) one or the other national state
(D) some or another of the national states
(E) each and every national state
Generally, the other means the second one. In other words, we can only use the other one when we are talking about only two things, such as our eyes, feet, ears, hands, or legs.
For example, I have two sisters. One is a doctor, and the other one is an artist.
23. who vs whom ( Conjuction )
First, many of who is WRONG; we need many of whom.
(Rule: quantifier + of + object.
Examples: some of whom, half of which, 44% of whom, etc.)
I saw two movies this weekend, both of them were good.
On first listen, this sounds correct, but it‘s not, for reasons that may seem at first hard to explain. However, if we realize that we have two sentences, I saw two movies this weekend and both of them were good, then we‘ll also realize that we must have a conjunction between them to join them (the basic rule of conjunctions and parallel structure).
The classic corrections (in descending order of likeliness of appearing as correct answers) are:
- I saw two movies this weekend; both of them were good. (joining two sentences with a semi-colon)
- I saw two movies this weekend, both of which were good. (using a relative pronoun (aka subordinating conjunction)
to join two sentences)
- I saw two movies this weekend, and both of them were good. (using a coordinating conjunction to join two sentences)
24. use of as such
Caesarea was Herods city, founded as a Romanized counterweight to Hebraic Jerusalem, and being such it was regarded with loathing by the devout.
(A) being such
(B) as such
(C) for this
(D) so
(E) so being
This sentence has format: founded as + n. , and as such + sentence
1. as such - because it is that thing
Example :I‘m a teacher, and as such, I should try to help you.
2. as here is a preposition and must therore be followed by a noun.
3. so is used to replace verbs, adjectives, and adverbs, but NOT nouns; we use such for nouns.
