关于嵌入式关系分句—by tankobe:
OG12-118. The world wildlife fund has declared that global warming, a phenomenon most scientsts agree to be caused by human begings in burning fossil fuels, will create havoc among migratory birds by altering the enviroment in ways harmful to their habitats.
a) A phenomenon most scientists agree to be caused by human beings in burning fossil fuels,
b) a phenomenon most scientists agree that is caused by fossil fuels burned by human beings,
c) a phenomenon that most scientists agree is caused by human beings' burning of fossil fuels
d) which most scientists agree on as phenomenon caused by human beings who burn fossil fuels,
e) which most scientsts agree to be a phenomenon caused by fossil fuels burned by human beings
查了很多贴(国内和国外),对 C 选项的解释都是半斤八两,看得我一头雾水!(为什么一个定语从 句里有两个动词 agree 和 is)
一个普遍的误读是:说 most scientists agree 是插入语,虽然是没加逗号!(此解释绝对是误人子弟!!!)
今天我翻遍章振邦的《新编英语语法》(CD 上有下载),在 1193—1395 页赫然发现一个语法词条—— 嵌入式关系分句,详解如下:
“有一种关系分句(即定语从句),它既是先行项的后置修饰语(即定语),同时又是另外一个分句结 构的宾语(即宾语从句)”此分句结构就被嵌入在定语从句中,即嵌入式关系分句。
该书举例:In his breast-pocket he had a patch of scarlet, which i suppose was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief.
注意两点:
1)从句 which was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief 首先是 patch of scarlet 的定语从句。 2)从句 which(patch of scarlet) was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief 也是 i suppose 的宾语从 句,即 I suppose (that)the patch of scarlet was the paper cap serving as a handkerchief 。 综上所述,当一个定语从句同时是另一个主谓结构的宾语从句是,就可以写为嵌入式关系分句
个人认为 这道题最优的解题办法是这个现象是由人类燃烧木头引起而不是人类引起 不必纠结其他 |
