以下是引用wyy2010在2009-2-13 14:29:00的发言：

191.The loan company announced it would soon lend money to borrowers with proven records of their not paying back their loans on time, collectively known as the subprime lending market.

A. of their not paying back their loans on time,

B. of not paying back their loans on time, a group

C. of not paying back their loans on time, with such a group

D. that they do not pay back their loans on time,

E. that they do not pay back their loans on time, such a group

B - 同位语： borrowers = a group; 习惯用法： records of doing sth.

A. of their not paying ... not idomatic; collectively ... refers to borrowers? loans? unclear

B. OK, their clearly referes to borrowers'

C. with such as group modifies anounced? - confusing

D/E. the restrictive that clause is ungrammatically constructed to modify records.

以下是引用wyy2010在2009-2-13 14:27:00的发言：

In 1988, the Council on Economic Priorities began publishing Shopping for a Better World, with the simple thesis of consumers having the power to change companies by the simple expedient of refusing to buy.

A. with the simple thesis of consumers having

B. which had the simple thesis of consumers having

C. where the thesis was simple: consumers having

D. with a thesis that is a simple one: consumers have

E. whose thesis was simple: consumers have

好象哪里已经讨论过，with结构就修饰began publishing这个谓语了，而只有那个出版物才有thesis，所以后面的成分的意图是修饰出版物。又因为有逗号在画线成分之前，就只好用个非限定性定语从句了 -- 排除ACD

相比BE，E更简洁，B或许可以改为 which had the simple thesis that consumers have

192.

句子结构：

the Council on Economic Priorities began…whose thesis was…: consumers have….

A.
having 做定语修饰前面的n--consumer，所以句子结构就成了thesis of consumers，consumer不是thesis；
with改变了原句的意思，使得with从句修饰谓语动词began，造成逻辑意思错误。

B. which无指代。having 做定语修饰前面的n--consumer，所以句子结构就成了thesis of consumers，consumer不是thesis；

C. where无指代。：后应为完整句子结构，这里缺谓语。

D. thesis that is a simple one，wordy。with改变了原句的意思，使得with从句修饰谓语动词began，造成逻辑意思错误。

E. 正确。
Whose即可修饰有生命物，也可修饰无生命物。Shopping for a Better World
就是一本书或年鉴之类的东西。句子的意思在说，这本书有个简单的理论。。。 thesis was simple，表达concise. :后完整主谓结构正确。

Background

The first edition of "Shopping for a Better World" was first published in 1988 and that edition is now a collector's item. New editions were published every year until 2000, selling more than a million copies.

With结构：

with结构到底能不能解释为“有”的含义，

American with a population of.....是解释为有

A book with a title能不能理解为“有”

这时，with的含义就是“有”，
介宾短语做形容词修饰前面的名词。很多时候都能用"being/having"来代.

A book，with a title，。。。。有逗号时，不能理解为“有”。这里表示伴随优先伴随主句

想请问下 whose是确定可以指代物么? 朗文里面说的是；used to ask which person or people a particular thing belongs to/ used to show the relationship between a person or thing and something that belongs to that person or thing.
