标题: OG12 SC 133 关于主语的单复数问题. [打印本页] 作者: gollom 时间: 2011-11-4 12:08 标题: OG12 SC 133 关于主语的单复数问题. 133. Last week local shrimpers held a news conference to take some credit for the resurgence of the rare Kemp's ridley turtle, saying that their compliance with laws requiring that turtle-excluder devices be on shrimp nets protect adult sea turtles. (A) requiring that turtle-excluder devices be on shrimp nets protect (B) requiring turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets is protecting √ (C) that require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets protect (D) to require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets are protecting (E) to require turtle-excluder devices on shrimp nets is protecting
我有个疑问,即OG解释The subject of the clause introduced by saying that is the singular noun compliance. 但是该句的主语不应该是compliance with laws么? 两者应该为复数不是么?
期待各位解答.不甚感激作者: gollom 时间: 2011-11-4 13:55

compliance with laws依然是单数的。 主语是compliance，我觉得有点类似于集合名词吧，比如a team of members，后面依然用单数的，而不因为members而变成复数
