曼哈顿里面有一个句子
The country's economy is unstable, the result of a stock market crash occurring
ten years ago. 错的 (这里也是表解释说明的一般性状态或属性 但是因为 ten years ago所以是错的)
The country's economy is unstable, the result of a stock market crash that
occurred ten years ago. 对的
Xiaoming is a good student, studying very hard ten years ago 这样的话 是不是就是错的呀 (感觉自己编有点奇怪的句子,Xiaoming was a good student, studying very hard ten years ago 这样感觉对一点)
下面是曼哈顿的解释 In the first sentence, the word occurring seems to indicate that the crash is happening now, since the main verb is in present tense-but the sentence clearly states that the crash occurred ten years ago. This sentence is incorrect. The second sentence correctly changes the modifier form to indicate that the crash occurred in the past.
