113. Although aspirin irritates the stomach, it can avoided if the aspirin tablet is given a coating that will not dissolve until the tablet reaches the intestine.
(A) Although aspirin irritates the stomach, it
(B) The irritation of the stomach caused by aspirin
(C) The fact that aspirin causes irritation of the stomach
(D) Aspirin causes stomach irritation, although it
(E) Aspirin irritates the stomach, which

知道答案是B，但是有一个问题  A  of  B后面跟从句或者分词来修饰，到底是A还是B？

原来一直以为是修饰中心词A的，不觉得有歧义，错了好多题。才搞明白是就近修饰。

那么这里irritation of the stomach caused by aspirin又是怎么回事啊？caused by aspirin肯定是修饰irritation才对

请NN解惑，否则又要错一大片了：（

哇，这个问题对我来说很关键的。

NN关注一下吧，多谢了

前后修饰都可以，最明显的是根据谓语动词单复数判断修饰对象，其次是根据逻辑意思。

“后修饰都可以，最明显的是根据谓语动词单复数判断修饰对象，其次是根据逻辑意思。”

哦，可如果单复数或者逻辑判断都刚好是选项中的不同点呢？那是不是说两个都对，要找其他知识点去判断？

比如OG11-103

103. The development of a new jumbo rocket that is expected to carry the United States into its next phase of space exploration will be able to deliver a heavier load of instruments into orbit than the space shuttle and at a lower cost.

我一开始能否判断that  is  是有修饰歧义吗?

还是要根据逻辑句意判断是修饰rocket的?--------是该这么考虑吧???

比如说

85. Out of America’s fascination with all things antique have grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that are bringing back the chaise lounge, the overstuffed sofa, and the claw-footed bathtub.
(B) things antique has grown a market for bygone styles of furniture and fixtures that is bringing

这里的that从句修饰market,是根据逻辑句意来判断的,还是A  for  b  of  c  that的形式,肯定是修饰中心词的?

顶起来，同问此题~
caused by应该理解为修饰irritation，但OG里有些题会觉得是就近修饰，那么此题是否可能因就近修饰the stomach而引起歧义呢？
另，C有何错误呢？

根据manhattan的解释，后面的定语应该是修饰a of b 的全部，单独修饰一个是解释不通的
