再问OG6

        In virtually all types of tissue in every animal species, dioxin induces the production of enzymes that are the organism’s trying to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical that is irritating it.


(A) trying to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical that is irritating it


(B) trying that it metabolize, or render harmless, the. chemical irritant


(C) attempt to try to metabolize, or render harmless, such a chemical irritant


(D) attempt to try and metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical irritating it(E)


(E) attempt to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical irritant


Although an “-ing” verb such as trying can sometimes be used as a noun, the phrase the organism’s trying to metabolize in A is unidiomatic because trying is used as the object of organism’s. In B, trying that it metabolize is ungrammatical. The noun attempt could follow organism’s; also, it would parallel the noun enzymes, and parallelism is needed here because the sentence uses the linking verb are to equate enzymes and attempt. In C and D, however, attempt to try is redundant. Choice E, which says attempt to metabolize, is best. The phrase the chemical irritant is also the most concise and precise conclusion for the sentence because it clearly refers to the dioxin mentioned earlier.



尽管前面已经有很多解释了,但对E选项中In virtually all types of tissue in every animal species, dioxin induces the production of enzymes that are the organism’s attempt to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical irritant 的关系不是很理解


1)主句是dioxin induces the production?


2)that are the organism's attempt to metabolize, or render harmless是定语从句修饰enzymes,其中metabolize和render用or并列(但总感觉harmless后面似乎没有说完??)


3)the chemical irritant作enzymes的同位语?


4)还有一种看法是render后有双宾,即render the chemical irritant harmless,而the chemical irritant指代前面的enzymes?



这样解释对吗?请牛牛帮确认一下

attempt to metabolize the chemical irritant, namely, render harmless  the chemical irritant.

To be discussed......

是dioxin induces 所以irritant应该指的是dioxin把(个人意见

另外问一个没有人问的问题;

在(B)选项里说rganism's trying that it metabolize...is ungrammatical的,

是错在定语从句不可修饰-ING名词, 还是try不可以接that从句呢?

错在书面语不用 xxxx'trying 说unidiomatic因为这么写有歧义,可以理解成尝试作,还可以理解成尽量做。 另外分词的所有格会让人质疑动作的发起者,可是xxx's 修饰trying,所以不是独立的结构,不能作为动作发起者。 这是俺的理解,请指教

应该是因为没有

try that+从句  的用法。

有反例请举出。

OG-12给的解释为:the -ing form of a verb can be used as a noun (e.g: running is her favorite sport), but it is often awkward, particularly when used with a possessive, as in this case.

我的理解为sth's  sth.  这个sth.应该用名词,而不是动名词。

try that +从句的结构也是错误的,应该为try to do sth.
