12.Rising inventories, “ when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead ”to production cutbacks that would hamper economic growth. (A)when unaccompanied correspondingly by increases in sales, can lead (B)when not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, possibly leads (C)when they were unaccompanied by corresponding sales increases, can lead (D)if not accompanied by correspondingly increased sales, possibly leads (E)if not accompanied by corresponding increases in sales, can lead OG解释说D中的“leads” does not agree with the subject(inventories) 但是曼哈顿语法的第三章后面有个Subject phrases and clause: always singular 然后给了一个例子:Having good friends is a wonderful thing. 既然曼哈顿这里都说了always singular,那为什么OG12中会说主语是inventories,然后谓语要保持和inventories一致呢?好疑惑! -- by 会员 nihongmeng (2012/9/18 21:48:07)
这里的rising不是gerund
it acts a “ving-modifier”(adjective) to modify inventories (inventories 才是复数) |
