Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in 'almost any substance without destroying it, is finding uses in medicine, archaeology, and criminology.
(A) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,
(B) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, having the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission
(C) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,
(D) A technique originally developed for detecting air pollutants, called proton-induced X-ray emission, which has the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance quickly and without destroying it,
(E) A technique that was originally developed for detecting air pollutants and has the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance quickly and without destroying the substance, called proton-induced X-ray emission,
Rhetorical construction
答案选A。我觉得选D。OG里面提到D选项的which用得不对,我就觉得A、C、D三个选项因为这个which都不对,因为不能确定WHICH修饰之前的emission还是a technique,应该是a technique。另外,按照白勇的说法,B也不对,因为“having the ability to analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it”既可以向前修饰也可以向后修饰。那我只能选E了。我分析的结果就是跟答案不一样阿,还请大家指点。
另外OG11黄皮书-102题,也是类似的句子,我看不懂OG怎么在解释。但到是觉得白勇解释得蛮有道理的。
Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, capitalized on her keen observation and love of the natural world.
(A) Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives,
(B) In her book illustrations, carefully coordinating them with her narratives, Beatrix Potter
(C) In her book illustrations, which she carefully coordinated with her narratives, Beatrix Potter
(D) Carefully coordinated with her narratives, Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations
(E) Beatrix Potter, in her book illustrations, carefully coordinated them with her narratives and
答案选C,白说A、B都错在“carefully coordinating them with her narratives”修饰对象不唯一,可以向前也可以向后;D错在没说对**coordinate with**;E错在把原本的修饰关系变成了平行。不过按照本题E的错误理由,那么105题D肯定也错了:(
