OG 15-126 有关跳跃修饰

violet468118034

The use of lie detectors is based on the assumption that lying produces emotional reactions in an individual that, in turn, create unconscious physiological responses.

(A) that, in turn, create unconscious physiological  responses
(B) that creates unconscious physiological  responses in turn
(C) creating, in turn, unconscious physiological  responses
(D) to create, in turn, physiological responses that  are unconscious
(E) who creates unconscious physiological  responses in turn


答案是a，这里面的that引导的成分修饰的reactions。从句子的含义上已经差不多明白了，我不明白的就是这种which, that引导的从句做modifiers不是应该就近修饰的么，在Manhattan里不是有一条叫做Touch Rule的么？可是为什么这里中间间隔了一个介词短语in an individual。哪位NN来说一下呗~

in an individual 是借此结构，除了samon的介词结构subject在介词后面，subject都在介词前面，这个是relative clause 的antecedent(subject)所以这里不是跳跃修饰，然后一般sth in some country, where这样的都是不同类的。跳跃修饰指的是长的clause嵌套进句子会很难理解，就把短的verb句子提前，subject +v+relative clause
