标题: 请教一道语法题
Emily Dickinson’s letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumbering her letters to anyone else.

C.Dickinson

D.Dickinson

E.Dickinson

请教:该题的答案是E,但是outnumber不要用过去式么?

不需要啊,没有time frame 表示要使用 past tense
假如没有特别time frame你不可以shift时态的。

句子主干就是一个简单的比较

Emily Dickinson’s letters 。。。。 outnumber  her letters to anyone else.
在这个层面没有过去时的time frame

非常感谢!
但是再次请教:
were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886
这些都不能算time frame么?
谢谢!

这是一个修饰成分而已,不能作为time-frame(因为信已经写完了,所以是were written


这里用的outnumber你可以理解为是一个人,在present time-frame 说出的这句casual statement
如果用的是outnumbered,你更加强调的是这件事已经发生完了


既然没有这个时态的选项,你大可不必纠结,时态也是change the meaning的一个常考点

in 1886”是一个time frame 但是在你决定它是谁的修饰语之前,你要看清楚它的位置。
OG 里面对于时间词的位置放置是有讲究的,因为它会影响到它修饰的对象是谁,语义什么。一般来说它要紧靠时间词的修饰对象来确保其语义清晰, 这里"In 1886"位置在修饰语内 ”ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886“ 用来就近修饰 emily's death 的时间短语的。 即:这题中你不可以把“in 1886”理解为它是outnumber的修饰语(语义语法都不行)。这也是我最初帖子说的,在主干这个层次(out number)不需要过去时的原因

同时OG也接受有多个modifer修饰的时候,“modifer” 不紧靠修饰对象的前提上。
