Galileo was convinced that natural phenomena, as manifestations of the laws of physics, would appear the same to someone on the deck of a ship moving smoothly and uniformly through the water as a person standing on land.

(A) water as a

(B) water as to a

(C) water; just as it would to a

(D) water, as it would to the（B）

(E) water; just as to the

as manifestations of the laws of physics是什么意思？

那这个介词短语的逻辑主语是哪个？phenomena？这一句怎么读不顺。

   我觉得这是个插入语，就是修饰natural phenomena的

  类似的有he worked as a driver

  自然现象作为一种物理规律的表现

   满通顺的啊

    还有两天考，我现在是随便ETS怎么搞了，反正我就这水平了，高也好，低也好

    考完不管多少分，再也不想遭ETS的罪了

我找了些关于as的语法规则,不过不是很对症,大家可以勉强一看

同意dreadpower，作为插入语，修饰phenomena。

Galileo was convinced that natural phenomena, as manifestations of the laws of physics, would appear ...

(1) 不可以换成like，不是“像...一样”，而是表示“作为、看成”,介词

(2) 如果去掉as作为同位语的话，意思上稍有差别，感觉还是加as更好一些。

open to discuss.

as manifestations of the laws of physics

它作为介词短语,不是会产生歧义的吗?

不能确定是修饰前面的动词还是后面的动词啊.

另外如果删除AS成为同位语的话,manifestations of the laws of physics就成了解释phenomena的了,但是,我觉得这样有问题,因为,现象并不是证明,而是现象可以作为证明某种东西手段.

不知道理解的对不对
