在GMAT的语法中经常会遇到:句子+逗号+现在分词的结构。根据OG的解释,有的题目说现在分词修饰句子主语(1题),有的题目说现在分词修饰临近的核心词(30题),实在不知道怎么才是正确。请教这种结构下的现在分词到底是做主语或临近词的定语还是整体句子的状语?此问题虽然不大,但是一直迷惑。 以下是题目实例: 1. The Glass House Mountains in Queensland, Australia, were sighted in 1770 by the English navigator Captain James Cook,by whom they were named supposedly because its sheer wet rocks glistened like glass. (C) naming them supposedly since their OG解释是Captain James Cook不是句子的主语,他是by的介词宾语。所以-ing不是修饰它而是修饰Mountains 我的问题:是不是可以理解为在介词短语中的词不能做为现在分词修饰的对象,如果不是在介词中的情况下是不是现在分词可以修饰临近词? 26. 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. OG的解释:outnumber的修饰对象不明确 我的问题:这个现在分词是做定语还是状语,真是糊涂了。有的人说现在分词在句尾或做伴随说明的状语必须与主句同时发生,这个题目不符合。或是做结果状语,这个题目在逻辑上讲不通。 30. For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment, a method to protect warriors against enemy arrows and spears. (c)protecting OG解释:protecting引导一个短语说明items的作用。 我的问题:现在分词是不是可以理解为修饰item,这里为什么不是修饰shields? 59. The Olympic Games helped to keep peace among the pugnacious states of the Greek world in that a sacred truce was proclaimed during the festival's month. (B) world, proclaiming a sacred truce during the festival's month OG解释是:proclaiming即可能修饰GAMES又可能修饰STATE 我的问题:按照OG的解释推论,现在分词在此句中是做定语么? |
