考点: 逻辑表达（Logical Predication）、简洁有效（Rhetorical Construction）平行对称（Parellelism）
1) 介词+动词分词放在在句尾,逻辑主语可能等于主句的主语,也可能等于所修饰的动词的逻辑主语
2) being错误使用: 以下几种表达中being属于多余
a) being + n. b) being + adj. c) as being + n./adj./v-ing
3) sth is sth是一种平行结构,其中sth和sth一定要能够对应,平行
(A) it无指代; best extraction意思表达模糊;being pounded中being多余
(B) best extract意思表达模糊, after pounding无论是修饰主句的主语还是所修饰动词的逻辑主语都是修饰saffron threads, 因此pound应该使用被动语态pounded,因为saffron threads不能主动用mortar和pestle去搞烂,而是被mortar和pestle搞烂
(C) the best way to extract is soaking…不平行,应该改为the best way to extract is to soak…;介词短语after being pounded修饰soaking的逻辑主语或者主句的主语the best way, after being pounded修饰the best way不符合逻辑,修饰soaking的逻辑主语(可以想象是某人soaking them…)也不符合逻辑
(D) 正确, the best way to extract… is to soak结构平行;them指代saffron threads,指代正确;after pounding them修饰soak的逻辑主语(可以想象为某人),符合逻辑
(E) The flavor of saffron threads can best be extracted by表达笨拙; it没有指代
句子结构: The best way to… is to…
补充说明:sth is sth的平行,对应在实战中不容易看得出来,平时训练的时候看到be动词,也要警惕,是否会考到平 行,对应.举OG10th 84题为例
