以下是引用gemj在2003-12-1 15:36:00的发言: C中蓝色部分应该作为一个整体来理解,WHICH的先行词就是“过程”。 (C) by which it is produced and understood has revealed not underlying simplicity but great complexity 如果单独理解understood,那它跟谁搭配呢?
以下是引用Energy在2004-1-29 17:11:00的发言: 为什么不选D主语REASEARCH AND PROCESS 应该是复数啊?
Research during the past several decades on (the nature of language) and (the processes that produce and make it understandable) has revealed great complexity instead of underlying simplicity.
C中蓝色部分应该作为一个整体来理解,WHICH的先行词就是“过程”。 (C) by which it is produced and understood has revealed not underlying simplicity but great complexity 如果单独理解understood,那它跟谁搭配呢?
再次商榷:
我觉得by不一定要理解成“被”,而是可以理解成“通过(某种手段或过程)”。
所以,我gemj大侠原来的理解是说的通的:通过一个过程,语言被创造出来并被理解。
对于A选项,我实在没法接受:produce and make it understandable的用法。
