再问OG 120

balabaladou7

120. The Parthenon was a church from 1204 until 1456, when Athens was taken by General Mohammed the 

        Conqueror, the Turkish sultan, who established a mosque in the building and used the Acropolis as a fortress.

(A) who established a mosque in the building and used the Acropolis as
(B) who, establishing a mosque in the building, used the Acropolis like
(C) who, when he had established a mosque in the building, used the Acropolis like
(D) who had established a mosque in the building, using the Acropolis to be
(E) establishing a mosque in the building and using the Acropolis as

请教题干的翻译。

看过OG的解释和大家的讨论，我觉得问题在于，从逻辑上，who established a mosque in the building and used the Acropolis as 到底需要修饰谁。

mosque不是church，Acropolis既可以被 Athens 当做堡垒，也可以被the Turkish sultan当做堡垒，这在逻辑上有什么问题呢？为什么就 absurd 了呢？

General Mohammed the Conqueror 中 the Conqueror 的成分是什么呢？

请教大家。谢谢。

the Conqueror 做同位语修饰General Mohammed，后面的who established非限定修饰the Conqueror.

至于Conqueror为什么大写，是对于君主/带头大哥的一个称号，前面要加the，可以归类为同位语型的名称。

谢谢斑竹。这种同位语表达的确少见。

那么，下面这个问题呢？

mosque不是church，Acropolis既可以被 Athens 当做堡垒，也可以被the Turkish sultan当做堡垒，这在逻辑上有什么问题呢？为什么就 absurd 了呢？

不矛盾啊。

在那个把mosque修到parthenon里并且把acropolis当城堡的名叫mohammed的人统治athens的那段时间，parthenon是church。

红色是主干，蓝色是时间状语的主要部分，黑色是修饰mohammed这个人
