(1) 可以跟句子,名词(性短语) (2) 这里强调动作 (3) 跳跃修饰,你喜欢的时候都可以. (4)有think of somebody/something as something的用法 Peter had always thought of Kate as someone to be avoided. I want you to think of this as your home.

1.冒号后面跟的成份应看它所有注释的是什么.例如在这里它要解释的是the ultimate goal, 因此可以是一个名词性的结构. 2.这里achieving ...是一个分词结构, 表达起来比名词结构要清楚, 简洁, 而且从上下文意思是倾向于表达一种持续的动作而不是一种静止的状态. 3.跳跃修饰只要不产生歧义是可以的. 一般来说前面是 a of b的结构时, 后置定语修饰中心词a. 而且这里定语从句的谓语动词是单数, 因此很明显是修饰consistency. 4.我认为think of as 是可以的, 但是as 后而应跟名词, 正如refer to as 一样.
Asset allocators create portfolios, often in the form of mutual funds, with the intention to turn in good results in both “bull” and “bear” markets. -->Asset allocators create portfolios, (which is) intented to turn in good results in both “bull” and “bear” markets.
