A and B convert the third element into a second, coordinate predicate for the object clause by repeating the verb are. D and E convert the third element into a second, coordinate object clause by introducing the words they are

Who can help to translate the above OG explanation? 3x

以下是引用rivergirl在2005-4-6 5:48:00的发言：
还是不太清楚and的用法, 若reticent前面加and也可以嘛? 如果最后and没有而变成 ,suspicious of strangers可以嘛?

and放在并列成分的最后一个单位之前，即A,B,C and D。

此处difficult, reticent, suspicious并列，因此只能放在suspicious之前。

并列成分要不是A，B,C,and D.

要不是A,and B,and C,and D.

绝对不能A,and B,C,D.或A,and B,C,and D.等。

这个用法我倒真没注意到，谢谢wingkim，不过好像OG里面还没见到过吧？

155.
            Federal authorities involved in the investigation have found the local witnesses（证人） are difficult to locate, reticent, and are
            suspicious（怀疑的） of strangers.

       * difficult 、reticent、suspicious平行并列

(A) the local witnesses are difficult to locate, reticent, and are

(B) local witnesses to be difficult to locate, reticent, and are

(C) that local witnesses are difficult to locate, reticent（沉默寡言）, and

(D) local witnesses are difficult to locate and reticent, and they are（C）

(E) that local witnesses are difficult to locate and reticent, and they are（破坏与found 后面的that的平行，逻辑语义有问题）

以上是我的分析，仅供参考

155. Federal authorities involved in the investigation have found the local witnesses are difficult to locate, reticent, and are suspicious of strangers.
(A) the local witnesses are difficult to locate, reticent, and are
(B) local witnesses to be difficult to locate, reticent, and are
(C) that local witnesses are difficult to locate, reticent, and
(D) local witnesses are difficult to locate and reticent, and they are
(E) that local witnesses are difficult to locate and reticent, and they are


答案是C，我选A。可是我觉得C中最后少个are 啊！按结构，difficult to locate, reticent, 难道说suspicious 也从属difficult 的嘛？不理解。


另外想问一下限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句从意思上去区分呢？为什么有时就要用非限制，有时就要用限制？

还有不是有种情况因为定语太长而把that 句子后移嘛？这样难道不会造成歧义？不会是认为that 修饰它正前面的东西？

在OG 11edition里，这是SC第35题。其划线部分是包括are的，所以，选C以后是三个形容词的并列: difficult, reticent, and suspicious

adven

我对题干的理解:

difficult to locate, reticent, and suspicious of 三个部分修饰strangers, 题干的意思是: 调查机构发现本地的证人都是一些行踪不定,沉默寡言,令人生疑的陌生人. 言下之意是调查机构觉得这些证人不可信.

此题中THAT引导的是表语从句吗?
