885题 之 S2-13

weichenli

to felix_zheng A 用伴隨, E改分詞都沒有C來的好, 雖然A文法時間上正如你所說的並沒有什麼大問題, 但一個句子中如果有時間上的表達, 不建議用分詞...OG有幾題但我忘了題號..找到再補給你

在簡潔上A也是不如C,答案是比出來的喔!

weichenli

我回头看了一下，sec 1 -12 根 sec2-13 都讨论了participal在时间上的所用。。。

于是轮到我弥胡了！虽然重申答案是比出来的，但我想搞懂这两题og是啥意思，请大牛帮我看看吧！

还有 to Pierre_chin : 是指 large sums 而非capital， 所以是用复数哦！

12.   Traveling the back roads of Hungary, in 1905 Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology, and they were armed only with an Edison phonograph and insatiable curiosity.

(A) Traveling the back roads of Hungary, in 1905 Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology, and they were armed only

(B) In 1905, Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály, traveling the back roads of Hungary, began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology, and they were only armed

(C) In 1905 Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology, traveling the back roads of Hungary armed only

(D) Having traveled the back roads of Hungary, in 1905 Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology; they were only armed（C）

(E) Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály, in 1905 began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology, traveling the back roads of Hungary, arming themselves only

Choices A and B are wordy and imprecise: the phrasing suggests that Bartók and Kodály were already traveling the back roads of Hungary when they began their pioneering work, not that they traveled the back roads in order to conduct such work. Moreover, and suggests in both cases that they were armed with a phonograph in addition to being on the road, rather than while they were on the road, and only in B is misplaced before the verb armed. Choice C is correct. In choice D, Having traveled… suggests that the two had finished traveling before they began their work in ethnomusicology, and only is again misplaced. Choice E is wordy and awkwardly constructed. The question is a little easier than the average.

13.   Japan received huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, using it to help build a modern industrial system.

(A) Japan received huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, using it to help build

(B) Japan received huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War and used it to help in building

(C) Japan used the huge sums of capital it received from the United States after the Second World War to help build

(D) Japan’s huge sums of capital received from the United States after the Second World War were used to help it in building（C）

(E) Receiving huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, Japan used it to help build

Choice A can be faulted because it, a singular pronoun, does not agree with sums of capital; also, using does not establish a logical time sequence in which Japan first received and then used the capital from the United States. In B, it is again wrong, and to help in building is less compact and idiomatic than to help build. Choice C is best. In E, it is again without a singular noun referent, and Receiving huge sums…Japan used … does not make clear the sequence of events. This question is of middle difficulty.

垂死挣扎的叫help!

我也很晕噢，看了又看，是不是可以这样理解：

12 A. Traveling the back roads of Hungary, in 1905 Béla Bartók and Zoltán Kodály began their pioneering work in ethnomusicology, and they were armed only

OG：the phrasing suggests that Bartók and Kodály were already traveling the back roads of Hungary when they began their pioneering work。由于travel表示持续性动作，而begin是短暂性动作（sorry,不记得语法术语了），那么travel 和begin是不可能同时伴随进行的，即使要表示也只可能是begin发生在travel过程中间一个时点上。所以说already traveling ......

13 E.由于receiving表示和use伴随进行，因此无法明确两个动作的先后顺序。

以上看法不知正确否，欢迎指正。

谢谢你的回答， 12很清楚了， 但我对13提仍有疑惑

根据12的a， Choices A and B are wordy and imprecise: the phrasing suggests that Bartók and Kodály were already traveling the back roads of Hungary when they began their pioneering work ---我的理解是说participial的用法使句子有先travel,再begin的感觉，有时间上前后顺序的差别， 对吗？

然后我就无法了解13 了，因为如果上述没错的话， 13的E 不就有前后顺序了吗？

能再帮帮我吗？谢谢nn!

(E) Receiving huge sums of capital from the United States after the Second World War, Japan used it to help build

如果我对12题分析正确的话，那么13题receiving是短暂性动词，表示伴随持续性动词used发生，那也就是可能发生在used这个过程中的某一时点上。

仅为个人理解，不确定，欢迎讨论

似乎很有道理啊

有没有权威人士给与支持阿？

有收获！！

感觉C的it省略没什么不妥，it在反而有指代capital的同位语的嫌疑。。。。

it不能省略，省掉以后receive成了过去分词表被动语态修饰capital，而动词诸如visit，enter，receive等在gamt中不倾向于使用被动语态；我笔记本上有这条语法，却忘了标明从哪儿看来的。。好像是白勇。

上面有人提到help----help（to）do，其中to可以省略。

这道题最大的问题还是分词做状语修饰主句的“感觉”不对，23楼mm帖的东西很有用，可以帮助理解。

一点拙见。
