17. with修饰
其一,直接跟在名词后面修饰,不加标点,简单。
其二,comma + with形式,通常是修饰主句的主语,例如:
Visitors to the park have often looked up into the leafy canopy and seen monkeys sleeping on the branches, with arms and legs hanging like socks on a clothesline.
OG13-7 The intricate structure of the compound insect eye, with its hundreds of miniature eyes called ommatidia, helps explain why scientists have assumed that it evolved independently of the vertebrate eye.
此两例中,with都是引导独立主格,都是修饰主句主语。如果试图修饰宾语(有时甚至是紧跟着宾语),则会引起歧义。例如
OG13-90 The results of the company's cost-cutting measures are evident in its profits, with a 5 percent increase during the first 3 months of this year after having fallen over the last two years. (错误)
with不能引导完整句子
更新:
OG13-page745: To present these two causes, the sentence employs a formula that requires parallel elements: not just because of x, but because of y, with x and y assuming the same grammatical form. (似乎与上述结论相悖)

云游:有做定语和状语的两种情况。其一,紧跟名词作为介宾短语,相当于形容词作定语修饰名词;其二,【,with】独立主格,同样类似于【,V-ing】做状语,可以表示原因,结果,伴随和修饰之前的动词。
但是对于【,with】能否做定语修饰名词,我也没看到明确的论断。但个人看法,with结构如果要做定语修饰名词只有两种情况:其一,不加逗号直接跟在名词之后;其二,【,with】跟在主语之是可能做定语修饰主句主语的,如果跟在宾语之后,我觉得修饰的歧义会很大!
更新:
OG13-114: Starfish, with anywhere from five to eight arms, have a strong regeneration ability, and if one arm is lost it is quickly replaced, with the animal sometimes overcompensating and growing an extra one or two.
with的两种用法的完美体现

PREP2008-2-162: Orb-weaving spiders ...build webs that are essentially wheel-like, with an outer rim and a number of spokes emanating from the hub.
似乎是个例外
PREP2008-2-175: With the cost of wireless service plummeting in the last year and mobile phones becoming increasingly common, many people are now suing their mobiles phones to make calls across a wide region at night and on weekends, when numerous wireless companies provide unlimited airtime for a relatively small monthly fee.
PREP2008-2-191: For the last five years the Dutch economy has grown faster than the economy of Britain, France, and Germany, with the unemployment rate that has remained well below that of other three countries. (错误) |
