第一题:当like+n.作状语时,象所有的介词短语作状语一样,要考虑它在句中的位置和用来修饰什么,不可导致歧义。
我们注意到A选项和D选项都符合语法规则,也都和前面的children保持数的一致性,从纯语法规则上讲是都正确的。但是A存在歧义。我们不清楚like adults是和前一个分句构成整体还是和后一个分句构成整体。也就是不知道大人是在“do not organize”这个动作上和小孩一样还是在“may notice and remember”这个动作上和小孩一样。所以有歧义。好在前后两个分句的助动词不一样,所以可以使用as结构区分。因为as结构的助动词和前一个分句一致的话,就应该和前一个分句构成整体;同样,和后一个分句的助动词一致的话,就应该和后一个分句构成整体。
第二题: like 常用于比较名词,作独立成分,大部分时候出现在句首。
