OG-39,49 现在分词放在句尾的修饰

JerryGuan

谢谢D兄，我想以下改进1的再改进：


改进1的再改进：For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames, used to protect warriors against enemy arrows and spears, were essential items of military equipment. 是否是正确的？


或者将原答案：For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment, protecting warriors against enemy arrows and spears.    


改为：For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames, protecting warriors against enemy arrows and spears, were essential items of military equipment.    是否更准确？

为什么不选E to protect 呢？

我感觉to do 放句未，在gmat中99%错，我还没印象有对的例子，而且to do本身单独用一般有表目的意味，这里没这个意思。to do在gmat中多用于词组。

请问一下：39－B/D的as为什么是incorrect?

我爱宝宝

stoneren ：as是连词，不能这么用。

个人认为改进2正确，原因一见og191答案d的解释

Lawmakers are examining measures that would require banks to disclose all fees and account requirements in writing, provide free cashing of government checks, and to create basic savings accounts to carry minimal fees and require minimal initial deposits.

(A)  provide free cashing of government checks, and to create basic savings accounts to carry

(B)   provide free cashing of government checks, and creating basic savings accounts carrying

(C)  to provide free cashing of government checks, and creating basic savings accounts that carry

(D)  to provide free cashing of government checks, creating basic savings accounts to carry

(E)   to provide free cashing of government checks, and to create basic savings accounts that carry

Choice E, the best answer, is the only choice that maintains parallelism with the infinitive phrases to disclose..., [to] provide ..., and to create .... In A and B, the second element lacks the infinitive marker to. Choice C loses parallelism by shifting to a participial phrase, creating .... Choice D loses parallelism by dropping the conjunction and', a modification problem results because the participial phrase creating ... attaches to the noun checks, thus distorting the meaning of the last element of the parallel construction.

原因2，protecting〉〉好于used to protect ，更简洁

我的问题，为什么答案D中creating basic savings accounts to carry 不能成为 to provide

free cashing of government checks的结果壮语？是以下可能原因吗：to provide free

cashing of government checks的逻辑主语是banks ，而banks provide free cashing of

government checks，creating basic savings accounts to carry 句中creating basic savings

accounts to carry 优先成为定语？？？怎么感觉这么怪啊？？？

请牛牛指点，怎样区分在句末的定语修饰和壮语修饰啊？我发现自己问了个和楼主一样的问题。

又重新看了原贴，还是糊涂啊。

请牛牛指点。

as 可不可以作为介词，解释为“作为”，不太理解'as a protection of为什么是错的。请哪位侠士指点。

39D. For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment, as a protection of warriors against enemy arrows and spears.

"as" is typically used to compare people/objects/ideas in the same class. There are examples from Longman:

As a parent, I feel that more should be done to protect our children.
A large flat stone was used as a table.
Dad dressed up as Santa Claus.
The result of last week's election will be seen as a victory for the right-wing government.

"items of military equipment" and a protection aren't in the same class. the use of "items of military equipment" may be.

多多讨论...

我以为是"animal-hide shields" "as a protection of"，shields 和protection是不是一个class？
