曼哈顿 SC 总结 Chapter 1 Sentence Correction Basics 一道例题 Although William Pereira first gained national recognition for his movie set designs, including those for the 1942 film Reap the Wild Wind,future generations remember him as the architect for the Transamerica Tower, the Malibu campus of Pepperdine University and the city of Irvine. A:including those for the 1942 film Reap the Wild Wind,future generations B: like that for the 1942 film Reap the Wild Wind,future generations will C:like those for the 1942 film Reap the Wild Wind,future generations D: including that for the 1942 film Reap the Wild Wind,future generations will E:including those for the 1942 film Reap the Wild Wind,future generations will 这道题用两点split。 GMAT规定，Like不能用于举例；注意，在之后的说明中，曼哈顿说The GMAT used to claim that ‘like’ simply meant ‘similar to’ and could not introduce examples. However, the exam writers have moderated this hardline duty in published explanations. As a result, either ‘including’ or ‘likelihood would technically work in the sentence. GMAT规定，进行指代时，如果有单复数转换，不能用代词指代，而应换作相对应的名词。 做题时间 一般不多于90秒钟，理想状况下，花费60-75秒。 做题步骤 细读原文 理解原文中作者本意，顺带看是否有错误出现。 如发现错误，默默记下，以备之后作为排除依据； 如未发现错误，不要留恋，只要保证理解了文字的字面意思和作者本意即可。 纵向扫描，找split 不要读选项，只是纵向寻找不同点（split）。 看句首和句尾，此两处必有split，不然画线不会画到它们。 迅速找到多个split，找最容易区分的。 选取最简单split进行筛选 所谓简单，就是容易找/容易比较/容易决定。语法语义两个角度来分析 选定第一个split 用同一个split，去检查其他选项是否也犯了同样的错误 如此反复，一直剩下唯一一个选项 把选项带回原文，重读，确定和原文匹配 Chapter 2 Grammar Meaning 关于“简洁” 考生现在太过重视简洁问题，导致GMAT很愿意把错误选项弄得最毒。所以，一般来说，不到万不得已（比如，剩下两个选项，没有别的split可用了），就不要用“简洁”来做split 句义 分三部分： 选对词；放在正确的位置；和周边搭配(make sense together)。 选对词。此处给出了一些类似的词组 Economic (monetary) vs. economical (thrifty节俭的, effectual) Aggravate (worsen) vs. aggravating (irritating使人恼怒的) Known as (named) vs. known to be (acknowledged as) Loss of (no longer in possession of) vs. loss in (decline in value) Mandate (command) vs. have a mandate (have authority from voters) Native of (person from) vs. native to (species that originated in) Range of (variety of) vs. ranging (varying) Rate of
