Construction of the Roman Colosseum, which was
offi cially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in
A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, was completed
a decade later, during the reign of Titus, who opened
the Colosseum with a one-hundred-day cycle of
religious pageants, gladiatorial games, and
spectacles.
(A) which was offi cially known as the Flavian
Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign
of Vespasian,
(B) offi cially known as the Flavian Amphitheater,
begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian,
and
(C) which was offi cially known as the Flavian
Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign
of Vespasian, and

这道题正确答案为C。OG给出的B选项错误的理由是begun时态错误。我想问问类似的题目表达，就是在一个核心词后面接从句或者修饰短语，C选项如果去掉which was，直接用construction，officially known as sth. ,began……这种结构对不对啊~还是说限定从句一定要加which was？

construction, officially known as sth., began
结构是对的，但是去掉which was会让句子不够清晰，所以加上更好些。

斑竹，可以具体说下为什么句子不清晰么？去掉which was 之后分词known是不是有修饰construction的嫌疑呀？

同求啊~~~强顶啊！！！

首先我觉得这里的which was应该是修饰Roman Colosseum的。
我觉得这里是不是因为省略which was之后会使得known as像是修饰主语construction的是不是呀？？？
求证啊！！！！

which和past past participle在这里的修饰是一样的。不存在这种歧义

我想版主的意思应该是说去掉了which was可能会让读者认为known和begun都是作为修饰成分，hard to process

谢谢Dukb同学肿是介么热心~~~~~~~
想了一下你写得”known和begun都是作为修饰成分“，我觉得挺有道理的！LZ没把题目粘全，我还是先粘一下完整题目~~
Construction of the Roman Colosseum, which was officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, was completed a decade later, during the reign of Titus, who opened the Colosseum with a one-hundred-day cycle of religious pageants, gladiatorial games, and spectacles.（C）
(A) which was offi cially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian,
(B) officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
(C) which was offi cially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, began in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
(D) officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater and begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian it
(E) officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater, which was begun in A.D. 69, during the reign of Vespasian, and
Dukb你说的在B/D/E里面确实存在着这种情况。

但是我觉得这里版主所指which was的unclear应该是指定语从句时which was很清晰是指代Roman Colosseum的，但是变成了known as的话，实际上就是有指代整个主语，就是是指代construction的嫌疑了呀！

呼唤版主大人，也求大家讨论啊！！！！

这样的理解你就太过钻牛角尖了

SC不单单考的是语法，也考的是meaning

when you deal with modifier issue，you should use the common sense to determine the noun/action being modified

当你有两个都符合逻辑的antecedent，这时才是ambiguous

A dog on the table，which is very cute，is very expensive（这里的which有指代table的歧义么？）

the same applies to your posted question
