标题: 有when的复合句中,代词指代的问题。

累积起来的一个问题想请教一下:


noun phrase 1(此为主句主语)... noun phrase 2  (此为主句宾语的中心词)of noun phrase 3..., when pron  verb...


在这种情况下,when后面的代词应该如何指代?


是就近指代noun phrase 3/?2, 还是应该遵从主句的主语noun phrase 1, 或者是应该从逻辑语意上判断when后面的代词有没有指代歧义的问题。


相同的问题,我在有because 的复合句中也存在。


请高人赐教!很抱歉,一时找不出具体的题目来。我在章的语法书上也翻了好半天都两个小时了,也没搞明白。


谢谢!

好吧!这么说可能太抽象了。终于找到了两个例子。


og 10th N1


1. The Wallerstein study indicates that even after a decade young men and women still experience some of the effects of a divorce occurring when a child.
A. occurring when a child
B. occurring when children
C. that occurred when a child
D. that occurred when they were children
E. that has occurred as each was a child

Choice D is best. The phrasing a divorce that occurred when they were children correctly uses the relative clause that occurred to modify a divorce and includes a pronoun and verb (they were) that refer unambiguously to their antecedent, men and women. Choice A incorrectly introduces the when... phrase with occurring, thus illogically making divorce the grammatical referent of when a child; furthermore, the singular child does not agree with the plural men and women. B replaces child with children but otherwise fails to correct A's errors of structure and logic, and C corrects only the error created by occurring. Choice E includes an incorrect verb tense (has occurred) and wrongly replaces when with as. Also, each was does not properly refer to men and women.

也就是说:Young men and women still experience (some of) the effects (of a divorce) that occurred when they were children.中 "they" unambiguously refers to "young men and women".


[我觉得some of the effects of a divorce 中的中心词是the effects 所以就用加黄亮出来了。]


在og 11th No. 51中


The Olympics Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek (world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month.)


C> world when they proclaimed a sacred truce for the festival month


D> world, for a sacred truce was proclaimed during the month of the festival


中og 对选项c的评价为:


"they" is ambiguous, possibly referring to either " the states" or "the Games".


也就是说... The O Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world when they...


中的they指代有歧义?


我的问题是:为什么在og1中是没有起义的呢?


难道是须借助逻辑语意来区分:如果出现 noun phrase 1 ... noun phrase 2, when they,只要能从逻辑句意中明显看出they 的指代对象,就ok吗?


请指教!
