37.Joann,the newest student at Leon Blum high school,has been portrayed as the brightest student and also the most unruly of them.
the brightest and yet the most unruly of students.
點評:記住吧。。。the brightest and yet the most unruly of students,后面還有一道關于老虎的題也差不多。
38.Ann’s parents explained that she was promoted to hear journalist for the reason that her articcles were mindful always for both side of the issue.

39.(常考題:轉折)Many wealthy taxpayers pay less than ten percent of their annual incomes to the government,some middle-income taxpayers pay a much larger percentage annually.
Although many wealthy taxpayers pay
點評:轉折句,富人少給,較窮人多給,故用“雖然。。。但是。。。”SAT題中很多都談到這種“不公平”現象。改的時候一般在前就用Although,在后就用yet。(和那個非洲人和美國人收入題類似)
40. OW was almost as brilliant a novelist as he was at writing plays.

45.Before 1988,the CBD included 153 menbers,none of the member were women.
members,none of whom were women.
點評:原句run-on了,所以后面不能是一個完整句子。同時“none of 一群對象”后面謂語用復數。
46.Although talent may be a crucial element on the road to fame,it will be difficult to get very far without a highly developed work ethic.
Right!
點評:正確!這個句子前面出現過,不過考察方向不同。這種句式“Although…is important”,后面常用“it is…to…”不用比較級,除非有對照物。
