TTGWD4-Q39.

Unearthed in China, fossils of feathered dinosaurs offer the most dramatic evidence yet discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds.

A. offer the most dramatic evidence yet discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds

B. offer evidence more dramatic than what has yet been discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds

C. offer more dramatic evidence of the close evolutionary relationship than any yet discovered between dinosaurs and birds

D. have offered the most dramatic evidence of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds

E. have offered more dramatic evidence than any that has yet been discovered of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds

答案：A。请问下A中的yet discovered是修饰evidence还是修饰fossils的呢？这个分词修饰成分为什么会放到evidence of搭配之间呢？请nn多多指教！

我觉得是修饰evidence。fossil的话差的太远了。

过去分词discovered应该修饰就近的名词evidence，起定语成分。也可以改写为非限定性定语从句的句式：evidence that has been discovered yet。把yet discovered放在evidence和of...中间是为了更加清楚的表明修饰关系。试想一下，如果是放在句末，即evidence of the close evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and birds yet discovered，则很容易引起yet discovered是修饰dinosaurs and birds的歧义。至于为何这里要用yet，我也很有疑惑，如果要表达“迄今为止”的意思，肯定用already，疑问和否定用yet，但这里明显是肯定，为何要用yet呢？请高人指教下！
