A. twice as much as 1977
B. twice as many as 1977
C. double what it was in 1977
D. double the figure for 1977
E. a number double that of 1977's
Answer: d
double在这里是什么词性? predeterminer . the phrase is: double the amount/number/size etc 动词,句子结构好像不对;形容词么,adj+the可以么,还有没有类似的结构?请nn指教!
一般名词词组结构为:限定词+前置定语+名词+后置定语。前置定语和后置定语常常为形容词或定语从句诸如此类,不必深究,前置定语和后置定语可有可无,而限定词一般需要有。限定词又分三类:前位限定词,中位限定词,后位限定词。这些分类也不必太深究,但至少需要记得double, twice等表示倍数的属于前位限定词,而至于经常见到的the, those等冠词则属于中位限定词。当名词需要两类限定词修饰时(如OG此题中),那么原则是前位限定词必须位于中位限定词之前。题目中double the figure for 1977属于名词独立结构。

希望有帮助!
谢谢,你的回答很有帮助.
受你的启发,我查了语法书,double 在此处确实是predeterminer, 所以整个double the figure for 1977就是个名词词组,但我还要继续请教,按你的解释,这个名词词组单独做"名词独立结构",请问,"名词独立结构" 是 同位语吗?是独立主格吗?我查了语法书,但没有答案.或者请指点出处我自己查.
