29 .Emily Dickinson’s letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and Ending shortly before Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumbering her letters to anyone else.
(A) Dickinson were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emilys brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumbering
(E) Dickinson, which were written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumber
其他选项没有困扰到我就没有打。我的问题是,E的 “Dickinson, which were...” 这个which难道不应该遵循曼哈顿语法上面的touching rule吗?
Manhattan 5th P84: A NOUN and its MODIFIER should TOUCH each other. if the modifier is nesst to a different noun, we have a misplaced modifier.
还有个例子,我感觉和本题非常像!wrong: Jim biked along an old dirt road to get to his house, which cut through the woods.
In the preceding example, the modifying phrase which cut through the woods is meant to describe the road, not the house. thus you should move the modifier next to road.
好吧,我觉得非常明白了 原句中E选项 which 从句修饰 Susan Huntington Dickinson,所以直接排除。答案的解释是outnumber是main verb,which从句算是插入语,选E意思更完整。但是如果连toughing rule也不是完全可信赖的话,那还怎么做题啊?!我基本上一向是拿这个来排除错误选项的,而且OG很多题目的答案也就是touching rule的问题啊。这样一来,那些被推翻的选项不是可以翻身的吗?
小女子遇到瓶颈了,还请各位大侠不吝赐教,不胜感激!
