标题: 请教----关于分词的修饰对象 [打印本页] 作者: meyian 时间: 2012-4-23 23:34 标题: 请教----关于分词的修饰对象 今天做OG第56题：Many of the earliest known images of Hindu deities in India date from the time of the Kushan Empire, fashioned either from the spotted sandstone of Mathura or Gandharan grey schist. 看到答案对A中分词fashioned的解释是：Placement of the modifier fashioned...suggestes that the Empire(the closest noun), not the images of the deities, was fashioned out of these materials.
请问逗号后面的分词一般都修饰最近的名词吗？可是我怎么记得分词都是修饰主句的主语来着？
比如OG第66题：把B答案带进去是：The 32 species that... are closely related to whales and in fact include the animal known as the killer whale, growing as big as 30 feet long and famous for its aggressive hunting pods. 答案说B不对是由于growing introduces ambiguity, because it could refer back to the subject of the sentence(32 species).
