以下是引用dingxiang在2008-8-18 11:16:00的发言:还来不及看各位的comments,待我过会儿 看到PREP又一个例子,证明分词是就近修饰的 101. (29777-!-item-!-188;#058&004380) The electronics company has unveiled what it claims to be the world's smallest network digital camcorder, the length of which is that of a handheld computer, and it weighs less than 11 ounces. (B) to be the smallest network digital camcorder in the world, which is as long as a handheld computer, weighing (C) is the smallest network digital camcorder in the world, which is as long as a handheld computer, and it weighs (D) is the world's smallest network digital camcorder, which is as long as a handheld computer and weighs (E) is the world's smallest network digital camcorder, the length of which is that of a handheld computer, weighing E错误的原因就在于weighing 就近修饰computer, 证明分词是就近修饰的,不能跳过插入语来修饰更前面的 这个E错误的原因不是weighing 就近修饰computer吧? E选项错误太多很难说明“weighing 就近修饰computer”这个错误的存在。 1、the length of which is that of a handheld computer,这个说camcorder的长度就是computer的长度是不符合逻辑的。 2、 the length of which is that of a handheld computer, weighing两个的功能应该是一样的,不应该不对称,都是同位修饰camcorder的。 3. awkward compared to D. 另外我认为,现在分词与过去分词是有差别的:(要不然白勇为什么要添一句过去分词与其前面名词关系紧密,而没说现在分词呢?) 现在分词放句尾前面加逗号了,该现在分词修饰就是做状语,伴随前面的action或者伴随结果。 而现在分词前面没有加逗号,而且前面是名词的时候才做定语(当然要逻辑合理为先)。 本题老外对E的解释的一条是: WRONG. Present participle is used to modify the action。 http://www.urch.com/forums/gmat-sentence-correction/96937-electronics-company.html 这句话,验证的我的说法,weighing在此是做状语,但是伴随关系逻辑错误,所以weighing的使用错误。 |
