急！马上要考试了，还不知道which的用法！贴上几个which的例句，麻烦牛牛们帮忙看看

amacd

which usually refers to a noun, not a whole sentence,

sometimes, there is a "," in front of, and avoid to use "which" is to avoid refering to the noun in front of it. "which" refers to mood swings

In his research paper, Dr. Frosh, medical director of the Payne Whitney Clinic, distinguishes mood swings, which may be violent without their being grounded in mental disease, from genuine manic-depressive psychosis.

(C) between mood swings, which may be violent without being grounded in mental disease, and genuine manic-depressive psychosis

"which" refers to mood swings The answer is B

OG 49, The cameras of the Voyager II spacecraft detected six small, previously unseen moons circling Uranus, which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting the distant planet.

(A) which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting

(B) doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known to orbit

The answer is B -- because which can mistakenly modify "Uranus"

I didnt use the GWD examples you provided because i haven't started those sections yet. Hope these two examples can help you ~

我来试着给你解释一下，大家一起探讨：

对GWD-12-Q31,which 用来说明Emily Dickson’s letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson，它指带的其实是LETTER

同样第二个句子我是这么理解的：

The systermatic clearing of forests in the united states not only create farmland,是farmland gave consumers relatively inexpensive houses and furniture.

Which 在这里是用作非限制性定语从句

第三题：为什么要用which呢？the largest share for any country to contribute since 1980，已经是一个很好的插入语去说明情况

欢迎讨论

同意楼上2 3题的解释

但第一题为什么which是指代letters呢？不是which一定是就近指代的么？

sumel

终于明白which的指代了！

楼主认真看看下面这个帖子，我想会有帮助的。

祝考试顺利  ^_^

在图书馆学习一天回到家，发现有这么多热心的解释，真是happy。我看了12楼的解释，理解了。就是对第一题还是有所不解，不过ETS的语法好像是特别活，没有特别统一的规则。不好意思，再贴一题，是今天做GWD24时遇到的，第8题

The results of the company’s cost-cutting measures are evident in its profits, which increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it fell over the last two years.

(A) which increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it fell

(B) which had increased five percent during the first three months of this year after it had fallen

(C) which have increased five percent during the first three months of this year after falling

(D) with a five percent increase during the first three months of this year after falling

(E) with a five percent increase during the first three months of this year after having fallen

答案是C，我觉得D 也没有什么不对吖？这个which和with短语我老是分不清，麻烦牛牛帮忙解释一下区别。

BTW，楼上gg提供的链接我一定仔细研读，不过巨长的帖子噢

很高兴能够帮到你。对第一题我再解释一下，

Emily Dickinson’s letters to Susan Huntington Dickinson, whichwere written over a period beginning a few years before Susan’s marriage to Emily’s brother and ending shortly before Emily’s death in 1886, outnumbers her letters to anyone else.

Emily Dickinson 写给SHD的信比她写给任何人的信都多。这些信是在....一段时间内写的.which修饰的是letter.

对于你新提的问题，我觉得which 修饰的是profile,然后它最后用的是over the last two years,所以在which 里面应该用have increased......用with的话就是一个介词短语，介词短语的修饰作用和which是不一样的。具体的你可以用cd的搜索功能搜索一下。

搜索出来了别忘了大家一起分享呀

Solaris

风过疏竹：谢谢你的解释，很清晰。我搜索到了with的用法，你看看。我觉得这个贴很详细，把with和which的用法http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&ID=69866&replyID=&skin=0

这个帖子是针对with在og中的用法总结，还挺全的。http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?BoardID=23&ID=80567&replyID=&skin=0 希望对你有帮助。

btw，你是在北美吗？看你的时间都是凌晨噢

风过疏竹

对呀。我在北美。你呢？

小弟不才,沒時間看完全部帖子,只能針對一小小部分回答 ..

關係子句跟介詞短語最大的差別就是 後者可以當副詞使用修飾前面的動詞

(介詞片語一人可分飾兩角;adj or adv )

很多選項看起來都一樣的時候,小心with介片它是不是在這句子裡頭修飾別的東西

而不是只有修飾前方的名詞 ...
