OG205關於Although一聽就懂解釋.

openmind

205. The peaks of a mountain range, acting like rocks in a streambed, produce ripples in the air flowing
over them; the resulting flow pattern, with crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air
that forms them is moving rapidly, are known as “standing waves.”

(A) crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are
(B) crests and troughs that remain stationary although they are formed by rapidly moving air, are
(C) crests and troughs that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, is
(D) stationary crests and troughs although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are（C）
(E) stationary crests and troughs although they are formed by rapidly moving air, is

首先, 文法中, Although所引導的Adv-CL是用來修飾Main-CL的,所以我們會看到Although+S+V, S+V.的結構.

ANS(D)及(E)中although的位置使得Adv-CL修飾Main-CL: the resulting flow pattern is known as "standing waves".(不能修飾分號前的句子,因為分號前後句意上比較沒有關聯).

然後如果把Adv-CL搬到Main-CL的前面,變成以下:

Although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, the resulting flow pattern, with stationary crests and troughs, is known as "standing waves". 雖然Adv-CL跟Main-CL主詞不一定要一樣,但這樣句子會不會唸起來很怪呢? them是指誰? 是the resulting flow pattern還是crests and troughs,因此則造成句意awkward

所以ANS(C)用了that remain stationary讓although引導的Adv-CL有明確的修飾對象!

恩~ 我還是不太懂(C)(E)的區別在哪裡，之前有NN說，因為(E)中，在with短語內加了although從句。不過(C)也是一樣阿。有的NN是說因為(E)結構沒有S+V，不過根據這一帖的發帖NN上述，不就代表(E)也是有Although S+V, S+V的結構，只是念起來很怪，無法找到them的指代對象。同樣的，(C)也是一樣有them啊，難道不會有這個問題嗎? 看了好久頭都暈了還是不懂，懇請NN賜教~~

哈!我是發帖的,不過我不是NN,這題我想了一下有更好的解釋,跟OG的講法相近.

是這樣的,although they are formed by rapidly moving是一個副詞子句.

ANS(E)中: although這個句子前面是with stationary crests and troughs 這個片語.我是覺得用副詞子句修飾片語很怪.

ANC(C)中: 有形容詞子句that remain stationary給副詞子句although they are formed by rapidly moving修飾.

所以選了(C)

不過考試沒那麼多時間想,我提供另一個經驗給妳參考.

我做題的時候發現,如果最後需要在 with+adj+N 與 with+N+that remain+adj/過去分詞 這兩者之間作比較,

則通常 with+N+that remain+adj/過去分詞 是優選項.因為這種說法語氣較強.

但是若是N+關代+be動詞+adj 則是不好的選項,比如大全416

大全416-ANS(C):the parts of the plant which were most nutritious 就是不好的選項. 正確答案(D)中的the most nutritious parts of the plant就很好.

這種例子大全或OG裡都很多.

希望對妳有幫助,SC很多是經驗法則,多做題目,累積自己的經驗才是王道.^_^

非常感謝您這麼快回覆我的疑問~~ 您太謙虛了，您肯定是NN~~ 再次感謝~~ 已經清楚多了，我會在好好體會一下~~ 謝謝您~

有比较清楚！

我看到有的nn说，although的前后都要是完整的句子

不知道这种说法有没有依据，请指教。
