17. The pattern of
whisker spot on the face of a male lion, like human fingerprints, are a
lifelong means of identification, since they are both unique and unchanging.
(A) like human fingerprints, are a
lifelong means of identification, since they are both unique and unchanging
(B) like human fingerprints, is a
lifelong means of identification, since it is both unique and unchanging
(C) like human fingerprints, is a
means of identification for life, being both unique and unchanging
(D) since they are both unique and
unchanging, are, like human fingerprints, are a means of identification for
life
(E) both unique and unchanging,
are, like human fingerprints, a lifelong means of identification
答案是 B,我的问题是B中的it会不会存在指代不清的问题?另外being的主语是the pattern,而且being可以表示原因,C为什么不行?
我觉得B中的it不会出现指代问题,like human fingerprints作为插入语,从句主语优先指代主语主语since从句主语指代the pattern应该不会有问题
而C选项根据ETS的逻辑,being主语可能有歧义,语法上修饰life逻辑上修饰pattern
恩,在A of B的结构中由于一般主词是A所以代词也一般指代A,但也有例外情况
但这里也在强调从句的代词指代,一般从句中出现的代词优先指代主句中的主语,特别是定语从句中出现的代词更是优先指代先行词.
楼上说的分词修饰谁的问题,感觉OG中好像有逗号后分词被它解释成有歧义的,也可能是我记错了
再找找
