Quasars, at billions of light-years from Earth the most distant observable objects in the universe, believed to be the cores of galaxies in an early stage of development.
45. Quasars, at billions of light-years from Earth the most distant observable objects in the universe, believed to be the cores of galaxies in an early stage of development. (A) believed to be (B) are believed to be (C) some believe them to be (D) some believe they are (E) it is believed that they are 官方对C的解释是The clause some believe them to be does not supply a verb to accompany quasars as the subject of the sentence, and the clause supplies an object them so that quasars cannot be the object, making the sentence ungrammatical. 这是不是意味着如果把C选项中的them去掉就会变成没有语法错误的选项了呢? 我的rationale是如果没有them,那么去掉插入语以后的句子就只有一个宾语(some成为主语),虽然这样改变了句意,但并没有语法错误。 不知道我的看法有没有问题,请同学们帮我看看
在电影hangover 2中有一段对白: Doug:Alan considers u to be his best friend Stu: I consider Alan to be insane 虽然我不感肯定,但我觉得,believe...to be应该没有问题吧....例如 believe yourself to be beautiful
我的理解是这样的,既然Quasars已经是宾语成分那么不一定要在believe to be之间,例如OG12中的一个句子:In 1713, Alexander Pope began his translation of the Iliad, a work that took him seven years to complete and that literary critic Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary, pronounced the greatest translation in any language. 在这个句子中pronounced后面没有加it是因为前面的that已经代表了这个成分
