(A) colder and wetter than was usual in some regions, which slowed (B) which was colder and wetter than usual in some regions, slowing (C) since it was colder and wetter than usually in some regions, which slowed (D) being colder and wetter than usually in some regions, slowing (E) having been colder and wetter than was usual in some regions and slowed作者: hookem09 时间: 2012-3-9 00:43
B is correct. Which correctly modifies "weather" and slowing is another independent modifier for sales.
"having been... was" is not parallel and sounds really awkward.作者: SilverGrin 时间: 2012-3-9 00:49
不对吧， Slowing在语义上应该是 修饰 2个原因， 在语法上修饰的应该是Analysts 或者整句话的动作， 那就变成了 是Analysts 或者Analysts blame 的这个动作导致了Slowing的结果。 这是我疑惑的地方~作者: hookem09 时间: 2012-3-9 03:21
the "slowing" phrase correctly modifies "sales" even though it was split by another modifier in between. If you have the manhattan sentence correction handbook (8th book), go to page 91 (chapter 6, modifiers) and look at the example on how to use a present participle to modify a noun. I used to struggle with this split but that section explained this useful pretty well. Go check it out.作者: SilverGrin 时间: 2012-3-9 06:15
