标题: og 15

15. In his research paper, Dr. Frosh, medical director of the Payne Whitney Clinic, distinguishes mood swings. which may be violent without their being grounded in mental disease, from genuine manic-depressive psychosis.



(A) mood swings, which may be violent without their being grounded in mental disease, from genuine manic-depressive psychosis



(B) mood swings, perhaps violent without being grounded in mental disease, and genuine manic-depressive psychosis ,



(C)between mood swings, which may be violent without being grounded in mental disease, and genuine manic-depressive psychosis



(D) between mood swings, perhaps violent without being grounded in mental disease, from genuine manic-depressive psychosis



(E)  genuine manic-depressive psychosis and mood swings, which may be violent without being grounded in mental disease


The best choice is C because it uses the idiomatically correct expression distinguishes between x and y and because it provides a structure in which the relative clause beginning which may be violent clearly modifies mood swings. The other choices use distinguishes in unidiomatic constructions. Additionally, their in A is intrusive and unnecessary, and the modifier of mood swings in B and D (perhaps violent) is awkward and less clear than the more developed clause which may be violent.


我的问题是这道题中 which may be violent without  being grounded in mental disease     的意思是什么 ?


WHICH 为什么在这里指MOOD SWINGS


谢谢~!

which引导的定语从句应该修饰离它最近的词。mood swings离的最近,所以就指它。如果还可以指别人,就说明这用法除了歧义,需要改正啦
