1.c有歧义，变成he was donimated by,其实是people 和he比,而且people 的位置也有问题。
2.我也不知道,我和你選的一樣,有誰可以解答嗎?

应该是many of whom再看下面的例子：

(D) In the United States a significant proportion of the commercial honey supply comes from hobby beekeepers, many of whom are likely to abandon beekeeping with the influx of Africanized bees.

(D) Voters in the city, many of whom benefit from the low transit fares, are strongly opposed to increasing local taxes.

Saint-Simon’s followers, many of whom were women, based their feminism on an interpretation of his project to reorganize the globe by replacing brute force with the rule of spiritual powers.

(E) The composition of this elite included vice-chancellors, many of whom held office because of their wealth.

a. the proper structure should be "than he" or "than he was"
b/c. there is no indication of the past perfect tense here in this sentence, also in C, the adjectives "wealthier, better-educated, more polished" refer to a group of people, you could understand the usage by adding a "the" in front of each word
d. loss of comparative structure

还是有疑问,第一题的than之后,为什么不可以用him?不都是by的宾语吗?
第二题还是不明白,为什么不可以用many of whom,而且many of them这句话没有谓语了呀

dandan74 · 发表于 2003-11-7 13:59:00

15：我认为many of whom 也可以，看surronds不行，所以排除B.
E中的many of them xxx是一个独立主格结构，不需要谓语
11：可以用than he, 但是than he was不行，因为这里是比较介词by的宾语，所以than后面不能出现主谓结构。

第二题，b选项（many of whom）的谓语动词不对，a 选项many of them...是独立主格只是带姐词的一种

第一题我也不太清楚，请牛牛们在讲一讲

(C) who had been thrust into a world dominated by wealthier, better-educated, and people more polished than he was

1st, concise :
…man who had been thrust into = man trust into

2nd parallelism
…by wealthier, better-educated, and people more polished than he was..
= wealthier, better-educated, and people <-wrong
should be ‘wealthier, better-educated, and more polished”

the intended meaning : many workers come, among these workers, a large portion come just for the season.

“many of who are” limitedly modifies the “worker”, slightly distorting the meaning: only those workers who stay in just for the season come to the valley

my own opinion, not creditable

i am confused even more, how can u know 'which' modifies 'fields' instead of 'patchwork' since it refers to the first one in several other questions?
