标题: 请教OG180中的as if/as though (省略形式)

看了前人的贴子后,还是有一个地方迷惑:


到底AS IF和AS THOUGH后面的状语从句能运用"乘主句主语省略原则"吗?有没有其他类似的例子?


如果可以,能不能把选项C看成:We see them as if we were during the formation of the universe.?


如果能的话,那C为什么不对呢?(ASIF表示虚拟,即表明"我们没有存在于宇宙形成之时",所以逻辑上似乎是对的?


先谢过各位NN!

当状语从句的主语和谓语(甚至是宾语)一样时(谓语时态也必须一致),可以省略主语和谓语(甚至是宾语),


因此C选项补足省略部份后为:we see them as if we see them during  the formation of the universe.


因此不符合逻辑的表述为:我们看见quassars, 就像我们在宇宙形成过程中看见他们一样。


E选项补足后:they appear to us as though they appear to us in  the formation of the universe.



180. Quasars are so distant that their light has taken billions of years to reach the Earth; consequently, we see them as they were during the formation of the universe.



(A)  we see them as they were during



(B)  we see them as they had been during



(C)  we see them as if during



(D) they appear to us as they did in



(E)they appear to us as though in



Choice C presents a dangling adverbial modifier, as if during ..., that illogically modifies we see.






In E, as though in distorts the meaning to suggest that we see the quasars in a hypothetical situation_ that is, that they may not have been involved in the formation of the universe.








我有一个和Redwing类似的问题,关键在于OG对C和E的解释上。因为as if 应该和as though是一样的。




1、既然按E解释:as though虚拟 they(quasars)可能没出现在宇宙形成过程k中(与事实相反,事实是:他们有存在宇宙中。)



那么C就对了,C也表虚拟,我们在宇宙形成过程中看见他们。(与事实相反,事实是:我们确实没存在宇宙中啊)





2、如果按C解释: “如同我们在宇宙形成过程中看见他们”是不逻辑的(因为事实我们并没在宇宙中出现)。没按虚拟来解释,却按陈述语气来解释了。与上面所说的虚拟矛盾。



则E中“如同我们在宇宙形成过程中看见他们”也是不逻辑的(因为事实我们也没有在宇宙中出现)。按C的陈述语气来解释。





那么这两个解释是矛盾的,they(quasars)虚拟是错的we的解释却不是虚拟,而是不逻辑,即根本没按虚拟来看。



一句话不可能对一部份虚拟,对一部份却按陈述语气来看吧。太矛盾了。



是不是应该结合两个解释来解释C和E才完整呢?即虚拟是错的(对they而言),即使不按虚拟看也是错的(对we而言)。






请大家帮忙看一看吧!






Faint!越看OG越多问题,什么时候才能找到所谓的感觉啊?
