天山-7-28

Semmy

28. Many of the earliest known images of Hindu deities in India date from the time of the Kushan empire, fashioned either from the pottered sandstone of Mathura or Gandharan grey schist.

B, empire, fashioned from  either the pottered sandstone of Mathura or from
E, empire and were fashioned either from the pottered sandstone of Mathura or from

想问问关于过去分词独立结构的修饰对象,偶记得放段首的时候是修饰主句逻辑主语的.

记得现代分词不论放句首还是句末都是修饰主句逻辑主语的,

为啥到了过去分词放在句末,就不是修饰主句逻辑主语了呢?即为啥B错了呢?

谢谢

B.  fashioned 的逻辑主语（修饰对象）有歧义, 到底是修饰 empire 呢，还是说 images 呢？

很奇怪，这里date是现在时，而且主动；fashion是过去时，而且被动

littlewoman

刚才没有说清楚。

我觉得date from应该用被动,大家的看法呢

clelia

古物的确定年代可以用主动 refer to OG183

Archaeologists in Ireland believe that a recently discovered chalice, which dates from the eighth century, was probably buried to keep from being stolen by invaders.
a. to keep from
b. to keep it from
c. to avoid
d. in order that it would avoid
e in order to keep from

答案B

wangrui523

either A or B

只有E选项,A和B是完全对称的

fengyun158

从对称上来说，E是完美的。至于时态，我看到是过去式就没选，看来太轻率。因为date是便是现在，而fashion是在过去。A，B的话，either...or不对称。

ABC的either or 结构都不对称```D的结构不完整,相比之下还是E好点

jonath

according OG's interpretation:

this sentence introduces the constructer either X or Y.

X and Y must be grammatically parallel.

B is wrong coz:"from either" is not paralle with "or from"
