85. Out of America's fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.
(A) things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing
(B) things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing
(C) things that are antiques has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring
(D) antique things have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing
(E) antique things has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that bring
Choice B is best. In A and D, have grown does not agree with the singular noun market. In addition, all of the choices except B use plural verbs after that, thus illogically stating either that bygone styles of furniture and fixtures, or fixtures alone, are reviving the particular pieces mentioned(由于主谓一致使用不当造成的歧义); it is instead the market for those styles that is bringing back such pieces, as B states. Furthermore, choices C and E, by using the verb form bring, fail to convey the ongoing nature of the revival properly described by the progressive verb is bringing.
前面的things antique，为什么要倒装呢？不是否定词在句首才倒装吗？如果不倒装可以吗？就是把B改成antique things对吗？
也解答了我同樣的問題... 謝~~~!!!
A few more examples:
all things considered
all things strings
all things Christmas
你可以认为 all things (are) considered, 省略了are .
形容词作为定语修饰名词时，要放在名词前面。但是如果形容词修饰以-thing为字尾的词语时，要放在这些词之后，例如：something nice; things antique
如果不倒装可以吗？就是把B改成antique things对吗？
想知道。。。
如果不倒装可以吗？就是把B改成antique things对吗？
这个就要问问nn们了！我感觉，如果改成antique things就不地道了！当然这只是个人意见，还请那位nn来指点迷津啊！
antique things是可以的；
用Google搜 "antique things"
有好多显示。
可是google上出现的不知道满不满足ets的要求呢
以前的题目中是不是没有出现antique things这种结构，我做的不多，请nn指点迷津
I consider that at least from this problem ETS profers the style of "things antique",or else why E is not the correct answer.
就是在找这个问题的答案，终于找到了
除了這個想法以外
以下是引用rhod在2004-10-19 20:32:00的发言：
修饰things一般用后置修饰, 比如something good, nothing bad, anything possible等...
我覺得阿 all things antique跟 all antique things意思上不是完全一樣
似乎all things antique 比較像是所有的東西 什麼東西呢 舊的東西
all antique things 就是老舊的東西
第一個比較強調all things 第二個比較強調antique things
不過只是一點小小的想法 大家討論討論
《张道真实用英语语法》P529谈到限制性定语从句的省略时说：在被修饰词为all, everything等词时，关系代词可以省略。
例句：All (that) you have to do is to fill out this form.
That is the only thing (that) we can do now.
XDF老师也说过，定语从句的"that be"可以同时省略，而且必须同时省略。
《张道真实用英语语法》P391谈到形容词的位置时说：修饰something, nothing这类合成词的时候，形容词通常位于它们的后面：e.g. I am looking for something cheaper.
不知道这里的all things antique和all antique things适用于哪一条呢？还是像有些NN分析的那样，前者强调antique,后者强调things？
形容词作后置定语的几种情况
1. 当形容词修饰由 any-, every-, no-, some- 和 -body,-one, -thing 等构成的复合不定代词时，形容词需要后置。
2. 当形容词修饰起名词作用的 anywhere ， somewhere 时，通常后置。
3. 以 -able 或 -ible 结尾的形容词一般充当后置定语，表示暂时的特征或现象，而且中心名词前大多有形容词最高级或 all, only, every 等。
4. 以字母 a- 开头的表语形容词，如 asleep, awake, afraid, afloat, alive 等作定语时，通常后置。
5. else 修饰疑问代词时，须后置。
6. 当形容词前有 so, more, most 等词修饰时，常后置。
7. 形容词短语通常后置，其功能相当于一个定语从句。
8. 两个或两个以上的形容词用 and 或 or 连接作定语，表示强调意义时要后置。
9. 形容词比较结构须后置定语。
10. 有些形容词作前置定语时和后置定语时所表达的意义不同。
