likui说:
答案选D，但是我觉得是A
lily 说:
A 的which不对.
likui 说:
你觉得which指代什么？
lily 说:
应该是修饰前面整句话.which不可以, 或者就近指代, 或者跳跃指代前面的名词.
likui 说:
不可能指代整句话，amount这个动词不能用来说前面的情况怎么样；
a minority in California，which指代这个
lily 说:
你可以把它当做现在分词做状语.
lily 说:
意思错.你说which就近修饰对, 但是A的意思错.
likui 说:
为什么？
lily 说:
看一下后半句的意思, 倒底是要表达什么.
likui 说:
不就是说这种whites占的比例的变化吗
lily 说:
你认为后半句修饰a minority in California 好, 还是做状语修饰前面的句子好?
likui 说:
a minority in California
lily 说:
后半句是说这种minority占的比例的变化吗？不可以这样理解.
likui 说:
为什么？
likui 说:
关键 在于A中的only，这个东西是轻易不能删掉的
lily 说:
OG里有些题涉及到which.
lily 说:
另外我觉得对句子的理解是关键.
likui 说:
关键还是only，我认为
lily 说:
我看这道题没有看到only, 就直接排除ABC
likui 说:
现在分词放句尾，表示伴随方式或者伴随结构；这里这么用不合适吧
lily 说:
我觉得很恰当.
likui 说:
only没有就是改变句子原意
lily 说:
没有绝对的.
lily 说:
句子意思是主旨
lily 说:
句子的修饰还是有区别的.
likui 说:
要说D对也在于是优选结构的优选，分词优于从句
likui 说:
而amount做动词显然不能作用于non-Hispanic Whites are officially a minority in California这个句子
lily 说:
49. The cameras of the Voyager II spacecraft detected six small, previously unseen moons circling Uranus, which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting the distant planet
which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting
doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known to orbit
which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known
lily 说:
in orbit around
doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting
which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known that orbit
lily 说:
The pronoun which should be used to refer to a previously mentioned noun, not to the idea expressed in an entire clause. In A, C, and E, which seems to refer to a vague concept involving the detection of moons, but there is no specific noun, such as detection, to which it can refer. Also in E, the use of the phrasing the number... now known that orbit is ungrammatical and unclear. B and D use the
lily 说:
the correct participial form, doubling, to modify the preceding clause, but D, like A, uses known as orbiting rather than known to orbit, a phrase that is more idiomatic in context. B, therefore, is the best answer.
lily 说:
仔细看一下.
likui 说:
这个句子任何一个主句名词，cameras，moons都不能做doubling的逻辑主语；而我说的这道题目，a minority就能做amount的逻辑主语
lily 说:
我觉得OG里解释挺明白的.
likui~找~携隐 说:
而且double这个动词有使动的意思；而amount没有
欧倒
I think Lily's explaination makes sense. 'which' refers to 'California', hence A is not proper.
'amount to' together = verb. You don't against 'verb.+ing', do u?
我觉的逻辑上which应该指代non-Hispanic Whites
但是A仍然是错的，因为用了amounts而不是amount
我觉得，与其说是定语，不如说是状语等符合逻辑上的意思
For the first time in the modern era, non-Hispanic Whites are officially a minority in California, while they amount to a little less than half the population of the state, down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago.
所以才能简化为amounting to........
down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago
占3/4的人口能叫minority吗？
down from nearly three-quarters only a decade ago
占3/4的人口能叫minority吗？
这就叫江河日下呢，所以down成一个minority了那
所以我说是non-Hispanic Whites amount啊
不能是a minortiry 从3/4 down成a monority吧
