prep2012里关于which指代的问题求教

arleneyau

Roughly twice each century the planet Venus passes between the Earth and the Sun, an occasion known
as a transit of Venus, during which it makes the outline of the planet visible in stark relief.
A. during which it makes the outline of the planet
B. during which the outline of the planet becomes
C. so that it makes the outline of the planet
D. such that during which the of the planet becomes
E. such that the outline of the planet becomes

为什么这里的which可以跳跃指代occasion呢？A of B,which结构不是就近指代吗？

sisichen666

during which明显表达的是一段时间内——对应occasion，并且LZ可以注意下其实后面都是occasion的修饰语occasion（known as。。。。），during which。。。

arleneyau

啊我知道它的意思是在指代occasion的。。只是语法上貌似which是要就近指代Venus？还是说这里有什么例外啊？

as here set up an equation


an occasion referred here is exactly a transit of Venus




so the use of which can be construed to modify occasion or a transit of Venus；both will make sense

那像这题The commission proposed that funding for the park's development, which could be open to the public early next year, is obtained through a local bond issue.

A.that funding for the park's development, which could be open to the public early next year, is
B.that funding for development of the park,which could be open to the public early next year, be
C.funding for the development of the park, perhaps open to the public early next year, to be
D.funds for the park's development,perhaps open to the public early next year, be
E.development funding for the park, which could be open to the public early next year, is to be

B
这里的which是指代the park不是development of the park，和a transit of Venus是不是类似呢？还是有啥不同所以which在前面那题才能指代整个A of B名词？

还是楼主自己先理解下哈：http://forum.chasedream.com/GMAT_SC/thread-499613-1-1.html

其实跳跃修饰貌似不是G的主要考点。。。一般跳跃就出现在题干中，而且即使出现在题目选项中也很好看出来的，或者是那其他较好的表达方式代替which跳跃表达。。。。LZ其实了解有这么情况就好啦。。。。不用太纠结。

谢谢你哦~我看了，觉得帖子开头“从属关系“A of B，which”中的which就近修饰紧邻的名词B”就是这个意思。。。后面有一个特例说：“有人这里会说这不是A of B，which吗？which应该紧邻修饰啊？其实不然，因为of 1968和前面的那些A of B实际上用法不一样，这里是表示时间而不是“从属关系”。这个时间应该归在介词结构一类，所以要跳过。”，但是the transit of Venus明显还是从属关系的。。和the production of prostacyclin 以及The survival of coral colonies是一类，所以我还是不明白这里为什么和之前的题不一样。。

从题目中看split找出which的修饰到底有没有歧义


没有绝对的跳跃指代规则


你要从题目的选项来分析就近原则是不是考点

我突然想到会不会因为这里用的是during which而不是直接的which，所以during在这里是一个跳跃修饰的cue？就和之前的“Emily Dickinson’s letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson ，which were written ...”一样，were也是个跳跃修饰的cue~
