标题: OG verbal 113 之前有人问过,没给出解答 再问一次 求解
In A.D. 391. resulting from the destruction of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria, later generations lost all but the lliad and Odyssey among Greek epics, most of the poetry of Pindar and Sappho, and dozens of plays by Aeschylus and Euripides.

A. resulting from the destruction of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria,
B. the destroying of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria resulted and
C. because of the result of the destruction of the library at Alexandria, the largest of the ancient world,
D. as a result of the destruction of the library at Alexandria, the largest of the ancient world,
E. Alexandria's largest library of the ancient world was destroyed, and the result was
answer is D

问题主要是D中the largest of the ancient world, 是作为the library的同位语或者插入语吧。
我印象中像同位语以及插入语都是就近修饰的吧,也就是说the largest of the ancient world也有可能修饰Alexandria??


求解释。。。。谢谢

稍有点逻辑的人不会认为是修饰Alexandria。因为是在说library的毁坏,补充修饰的一定是library。

the largest of the ancient world在這裡修飾的是“the library at Alexandria”

noun modifier雖然說一般是符合touch rule原則,但是也有很多例外的,最根本的還是要通過meaning來判斷。

另外,我覺得這裡沒有違背touch rule原則,at alexandria是修飾library的介賓短語,說明library的地點,意思是“在a地的圖書館”。後面的同位語修飾的是這個整體“在a地的圖書館”,而不僅僅是“圖書館”。

hope that helps
