标题: 【求助大神】OG1585题关于Like的用法
OG1585According to a recent poll, owningand living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of amajority of young adults, like that of earlier generations.

A like that of earlier generations

B as that for earlier generations

C just as earlier generations did

D as have earlier generations

E as it was of earlier generations



Parallelism

This sentence compares a single goal sharedby generations. The second part of the sentence must have the same structure asthe first part: a clause with a subject and a verb. The phrase owning … land is the subject of thefirst clause; in the correct sentence, the pronoun it refers back to this phrase and is the subject of the secondclause. The first verb is alsoparallels the second verb was. Theprepositional phrases of a majority ofyoung adults and of earliergenerations are parallel and correct.

A. Phrase, without subject and verb, is notparallel to the main clause.

Like相关正确用法:

Theword like is the most commoncomparison marker.

Eg.

Frank’sbuild,LIKE that of his brother, is broad and muscular.

Frank’sbuild,LIKE his brother’s, is broad and muscular.

Like不能比较两个of结构。因为Like就近比,此处是adultsthat比,而that指代goal不可比。

E. In this sentence as shows comparison and introduces a subordinate clause in whichall grammatical elements correspond to those in the main clause.

这题正确答案是E,上面是我自己写的结合OG的解释。

Question:
关键是对于这句:Like不能比较两个of结构。因为Like就近比,此处是adultsthat比,而that指代goal不可比。感觉有点问题。我个人感觉两个of结构,a goal of a majority of young adults, like that of earlier generations.这里的that指代goal,两个goal平行也挺合适的。也没有哪本书明确指出Like不能比较两个of结构,有大神有什么依据拿出来说服一下小弟么?

我觉得不是like / of 的问题
句意:是“拥有独立住房是年轻人的目标,就像拥有独立住房是上一代的目标一样” (此题预示着我们的未来?人生代代无穷已,房价年年不相似?),换言之对比结构为X is a goal for YOUNG PEOPLE vs X is a goal for OLD PEOPLE. X是同一个东西(拥有独立住房),也就是说x like X不是逻辑表述(因为X是同一个东西)),而X is a goal for A, like X is a goal for B是错误结构因为like不能对比clause  (X is a...like X is a)。由此延伸,X is a goal for A, as X is a goal for B 则ok. 因此,唯一正确的结构是E, X(owning a house)is a goal for young people, as X was for older people

A的问题是结构, X is a goal for B, like that of C (说的是B像是C的that,但不是that指啥)

As连接两个句子的比较,前后时态不一致,后面的be动词用was必须补出来。另外A,B选项中用that指代free standing house on its land 是不可以的。

不是NN,说一下我的理解,请赐教

According to a recent poll, owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults, like that of earlier generations.

A like that of earlier generations(like后只加简单的名词)

B as that for earlier generations(as后不是完整句子)

C just as earlier generations did(just as A do, so B do 是固定搭配)

D as have earlier generations(as表示比较,应该加完整的句子)

E as it was of earlier generations(it指代goal,用was是因为前后时态不一样,一个是现在年轻人的目标,一个是以前几代人的目标


翻译过来是:拥有和住在一个自己的自由的小房子里任然是大多数年轻人的目标,和前几代人的目标一样

至于你说的like和as。我做的题目中like都是加了简单名词,凡是那种后面结构超级复杂的都被排除了……as是要加一个完整的句子

不是的,曼哈顿语法书第五版中对Like有举例。
Like相关正确用法:


The word like is the most common comparison marker.


E.g.


Frank’s build,LIKE that of his brother, is broad and muscular.


Frank’s build,LIKE his brother’s, is broad and muscular.

上面的用法都是对的。

it指的不是那个东西。具体可以看看2楼。我觉得2楼说的是对的。
