205. The peaks of a mountain range, acting like rocks in a streambed, produce ripples in the air flowing over them; the resulting flow pattern, with crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are known as “standing waves.”
(A) crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are
(B) crests and troughs that remain stationary although they are formed by rapidly moving air, are
(C) crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, is
(D) stationary crests and troughs although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are（C）
(E) stationary crests and troughs although they are formed by rapidly moving air, is
请问大家， 这里OG 205 是不是也可以解释为：stationary 前置不知道是修饰谁的原因呢？
或者只是因为although clause 的原因？
谢谢！

问题不太清楚。
不过，我猜测，你是在问D、E两个答案的问题吧。
我认为不是因为“stationary 前置不知道是修饰谁的原因”，而是“因为although clause 的原因”，造成了D、E的错误。
Choice E uses the correct verb form, is, but it incorrectly introduces a dependent adverbial although clause into a prepositional phrase (with crests ...). Choice D also makes this error.

我对于OG205题E错的解释中的一部分不明白，
Such dependent clauses can only occur in the predicates of full clauses.
这是什么意思哪？

楼主的问题我也一直在困惑中,关于这个形容词的修饰范围问题,究竟这道题是不是属于修饰不清?同时贴出og的前面一题,如果这个不是修饰问题,那这个又怎么解释?!谢谢大家了!
112. Domestic automobile manufacturers have invested millions of dollars into research to develop cars more gasoline-efficient even than presently on the road.
(A) into research to develop cars more gasoline-efficient even than presently on the road
(B) into research for developing even more gasoline-efficient cars on the road than at present
(C) for research for cars to be developed that are more gasoline-efficient even than presently the road
(D) in research to develop cars even more gasoline-efficient than those at present on the road
(E) in research for developing cars that are even more gasoline-efficient than presently on the road
Choice D, the best answer, uses the preposition than to compare two clearly specified and grammatically parallel terms, the cars the manufacturers hope to develop and those at present on the road. In A, the phrase more gasoline-efficient ... than presently on the road does not identify the second term of the comparison. In B, the misuse of modifying phrases produces an ambiguous and awkward statement: even more gasoline-efficient cars could refer either to more cars that are efficient or to cars that are more efficient. Choices B, C, and E all use research for [verb] where the idiom requires research to [verb]. In addition, C awkwardly separates even from more, and C and E again fail to indicate the second term of the comparison.

这个我也有问题。
那选项(C)也有个单独的although clause，和(E)的although clause的作用有什么不一样呢？

同问。
1、
(D) stationary crests and troughs although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are（C） stationary修饰谁？从语法上是两个都修饰吗？还是只有crests？
2、
C crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, is
这个定语从句修饰的又是谁？？

although 是连词，不是介词。它可以连接句子，但是不能连接名词和句子.

我的理解是 crests and troughs +that +定语从句（定语从句本身是个主从复合句即 troughs remain stationary although the air that forms them is moveing rapidly), is
中间的that 就可指代troughs. 所以 省略了troughs
作者: ford424 时间: 2005-3-11 01:27
colacat 的意思是说adj.+N and N结构修饰是有歧义的?
作者: uajasmine 时间: 2005-3-11 10:57
stationary crests and troughs would be considered to be unclear by OG
C crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, is
这个定语从句修饰的又是谁？？good question!

C crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, is
这个定语从句修饰的又是谁？？有歧义。如果只修饰后者，那么更好的方法是troughs that ....., and crests这种表述，OG里Messenger那片文章是个好例子；如果要修饰二者，偶比较prefer在that从句里面放一个both之类的

作者: xealot 时间: 2005-3-11 14:08
楼上，偶觉得有没有歧义要看具体：
A sexy lady and a guy.... (what's the implication..?)显然没歧义啊~~~
作者: ford424 时间: 2005-3-11 14:46
那回归到这个题目,stationary crests and troughs,stationay是修饰谁的呢?
作者: colacat 时间: 2005-3-11 14:54
都有可能 crests 或者crests and troughs
作者: ford424 时间: 2005-3-11 14:58
xealot认为呢?
作者: xealot 时间: 2005-3-11 15:11
这个....
偶觉得硬要把stationary放在前面好像确实有歧义....
作者: ford424 时间: 2005-3-11 15:14
也就是说adj.+N and N的结构可能产生歧义了,ets其实有的时候很白吃,连火山都可以在信里面暴发...
考试的时候时间紧,估计也没时间想意思,还是模型化感觉实在.
不知道大家意见?
作者: ford424 时间: 2005-3-14 00:52
大家给点意见啊!

这题我试着总结一下：
首先crests and troughs that remain stationary 不能改成stationary crests and troughs ,前者表示作为一个动态的过程, 不可以省略或者改成be的形式，类似的还有remain, become, come, go ；后者表示状态。
其次：
Although S1 + V1 , S2 + V2.
其中 although S1+V1 是屬於 adv.clause , 修飾 main clause 的 V2
而#205 在兩個"," 之間有個 prep.phr (with crests and ....)他沒有動詞V ,
所以如果這裡放進去一個adv.clause ( although the air ...is moving ) 或是 (although they are formed..), 那這個 adv.clause就不知道要修飾哪裡了

总结的好！就听你的了。
