OG12-SC-43 指代问题 Laos has a land area about the same as Great Britain but only four million in population, where many are members of hill tribes ensconced in the virtually inaccessible mountain valleys of the north. (A) about the same as Great Britain but only four million in population, where many (B) of about the same size as Great Britain is, but in Laos there is a population of only four million, and many (C) that is about the same size as Great Britain's land area, but in Laos with a population of only four million people, many of them (D) comparable to the size of Great Britain, but only four million in population, and many (E) comparable to that of Great Britain but a population of only four million people, many of whom C选项错误,OG里给的解释是them指代不明。虽然很多NN说除了four million people, them可以指代前面的名词. 可是前面哪里有复数名词呢?them只有可能指代four million people。 盼望牛牛们解答。 -- by 会员 坨坨元 (2011/7/19 20:40:26)
把C选项还原后提炼出来的句子结构是:Laos has a land area (that is***), but in Laos (with***), many of themare***. 这么看的话them就无法指代people了,因为with a population of only four million people变成了伴随成分。 这题我也很模糊呢,不知这样想对不对~ |
