我的问题是对OG的解释中说:since their could refer to either tourists or rhinoceroses, it is inappropriately ambiguous whose horns are being trimmed.按照就近原则,their显然指的是rhinoceroses,而不是tourists,从意思上那么理解更是荒唐,这有什么ambiguous的呢?各位如何理解?
我来问一个有关本题OG解释的问题,OG的解释中说道:When only two alternatives are possible,to continue to visit or not not to continue to visit ,whether(or whether or not)is properly used rather than if. 看来OG对whether or not的用法并不排斥阿,它是否和whether具有同等优选的地位呢? 当它和whether同时出现时,是否只能通过选项的其他差异来选择呢?
