3。关于上面第2题,看来1stzhang 与lyricling意见一致, 1stzhang:关键动词是armed ,arm这个动作的发出不是they而是traveling the back roads of Hungary 这件事情 lyricling:我认为armed不是与traveling并列修饰began, 因为如果如此,armed前应该有and 连接。Armed修饰的是traveling这个分词词组,动作的发生者当然都是人,但分词作状语,修饰的应该是动作。意思是他们在旅行时武装着留声机和好奇心。(比喻)
本题我认为是在考动词的逻辑关系。并列关系和伴随关系在逻辑含义上是有区别的,两个动词并列表明两个动作同等重要,没有主次之分,按照OG的解释,这两个动作是separate and independent的;而伴随关系则表明两个动作有主次之分,并且同时发生,次动作修饰主动作。
看下面这个例题 OG71. The original building and loan associations were organized as limited life funds, whose members made monthly payments on their share (subscriptions, then taking turns drawing) on the funds for home mortgages. (A) subscriptions, then taking turns drawing (B) subscriptions and then took turns drawing
71. The original building and loan associations were organized as limited life funds, whose members made monthly payments on their share subscriptions, then taking turns drawing on the funds for home mortgages.
(a)subscriptions, then taking turns drawing (b)subscriptions, and then taking turns drawing (c)subscriptions and then took turns drawing (d)subscriptions and then took turns, they drew (e)subscriptions and then drew, taking turns
其实,这个题目就考了一个并列,没有什么逻辑意思成分。and then 在英语中就是“, then”,大家可以体会一下。这一点理解了,那就只有C在满足平行结构的请情况下是没有错误的。答案就是它。
