resulting from 这里产生ambiguity,可能是suffer from的伴随状语，可能是dwindling food suppliers的补语

我的理解A和B很大的差异还在于reselting from和as a result of，这里是Ron的一个回复

consensus is that you just can't have 'resulting from' after a comma.


    
you can have it as an adjective modifier, without a comma - as in the following sentence:

the flooding resulting from the abnormally strong storms had left six inches of standing water in the street.
    
note that the boldface is an adjective modifier, modifying 'flooding'.


    
it appears that on the gmat, as well as in standard written english
in general, 'resulting from' after a comma is generally considered
unacceptable.


choice b features the standard use of a prepositional phrase as an adverb modifier:

'(possibly) as a result of', like other prepositional phrases that follow commas, serves to modify the action of the preceding clause (i.e., were dwindling).  this is totally standard usage, so make sure you know it.

以下是引用SuccessMBA08在2008/8/22 11:56:00的发言：

句尾＋，ving形式基本都是做伴随状语

是不是。VING这种形式在句尾可做状语 也可做定语啊 因此此题该种用法造成歧义了？

以下是引用笨笨可可在2008/7/28 8:45:00的发言：

A study of food resources in the North Pacific between 1989 and 1996 revealed that creatures of the seabed were suffering from dwindling food supplies, possibly resulting from increasing sea surface temperatures during the same period.

(A) that creatures of the seabed were suffering from dwindling food supplies, possibly resulting from increasing

(B) that creatures of the seabed were suffering because food supplies were dwindling, possibly as a result of an increase in

(C) that creatures of the seabed were suffering because of food supplies, which were dwindling possibly as a result of increasing

(D) creatures of the seabed that were suffering from food supplies that were dwindling, possibly resulting from an increase in

(E) creatures of the seabed that were suffering because food supplies were dwindling, which possibly resulted from increasing

请问一下，我想排除A的理由是最后的resulting from是伴随状语，因为逻辑主语是creatures，所以不能用，因为results from逻辑主语应该是dwinde.

B中就不一样，因为as a result of 前面的dwindling?

对A的解释是对的，因为resulting逻辑主语错了；B中as a result of作状语，没有逻辑主语问题

从A看，SVO，V+ing， 这个"，V+ing"做结果状语从句和伴随状语从句都是逻辑上讲不通的， 只有变成定语从句，才能讲通。那是不是如果有逗号的话，V+ing就不能做前面的的定语了呢？
