关于Baby姐和54楼同学的“冲突”我来说一下我的看法,我当时也注意到第25题和Prep08笔记中的夹心修饰的提法有冲突,但仔细看完OG13,前后总结了一下,如下:
,我来说一下我对逗号+VING在它前面没有句子时的用法的看法。OG13第25题,Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, are now drawing solid conclusions about how the human brain grows and how babies acquire language.
(A) Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood, are
(B) Neuroscientists, having amassed a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood over the past twenty years, and are
(C) Neuroscientists amassing a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood over the past twenty years, and are
(D) Neuroscientists have amassed a wealth of knowledge over the past twenty years about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood,
(E) Neuroscientists have amassed, over the past twenty years, a wealth of knowledge about the brain and its development from birth to adulthood,
答案是A。
我当时也是不明白A中的having amassed部分到底是做定语还是状语。找来找去,最后在C选项的解释里找到了答案。
C Amassing, like having amassed, functions as an adjective, not a verb; the sentence therefore lacks the first main verb implied by the compound verb construction and are now drawing....
我想这是OG自己说的,amassing和having amassed功能上是形容词,所以having amassed是做定语。
B选项的解释是B Phrase carefully coordinating... illogically modifies the noun that immediately precedes it: book illustrations; Potter, not the illustrations, did the coordinating.
翻译过来是carefully coordinating 不和逻辑的修饰了它前面的名词book illustration。OG在这里也没说carefully coordinating既可以同时向前修饰同时也可以向后修饰,因为这个产生歧义所以才错。它就只说了是向前修饰。所以,这里又是一个逗号+Ving做定语修饰紧挨着它前面的名词的例子
关于Baby姐和54楼同学的“冲突”我来说一下我的看法,我当时也注意到第25题和Prep08笔记中的夹心修饰的提法有冲突,但仔细看完OG13,前后总结了一下,如下:
首先,我们要明白我们现在考的是GMAT,经过一段时间的学习大家都知道GMAT的语法和通常的语法有些不一样,它似乎更严格,有些词平时有多种意思可在某些场景下使用,但确在GMAT中不被允许使用。比如按照大家以前的语法习惯,whether和if都可以引导宾语从句,但是在GMAT里,它规定只能用whether引导。可能是if后面跟句子的时候时还可以表示是条件,意思是如果,这是我个人的理解。而且在读Manhattan的那本语法书时,它也多次提到GMAT的语法里边跟平时我们用的有点不一样。所以,结论,我们既然是在考G
,那么就一定要按照GMAT的游戏规则来出牌。那么GMAT的规则在哪里体现呢,那么最权威的莫过于OG了,而且是最新版的OG13。所以我们一切都要以OG上面的规则为准,哪怕你是这个权威,那个大牛呢,在和OG给出的规则有冲突时,一切以OG为准。
Baby姐,主要不是ving放在句首的情况啊,我指的是第二点,因为在总结having done的用法的是时候,又想到了这道题,觉得像yiayia之前总结的说s,ving....,vo ving做none modifier的话就是错的,这边having done,是只能做状语的,不能做定语 所以我觉得总结的第二点

这个就是noun modifier,没错的。你注意这部分前后的逗号成对,所以是插入,是non-essential modifier.
下面两个句子,我们假设没有上下文。
1. Tom's father, having come to school early this morning, came to school again just now.
2. The man having come to school early this morning came to school again just now.
这两句中,"having come to school early this morning"都是noun modifier,修饰前面的主语。
第一句话,两边都有逗号,是插入的non-essential noun modifier。就算去掉,我们也知道说的是"Tom's father",非常明确。这个v-ing modifier只是对主语作补充说明。
第二句话,"having come to school early this morning"是essential noun modifier. 假如去掉,就是"The man came to school again just now." 读者并不知道"the man"是谁,所以必须要加"having come to school early this morning"来告诉读者,我说的就是那人。
neuroscientist那句话,属于第一种情况。
至于句末的"comma+v-ing"一定是状语,这是完全不同的话题。咱这里讨论的是插入语,就是逗号成对。
