今天看到manhattangmat的一位小弟很崇拜的老師寫了以下的文章, 真的是非常認同, 因為我發現很多人把時間浪費在研究一些不是考點的東西, 對付GMAT不是在學英文, 而是在抓出那些出題者心目中所謂"標準英文"的看法.
since this appears in a CORRECT ANSWER, it is obviously acceptable.
DO NOT QUESTION OFFICIALLY CORRECT ANSWERS. it is a complete waste of your time to do so, since they are, well, correct answers. everything in them is, by definition, correct and acceptable.
therefore:
incorrect reaction: "hey, isn't this wrong, even though it appears in a correct answer?" (no, it's not wrong.)
correct reaction: "wow, that's strange. i just learned something new about SC!"
--
yes, this may be frustrating and irritating. if it makes you feel any better, i'll have you know that we instructors are constantly learning new things from the correct answers, too. (i'm occasionally quite surprised by what i see in correct answers, but i can't question them ... and neither can you, or the other guy, or anyone else who doesn't work for gmac.)
