關於同位語用法中的the和逗號(如B選項中的TM, the jazz pianist and composer)--摘自Manhattan:
- if you preface someone's name with a noun describing their occupation (or other word describing what that person does), WITHOUT AN ARTICLE, OR WITH THE DEFINITE ARTICLE "THE", you DO NOT use a comma. 如果把職位、稱號放在人名前面,如果沒有冠詞,或者有定冠詞,就不用逗號(本題的情況)。
example:
Jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk ... --> correct
注意:
1) if you are using "THE (description) (name)" to introduce someone for the first time, then you DON'T use a comma.但有要注意:當職位、稱號前是定冠詞時,如果是第一次提到某人,是不必用逗號的
example:
The author Ernest Hemingway was known for his drunken and violent escapades.
--> here we are introducing hemingway, so we don't use a comma.
2) if you have already introduced two or more people, but you are using "THE (description) to single out one of them, then you DO use a comma.
example:
Among her friends were an author and a painter; the author, Ernest Hemingway, went on to become an icon of American literature.
--> we've already introduced "the author"; this time we use a comma to single him out.
- if there's an indefinite article (a/an), you DO use a comma. 如果前面有不定冠詞,就要用逗號。
example
A jazz pianist and composer, Thelonious Monk ... --> correct
- if it's an adjective, you DO use a comma.如果前面不是職位、稱號,而是一個形容詞,那就要用逗號。
example:
Creative and original, Thelonious Monk ... --> correct |
