og10和og11解释出入很大的一道题,另附there be是否有就近原则的讨论

一道很老很老的题目了,今天再次做发现og10和11上的解释有本质的不同

107. Downzoning, zoning that typically results in the reduction of housing density, allows for more open space in areas where little water or services exist.

(A)
      
little water or services exist

(B)
      
little water or services exists

(C)
      
few services and little water exists

(D)
      
there is little water or services available

(E)
      
there are few services and little available water

答案选E

og10的解释:

The adjective little modifies "mass nouns" (e.g., water), which refer to some undifferentiated quantity; the adjective few modifies "count nouns" (e.g., services), which refer to groups made up of distinct members that can be considered individually. Hence, choices A, B, and D are incorrect because little cannot properly modify services.
      
Also, since water and services are being discussed as a pair, they should logically be treated as a compound subject requiring a plural verb;
       thus, the singular verbs exists (in B and C) and is (in D) are wrong. Choice E is best: the plural verb are is used, and few correctly modifies services.

而og11中对B、D的解释是

B. Singular verb exists does not agree with the plural subject services;when a compound subject is joined by or , the verb agrees with the closer subject.

D. Little cannot modify services.

我的问题:由og10解释中的红体字部分可知排除B、C、D的一个原因是water 和services看做一个compound subject时(这里应该是同时包括了由and和or连接的情况了),谓语要用复数形式

而og11清楚地表示A or B作主语时,谓语要遵循就近原则,即这里谓语要是复数的原因是要和services一致  

而og11清楚地表示A or B作主语时,谓语要遵循就近原则,即这里谓语要是复数的原因是要和services一致  

这就出现了两种截然不同的解释了  NN们解释一下吧

还有一点就是there be是否存在就近原则呢?   D选项中or换成and的话,继续用there is是否正确?

引用薰衣草牛牛的解释做答

1. there be并非就近修饰. little water and a few services中间如果用了and就要用复数谓语动词. or/either...or.../neither...nor...这些才是就近修饰.

2. 原句的意思是要表达few, little(有否定意义的词), 不要轻易改变原文的意思, 即改成a few或者a little, 这样就变成肯定了.

3. 只有否定句才用or, 而不是and. 只有含有否定词, 即no, not 才是否定句. 注意, 不是"有否定意义的词". 虽然这句句子里有few, little, 也不是否定句, 所以用and.

我目前还没找到反映上面第一条的例句  所以还是存在疑问~~   希望大家能讨论
