以下是引用祝英台在2008-4-20 9:35:00的发言:别的选项我明白。 我不明白为什么OG说E中them不能指代illustrations 而 Affording strategic proximity to the Strait of Gibraltar, Morocco was also of interest to the French throughout the first half of the twentieth century because they assumed that if they did not hold it, their grip on Algeria was always insecure. (A) if they did not hold it, their grip on Algeria was always insecure (B) without it their grip on Algeria would never be secure (C) their grip on Algeria was not ever secure if they did not hold it (D) without that, they could never be secure about their grip on Algeria (E) never would their grip on Algeria be secure if they did not hold it 这里E的it却可以因为指代Algeria 产生歧义。 为什么都是指代介词的宾语,2个不一样呢 姐妹们,我回来啦。 这句的them是不可以指代illustrations的。为什么呢? Beatrix Potter(主语), in her book illustrations(插入语), carefully coordinated(谓语) them(宾语) with her narratives 注意,这里的them指代的是句子的插入语部分的illustrations,而them,it是不可以指代插入语的。(记住哦)
再看另一句子。 never would their grip on Algeria be secure if they did not hold it 前面是倒装,句子正常语序是their grip on Algeria would never be secure if ..... their grip是if条件句的主语,后面的it应该优先指代grip,而倒装之后,ALgeria离it更近,所以会有就近指代的歧意。 |
