大多数情况下平行结构都是具有一定的比较含义的,有的是递进对比not onlybut (also) ;prefertorather than有的是同类对比:and ;but;or;both andeitheror neithernor..
平行结构测试时候注意以下几点:
1.注意比较结构中相比较的内容在语法形式上是否相同。如:
It is better to die ones feet than .
[A]living on ones knees [B]live on ones knees
[C]on ones knees [D]to live on ones knees
(答案为D)
Despite the temporary difficulties, the manager prefers increasing the output to decreasing it.
2.其他具有并列或比较意义的短语也可引导平行结构。
1)rather than, let alone 虽不是并列连词,但在结构上连接两个语法形式相同的成分。如:
We are taught that a business letter should be written in a formal style in a personal style.
[A]rather than [B]other than [C]better than [D]less than
答案为A
For the new country to survive, for its people to enjoy prosperity, new economic policies will be required.
[A] to name a few [B]let alone [C]not to speak [D]lets say
(答案为B)
2)如果平行的两个成分在形式上是介词短语,而且介词相同,一般说来第二个介词不要省略。如:
