[問題]OG88

[jay41]

88. The Emperor Augustus, it appears, commissioned an idealized sculpture portrait, the features of which are so unrealistic as to constitute what one scholar calls an "artificial face."

(A)so unrealistic as to constitute
(B)so unrealistic they constituted
(C)so unrealistic that they have constituted
(D)unrealistic enough so that they constitute
(E)unrealistic enough so as to constitute
ans:A

在og的解釋中.(Choices D and E use unidiomatic constructions with enough:
unrealistic enough to constitute would be idiomatic, but the use of enough is imprecise and awkward in this context.)
問題一：為什麼，這�用enough不精確和awkward。
問題二：enough to ; so....that ; so.... as to 是否相同，如果不同有何差異？
問題三：so as to ; so that 是否相同，如果不同有何差異？

類似的考題大家可以參考，OG#67;Form17p16#5
各位大大可以為我開釋一下嗎...........我被搞亂了........
謝謝............ :)

問題一：為什麼，這�用enough不精確和awkward。

用法用的不好，這裡的enough是副詞，so也是副詞， enough to是慣用搭配

問題二：enough to ; so....that ; so.... as to 是否相同，如果不同有何差異？
意思相同，用法不同
enough to + v
so that 加子句
so as to + V，同時全句的主詞要一致

問題三：so as to ; so that 是否相同，如果不同有何差異？
相同，但理由同上

五個選項中
A對
B少 that
C時態錯
DE的enough錯

sorry，我沒注意到我沒劃底線.........

我懂了.........謝謝agk99指點迷津

[CUGGYER]

我想請問在BCD中的they 是代什麼阿 我找不到他的referent
而且OG裡都沒有提到這題關於代名詞的解釋

[ivygirl]

這裡的they指的應該是features
這句話大意是說：
...理想化的雕塑像，這些雕塑像的特徵是如此的不真實以致於這些特徵(they)組成了學者所謂的"artificial face"

有錯請指正！

[cheyen]

OG解釋中提到
Also, B would be better if that were inserted after so unrealistic, although the omission of that is not ungrammatical

但是B選項是
so unrealistic they constituted-->加入that-->so unrealistic that they constituted

constituted仍是過去式呀?!
不是和題中的are ,calls(表態為現在式)不合?

有人看出這邊的問題嗎
大人指點指點^^

[CUGGYER]

Thus, neither the past tense verb constituted (in B) nor the present perfect verb have constituted (in C) is correct.
OG裡也有提到B的過去式不一致唷

[cheyen]

多謝CUGGYER的回覆
你提的那點我也是有看到
只是og又補上對B的解釋(如我上面提到的)
也很同意
我後來到CD去看看
也是有人提到這問題
有些是說解釋中的一小段話
would be better if that were inserted after so unrealistic, although the omission of that is not ungrammatical
只說would be better....
og的解釋真怪...

The verbs are and calls indicate that the sculpture is being viewed and judged in the present. Thus, neither the past tense verb constituted (in B) nor the present perfect verb have constituted (in C) is correct; both suggest that the statue's features once constituted an artificial face but no longer do so. ....--- >這藍色的地方是什麼意思呀?看不太懂這句要表達什麼說

[doggyface922]

以下是CD的解釋....

在GMAT裡，現在完成時表示過去大段時間 for instance: in the last decades 或者一個從過去一直延續到現下的狀態，但對將來沒有預表。所以og解釋”but no longer do so“。
這句句子強調的是一個一直發生的狀態，而不是強調這個狀態的完成。

[dibert8]

so ... that/ so as to 不能跟 enough 混用, 刪除 (D) (E); (B) 裡 so ... that 不成對, 錯了; 剩下 (A) (C) 選一個, 比較長短 => (A)
其實 (C) 裡的 they 指 features, 跟 (A) so as to 的主詞相同, 因此判斷 (C) 沒有 (A) 簡潔; 另外 (C) 用完成式並沒有時間參考點以說明從過去某時持續到目前的動作.

[dibert8]

The Emperor Augustus{, it appears,} commissioned an idealized sculpture portrait, the features of which are so unrealistic as to constitute what one scholar calls an "artificial face."

it appears 是插句,沒有文法意義 => The Emperor Augustus commissioned an idealized sculpture portrait, the features of which are so unrealistic as to constitute what one scholar calls an "artificial face."

which = portrait
附屬結構裡沒有別的主詞了,就是 features. 單一主詞 => so...as to
