Except for a concert performance that the composer himself staged in 1911, Scott Joplin’s ragtime opera Treemonisha was not produced until 1972, sixty-one years after its completion. (A) Except for a concert performance that the composer himself staged (B) Except for a concert performance with the composer himself staging it (C) Besides a concert performance being staged by the composer himself (D) Excepting a concert performance that the composer himself staged (E) With the exception of a concert performance with the staging done by the composer himself
如果改成:with the composer himself staging another one. 是否也说得通呢?我的意思是,with后面没有it的话,staging的宾语是?我刚才查了下,stage可以做vt.和vi. 如果stage做vi理解,那么composer himself未必非要演奏自己的作品,因为他是在伴随,而himself只是强调在演奏的是他的作品。但是,stage做vt的时候,it就不是unnecessary,并且意思就准确无二了--这样理解是不是过于牵强了?with能搞死人啊。。。

嗯,我很同意你说的stage和performance之间是动宾关系,因为原句是定语从句。 我的理解是B选项改成with之后,动宾关系丢失,变成了伴随关系,含义上改变了。 至于it是否充分,我保留意见。。。不是很确定,因为既然是名词修饰语这个with就要attach到这个名词上,而with结构内又是动宾关系,Except for a concert performance with the composer himself staging performance.让人感觉逻辑结构非常不清晰。
