这是否没有人发现过的问题?就是副词修饰形容词

看OG:




108. Reporting that one of its many problems had been the recent extended sales slump in women's apparel, the seven-store retailer said it would start a three-month liquidation sale in all of its stores.


(A)  its many problems had been the recent


(B)   its many problems has been the recently


(C)  its many problems is the recently


(D)  their many problems is the recent


答案是A,查了字典,这个recent是adj,但是extended也是,修饰形容词的应该是副词才对,怎么这用recent呢?


再看以下的例子


195. Dr. Tonegawa won the Nobel Prize for discovering how the body can constantly change its genes to fashion a seeming unlimited number of antibodies. each specifically targeted at an invading microbe or foreign substance.


(A)  seeming unlimited number of antibodies, each specifically targeted at


(B)  seeming unlimited number of antibodies, each targeted specifically to


(C)  seeming unlimited number of antibodies, all specifically targeted at


(D)  seemingly unlimited number of antibodies, all of them targeted specifically to


(E)   seemingly unlimited number of antibodies, each targeted specifically at



答案是E,seemingly 是副词,修饰形容词unlimited,两个题目不是有一点矛盾么?

108.and the adjective recent correctly modifies the noun phrase extended sales slump. The adverb recently in choices B and C distorts the meaning of the sentence by illogically suggesting that what was recent was only the extension of the slump, and not the slump itself.

按照og解释,recent实际是修饰slump的,而不是extended。

195. recently是修饰unlimited的。

我觉得195 seeming如果修饰的是number翻译过来就是表面上的,貌似真实的数据??


多别扭啊,所以应该是看似无穷的数。。。


题目有矛盾吗?adj+adj+n


              adv+adj+n


              adv+n


大牛?对不对?

【第二題】
根據manhattan所說的兩種phrasing,
(1)使用seeming作為adjective時,修飾的是number。看似number,cannot logically make sense.
(2)使用seemingly作為adverb時,修飾的說unlimited。看似數不盡,logically make sense。

【第一題,有點不太sure。歡迎attack!!】
我覺得modifiers的使用,根本在於要reflect the author's intent.
根據句子意思,由於女裝的sales slump,因而才要liquidation sale的。重點在於sales slump!!
所以,當兩種phrasing(recent/recently)都logically make sense的情況下,優先修飾author's main intention,即sales slump。
所以是recent extended sales slump。
