以下是引用ios在2003-12-12 17:30:00的发言：
tightening 修饰Many of America’s political allies

i请问ios GG,为什么tightening 不是近邻修饰它前面的名词the Helms-Burton law of 1996，而是修饰句子主语Many of America’s political allies呢？
我对现在分词的修饰问题不太清楚，请GG指教！

sorry!上面的讲法错了。
现在分词在句首才是修饰主语。
现在分词在句尾是主句的伴随动作，而不是修饰临近的名词。

所以这体用定语从句修饰。

请见OG 39题，现在分词修饰它前面的名词。
请指教！

有个想法，记得关于是用分词还是用WHICH从句，好象是分词强调动作的正在进行的过程，而从句就是强调状态。

此题句尾的现在分词之前有逗号,我所说的是这种情况。
如果没有逗号，而是紧接着名词，那就是修饰名词，如og39 中protecting修饰a method.

39.For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment, （a method to protect） warriors against enemy arrows and spears.
(A) a method to protect
(B) as a method protecting
(C) protecting
(D) as a protection of
(E) to protect
Choice C is best because the participle protecting begins a phrase that explains what the shields did. protecting解释的是主句主语animal-hide shields 的用途，用来修饰主句主语，是否可以这样说？

在这题中tightening the embargo on all Cuban products and, according to opponents of it, violating
两个并列的现在分词修饰在它之前、与它紧邻的句子that the United States repeal the (Helms-Burton law of 1996中的主语the United States，做这个句子的伴随状语。
而根据题意，the Helms-Burton law of 1996造成了后面的情况，应当用which tightens and which violates修饰the Helms-Burton law of 1996，which就近修饰它前面紧邻的名词。
