标题: OG 85

85. Out of America's fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.

(A) things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(B) things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing

(C) things that are antiques has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

(D) antique things have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing

(E) antique things has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring

为何不选E? "that" 不是只可以修饰最近的名词fixtures 吗? 修饰market太远了会有歧义的!

修饰market太远了会有歧义的!

由于老弟没有将OG的相关解释一并贴出，而我也没有资料在手也就只好凭印象答题了，哈！

介定是否VAGUE的语法点ETS并未逐一说明，泛泛而言，VAGUE与否不是指修饰与被修饰语的远近来介定；而是说A在修饰B的情况下可以修饰C，则此时ETS认定句意不清。

多看OG的相关解释会发现，THAT等名词性、形容词性从句可以适当跳跃修饰，只要不引起争议。

借用XDF老师的语法总结：一个句子有ABCDEFG部分依次排开：

ABCDEF介词G，Which从句。此时从句可以修饰G或F，即从句可以跳跃一次。

回到上句，

85. Out of America's fascination with all things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.

此时THAT从句恰好符合XDF规则；

而ETS的解释又是怎么样的呢？

一般而言，它均从语意及逻辑入手，再佐以语法规则；以上文为例：

1.语意及逻辑而言：是市场而非其他将chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub. 带回来；

2.语法规则：THAT从句使用IS单数来规避修饰 bygone styles of furniture and fixtures 之嫌（修饰后者须用复数）

不知如此解释，楼主能否接受？

非常清楚! 谢谢! 我以前以为"that",",which"只可以修饰最近的名词是公理呢!
