大全298，搞不清楚意思(已解决)

1.        Five fledgling sea eagles left their nests in western Scotland this summer, bringing to 34 the number of wild birds successfully raised since transplants from Norway began in 1975.

(A) bringing

(B) and brings

(C) and it brings

(D) and it brought
   

(E) and brought

A， 这道题我用排除法选对了正确答案，但是我却不怎么明白句子的结构和意思，谁来帮忙解释一下？

我来试试吧！

前半句不用说了吧？我想你的疑惑应该在后半句“bringing to 34 the number...” 现在分词作状语修饰前面一整句。the number of wild birds successfully raised--同位语结构解释数字34。 

我看了几次，今天才彻底明白了，我写下意思，希望大家指教

Five fledgling sea eagles left their nests in western Scotland this summer, bringing to 34 the number of wild birds successfully raised since transplants from Norway began in 1975.

今年夏天，5只小海鹰离开了它们在西苏格兰的母巢，这使成功繁衍的这种野生鸟数目自1975从挪威引进到今天达到了34只。

现在看来意思还是挺容易理解的，不知当初怎么就是搞不清楚，嘻嘻！

我又有个问题，这个bringing to 34 the number of wild birds，是不是提前了to 34，正常的语序应该是bring the number of wild birds....to 34?

如果是的话，为什么这样？有什么语法要求吗？

Sometimes it depends on the length of the phrase in between.  If it is too 头重脚轻，then you should 前置。

Here, the sentence is correct either way.

谢谢了！
