128. New hardy varieties of rice show promise of producing high yields without the costly requirements of irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer by earlier high-yielding varieties.
(A) requirements of irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer by earlier high-yielding varieties
(B) requirements by earlier high-yielding varieties of application of commercial fertilizer and irrigation
(C) requirements for application of commercial fertilizer and irrigation of earlier high-yielding varieties
(D) application of commercial fertilizer and irrigation that was required by earlier high-yielding varieties
(E) irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer that were required by earlier high-yielding varieties
Choice E, the best answer, clearly and grammatically expresses the idea that two costly procedures, irrigation and the application of... fertilizer, were required by earlier high-yielding varieties of rice. In A, the placement of by earlier... varieties immediately after application of fertilizer suggests that the varieties applied the fertilizer. In B and D, the phrase application of... fertilizer and irrigation is ambiguous in meaning: it cannot be clearly determined whether applying fertilizer and irrigating are a single operation or two distinct operations. In C, only irrigation--not both irrigation and fertilization--is clearly associated with the earlier... varieties of rice.
答案是E,但感觉E还是漏洞很多,首先irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer 中,为什么就不会产生irrigation and (application of commmercial fertilizer)的歧义?
而且前面的costly究竟是修饰到irrigation,还是irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer 也不清晰.
请教大家!为什么如此大歧义的句子会是正确的?
costly是修饰irrigation和application的,还原就是costly irrigation and costly application of commercial fertilizer
如果是单独修饰irrigation的话,就应该变成application of commericial fertilizer and costly irrigation.
另外 irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer 中, A and B of C; C只是修饰B 的,不是A andB
另外 irrigation and application of commercial fertilizer 中, A and B of C; C只是修饰B 的,不是A andB"
why?
thanks
HELP!
从逻辑意思上,commercial fertilizer 不能灌溉的
这种修饰太烦!
不过还是谢谢石头mm
ft 我是猫诶
基本上,我认为介宾短语应该不能跳跃修饰,它应该紧跟着修饰的先行词。但是不敢确定
等NN 释疑
