感谢两位的大力支持!但是我这人比较笨,还是没有深刻理解你们的意思。 这是正确的B选项: As the etched lines on computer memory chips have become thinner and the chips’ circuits more complex, the power of both the chips and the electronic devices they drive has vastly increased. 我认为,本题中chips不管在从句中或是主句中就没有做过独立的名词中心语: as从句:从句主语由两个中心语并列组成,它们是lines and circuits。chips是作为定语的身份出现。 主句:主语的中心语是power,它有两个并列的修饰语:chips and devices。chips同样是作为定语,而且还不是独立的定语,而是并列定语中的一个。 在判断they的指代时,我先找主句可以指代的名词: 由于主句主语power是单数形式,排除;其修饰语chips and devices从逻辑上判断是they drive这个从句的宾语,是they drive的对象,也排除。至此,主句中已经没有可以指代的名词。 于是,我开始找从句,并认为they指lines and circuits是从语法上(根据以上排除法)逻辑上都说得通的。 现在我不明白的是,为什么大家排除they指代lines and circuits这个直接出现在名词中心语位置上的可能,而选择chips这个至始至终都没能做过独立中心语的名词作为they的指代对象呢? 难道是因为主句里的代词不能指代从句里的名词?据我所知,至少主句主语位置的代词可以指代从句的名词: OG11-111 As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind if it were an adult with such vision. (A) As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind if it were an adult with such vision. (B) A baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision that would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind as an adult. (C) As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb, its rudimentary sense of vision would be rated about 20/500; qualifying it to be legally blind if an adult. (D) A baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision that would be rated about 20/500; an adult with such vision would be deemed legally blind.(D)考点:代词指代。主句主语位置的代词等于句首状语的主语。A错。B中or是连词,不管连接的是that分句的内容还是主句的内容逻辑主语(分句主语或主句主语)都不对。C的分号后是一个fragment。E中which状语的指代对象错误。 (E) As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb, its rudimentary sense of vision, which would be deemed legally blind for an adult, would be rated about 20/500. 这是OG10和OG11的解释差不多:In choice A, it, the subject of the main clause, seems to refer to baby, the subject of the subordinate clause; thus, A seems to state that the newborn baby, rather than its sense of vision, would be rated 20/500. 那么,为什么大家排除they指代lines and circuits这个直接出现在名词中心语位置上的可能,而选择chips这个至始至终都没能做过独立中心语的名词作为they的指代对象呢? 请大家再帮忙指导一下。
