Grammatik to'g'ri, lekin baribir xato

60-dars son haqida edi. Bu dars boshqa nuqson haqida: olmosh soni bo'yicha to'g'ri bo'lishi mumkin va gap baribir buzilgan bo'ladi — chunki u ikkita otga barobar ishora qiladi.

📝 Namuna:

The council sent the report to the contractor, but it was never published.
Nima nashr etilmagan — hisobotmi, kengashning qarorimi? report ham, council ham, contractor ham birlik. Grammatika jim, ma'no esa ikkiga bo'lingan.

Bu savol imtihonda boshqa savol bo'lib keladi. Uning shakli — «Which choice completes the text with the most logical and precise word or phrase?» — va to'g'ri javob deyarli har doim olmosh emas, otning o'zi.

⏱ ~35 soniya

Ikki qadam

1. Nomzodlarni sanang. Bo'sh joydan oldingi gapda nechta ot shu o'ringa tushishi mumkin? Ikkitadan ko'p bo'lsa, olmosh bilan tugaydigan har qanday variant tushadi.

2. Qolgan otli variantlardan to'g'ri otni tanlang. Ular ataylab boshqa-boshqa narsalarni nomlaydi — gapning davomi qaysi biri ekanini aytib beradi.

⚠️ Tuzoq: it · this · that · they — to'rttasi ham «noaniq» sifatida variantlar ichida turadi. Ular hech qachon javob emas — shu savol turida. Boshqa savol turlarida olmosh javob bo'lishi mumkin, shuning uchun avval savol matnini o'qing: most logical and precise so'zlari bu turning imzosi.

Ishlangan namuna

In 1953 a federal court held that the company had to publish the output figures it had kept private for a decade. was reversed on appeal four years later, but by then three newspapers had already printed the tables in full, and the numbers could not be taken back.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical and precise word or phrase?

  1. It
  2. The ruling
  3. The company
  4. The publication

1-qadam — nomzodlar: birinchi gapda birlikdagi uchta ot bor: a federal court, the company, the decade, va yana butun held that… qarori. Bittadan ko'p — demak olmosh tushadi.

2-qadam — qaysi ot? Apellyatsiyada qaror bekor qilinadi. Kompaniya ham, nashr ham emas.

TO‘G‘RIThe ruling — sudning qarorini aniq nomlaydi, va aynan qaror bekor qilinadi. Gapning davomi ham buni tasdiqlaydi: gazetalar jadvallarni allaqachon chop etib bo'lgan edi.
TUZOQItbu savol turining bosh tuzog'i: grammatik jihatdan benuqson, ma'no jihatdan noaniq — sud, kompaniya yoki qaror.
TUZOQThe company — kompaniya bekor qilinmaydi. Bu ot gapda bor, lekin bu o'ringa tushmaydi.
TUZOQThe publication — nashr etish sudning buyrug'i edi; bekor qilingan narsa buyruqning o'zi, ya'ni qaror.
📌 Eslatma: E'tibor bering: noto'g'ri otli variantlar tasodifiy emas. Ular matnda bor bo'lgan otlarni oladi va sizni «tanish so'z» hissi bilan tortadi. Har birini bo'sh joyga qo'yib, gapni oxirigacha o'qing.
