以下是引用zhangla在2006-5-20 11:59:00的发言: 我的可是正版的书啊,上面印的就是逗号... it's a typo. 分号才对嘛 不明白什么是N1,N2? 你说的N1是个短语, N2可是个有谓语动词的句子... 如果这个句子对,那么这个我编的句子也对了?
Tom said that last year he had $2000, almost 10% of the family's savings, double the figure for 1980.
我觉着应该是下面这样才平行:
Tom said that last year he had $2000, almost 10% of the family's savings, doubling the figure in 1980.
1. double the figure = the phrase of a noun, "double" in this sentence is not a verb, but a predeterminer. 2. there is no such a choice (F?) as "doubling the figure in 1980", which is grammatically correct , too. however, double the figure for 1980 is better than doubling the figure in 1980. let's take a look the usage of "double": double can be an adjective, a noun, a verb, an adverb and a predeterminer. 有5种词性. in this sentence, "double" is a predeterminer" 3. double : predeterminer twice as big, twice as much, or twice as many
double the amount/number/size etc
We'll need double this amount for eight people. The value of the house is double what it was. 4. your sentence, "Tom said that last year he had $2000, almost 10% of the family's savings, double the figure for 1980.", is correct.
