标题: 探讨Prep08的一道题
With surface temperatures estimated at minus 230 degrees Fahrenheit, Jupiter's moon Europa has long been considered far too cold to support life, and with 60 square miles of water thought to be frozen from top to bottom.

(A)...
(B) Europa has long been considered far too cold to support life, its

答案是B,其他的选项就不列了。

我在想出题人为什么会出个and with的混淆项。让我们看看这个句子的结构。这个句子有两个独立主格结构把主句夹在中间 - A,句子,B - 这会不会是A中有and with的原因呢?

如果我们把A中的and去掉,变成With surface temperatures estimated at minus 230 degrees Fahrenheit, Jupiter's moon Europa has long been considered far too cold to support life, with 60 square miles of water thought to be frozen from top to bottom.这个句子读起来也怪怪的。我的问题是为什么第一个with独立结构中的surface temperatures能很自然地和Europa联系起来,而后面的60 square miles of water和Europa的联系就不紧凑了呢?我猜测这和独立主格结构代不代with有关系,但具体有什么区别我不清楚。等待NN解答。感兴趣的朋友可以一起讨论。
