大全267

17.   During the nineteenth century Emily Eden and Fanny Parks journeyed throughout India, sketching and keeping journals forming the basis of news reports about the princely states where they had visited.

(A) forming the basis of news reports about the princely states where they had 1。从句比分词好，2。Visit是及物动词，必须加名词，所以这题要么用that，要么省略，不能用where3。时态错

(B) that were forming the basis of news reports about the princely states

(C) to form the basis of news reports about the princely states which they have

(D) which had formed the basis of news reports about the princely states where they had（E）

(E) that formed the basis of news reports about the princely states they

In choice A it is not immediately clear whether forming modifies journals or parallels sketching and keeping. (？？))Also, where they had visited is wordy and inappropriate for a simple reference to past events. (时态错)Choice B does not establish who visited the princely states, (没有说明谁去访问)and that were forming should be that formed. (时态错)Choice C is unclear because to form could be read as either in order to form or so as to form, (？？？)and the present perfect have visited does not agree with the past tense journeyed. (时态不对)In choice D, as in choice a, where they had is faulty, and had formed suggests that the journals and news reports existed before the journey. (时态错)E is best for this question of average difficulty.

“主句, doing1 +名词+doing2/done”, 这里doing2/done可认为即能修饰主句，又能修饰前面的名词。这种结构要尽量避免，除非根据逻辑关系，明显不会产生歧义，则可被接受，参见大全877的armed的用法。

1 In choice A it is not immediately clear whether forming modifies journals or parallels sketching and keeping. (？？))

OG这句解释没读懂 forming 在journals后 可以认为修饰前面的名词 我不明白是如何理解为平行呢

如果要平行 要这么用啊 ：sketching, keeping journals and forming

2Choice C is unclear because to form could be read as either in order to form or so as to form, (？？？)

这句没有读懂 in order to / so as to 不是都是表示目的吗 没什么区别吗

另外 我想问的是 to form 的逻辑主语是人 是不是不对啊 应该这样用

used to form

我的理解对吗

谢谢

1 - I think OG want to warn that 'A' will probably be viewed as 'sketching and keeping... (and) forming'.

2 - I also cannot differentiate between 'in order to' and 'so as to' in this condition. In longman and kingsoft, 'in order to' is almost equal to 'so as to'. But I think that the answer of your question 我想问的是 to form 的逻辑主语是人 是不是不对啊 is yes. Although 'use' in 'use to form' is right, 'use' is not necessary in the sentence that contain 'form'

stoneren: 谢谢你的答复

2我想问的是 to form 的逻辑主语是人 是不是不对啊 is yes. Although 'use' in 'use to form' is right, 'use' is not necessary in the sentence that contain 'form'

我对不定式的逻辑主语一直没感觉的 我再次确认一下

人 to form the basis 是错误的吧 逻辑主语只能是什么东西

Although 'use' in 'use to form' is right, 'use' is not necessary in the sentence that contain 'form'你说的我不理解

在OG

我理解in order to和so as to还是有点差别的，但是我还没有通过查字典来加以验证。我觉得in order to有很强的主观目的在里面，就是说我一开始干这件事的时候就明确了要达到一种什么样的结果；而so as to 除了表示了主观目的性以外，还表示了一种客观上产生的结果，虽然这个结果并不是我一开始就预料到的或者想达到的，但是最后客观上就是形成了。

第一个问题，我和stoneren斑竹的看法一致。

非常感谢stoneren

不定式是我的一个真空 尤其是不定式的逻辑主语 原则已经明白了  极有必要好好总结整理

再次感谢stoneren

OG39，我的理解：a method used to protect相當于a method which is used by people to protect，若要用a method to protect，就必須是people use a method to protect

樓上的問題，to protect在這裏是脩飾a method，不能說a method protect，隻能說a method is used to protect，所以隻能用a method used to protect

a method to deal with the problem就可以，因為可以說a method deals with the problem，也可以說a method (is) used to deal with the problem，但是，相比之下，就顯得羅嗦

我想問一下，如果將C改成to form the basis of news reports about the princely states which they had，這樣對嗎？

to form錶示目的，had visited錶示在sketching和keeping之前遊覽過的地方

Visit是及物动词，必须加名词，所以这题要么用that，要么省略，不能用where

什么意思？

另外 我觉得过去完成时似乎更好啊
