在前辈的帖子中有这么一个总结:
在前有“核心词+介词、分词等修饰结构”或者插入语的情况下,which跳跃修饰前面的核心词,不能修饰紧邻的名词。

og13最开始的诊断练习里面

Unlike the buildings in Mesopotamian cities, which were arranged haphazardly, the same basic plan was followed for all cities of the Indus Valley: with houses laid out on a north-south, east-west grid, and houses and walls were built of standard-size bricks.

  • Athe buildings in Mesopotamian cities, which were arranged haphazardly, the same basic plan was followed for all cities of the Indus Valley: with houses  分析A选项
  • Bthe buildings in Mesopotamian cities, which were haphazard in arrangement, the same basic plan was used in all cities of the Indus Valley: houses were  分析B选项
  • Cthe arrangement of buildings in Mesopotamian cities, which were haphazard, the cities of the Indus Valley all followed the same basic plan: houses  分析C选项
  • DMesopotamian cities, in which buildings were arranged haphazardly, the cities of the Indus Valley all followed the same basic plan: houses were  分析D选项
  • EMesopotamian cities, which had buildings that were arranged haphazardly, the same basic plan was used for all cities in the Indus Valley: houses that were  分析E选项
  • 在OG的解析种说A选项的which were arranged 指代不清,不清楚是指代buildings 还是 cities.
  • 我的疑惑是根据跳跃指代的法则,which were arranged 这个不是应该直接修饰buildings的么,为什么会有机会修饰cities呢,毕竟in M cities这是个介词短语啊?
  • 求NN们解答!

贴上一段Ron大神的解释:
I can see what you're saying here, but nouns that are modified by prepositional phrases can still be the referent of 'which' even if they are a few words distant from it.
This usually happens when the immediately preceding noun is grammatically incompatible with the verb after "which".

For example: "The picture of my brothers, which was taken last year in Mexico, is one of my favorites."

You might object to this sentence on the grounds that 'which' might be taken to modify 'brothers'. And, in a strict sort of way, you'd be right. But here's the catch: There's really no other reasonable way to write this sentence. You just can't get 'picture' next to the 'which' clause without creating total nonsense, or splitting the sentence into 2 smaller sentence-ettes.
plus, 'brothers' is plural, and is incompatible with 'which WAS'.

This is an interesting point, though, and subtle at that. I believe that we are working on getting it into our forthcoming strategy guide.

which首先遵循touch原则吧,cities是实意名词,可以用which指代。不过我觉得指代cities的话应该用where或者in which,希望懂得人点评一下。

The picture of my brothers, which was taken last year in Mexico, is one of my favorites.中brothers是人,不能用which指代,所以跳跃指代picture.
