以下是引用YY_lalala在2007-3-7 21:37:00的发言:OG-141 141. Unlike transplants between identical twins, whose genetic endowment is the same, all patients receiving hearts or other organs must take antirejection drugs for the rest of their lives. (A) Unlike transplants between identical twins, whose genetic endowment is the same (B) Besides transplants involving identical twins with the same genetic endowment (C) Unless the transplant involves identical twins who have the same genetic endowment (D) Aside from a transplant between identical twins with the same genetic endowment (C) (E) Other than transplants between identical twins, whose genetic endowment is the same 疑问: 按照薰衣紫草NN总结的规则,此题B/C/D应该都是同样的逻辑错误。但是OG-141的解释中指出了B/D选项限制性修饰带来的逻辑错误,却认为C选项是正确答案。 In B and D the expression identical twins with the same genetic endowment wrongly suggests that only some identical twin pairs are genetically identical. Choice C, the best answer, solves these problems by using a clause introduced by Unless to describe the exception to the rule and a nonrestrictive clause beginning with who to describe the characteristic attributed to all identical twins. 疑惑中,请NN帮忙~~!!
这个问题问的真是太好了,我查了1个小时关于限定非限定的资料,有如下两点体会. 1. 根据arizon state university的教材, who也有可能引导非限制性定语从句. 2. 所有我查到的美国人的资料都没有把是否有逗号当作唯一的标准来判断; 真正唯一的标准都是要求从意思上来判断,是否是必须的,不可或缺的内容,所以我们自己做的这些流传甚广的总结至多只能是适用于大多数情况,并不绝对. 如下就是老美的划分! Restrictive Non-Restrictive (appositive/parenthetical) a. begins with wh words or that may begin with wh words b. presents highly relevant information gives “extra” information c. is not separated from the sentence is separated by commas, dashes, or parentheses |
