134.       (31696-!-item-!-188;#058&004702)

 

Among lower-paid workers, union members are less likely than nonunion members to be enrolled in lower-end insurance plans imposing stricter limits on medical services and requiring doctors to see more patients, and spend less time with each.

 

(A) imposing stricter limits on medical services and requiring doctors to see more patients, and spend

(B) imposing stricter limits on medical services, requiring doctors to see more patients, and spending

(C) that impose stricter limits on medical services, require doctors to see more patients, and spend

(D) that impose stricter limits on medical services and require doctors to see more patients, spending

(E) that impose stricter limits on medical services, requiring doctors to see more patients and spending

这道题解释说spending修饰动词see表结果。可我有个疑问，spending是否有歧义修饰主语动词，同样表结果呢？

另外我还特别想问的是，由于ing引导分句放在句末可以表结果，又可能修饰最近的名词，甚至像这句修饰最近的动词，那如何区分它们不歧义呢？

我记得有人总结with用法时就提过with放在句末用逗号隔开要慎用，因为即可能修饰宾语，又可能修饰主语，成为歧义。

现在分词短语在句尾时:

现在分词作伴随状语,逻辑主语为前句主句,与谓语动词同时发生;

现在分词作伴随表结果,整个前句是原因,因此无逻辑主语.

貌似只有过去分词短语在句尾才能作定语修饰就近名词.

关于是否有歧义,我认为还是要根据句意来判断,不能一杆子打翻一船人.

至于with放在句尾用逗号隔开的确是容易造成歧义.不过还是要根据具体情况来判断.

嗯，我觉得您说的比较中肯。我觉得呢，您说的前两者其实是不影响我们做题的，所以我基本不做区别。看句意就明白是那种了。现在分词作定语用逗号隔开修饰就近名词我印象里是有，哪天碰上了再拿出来讨论吧。确实不能一概论之，但我觉得这个现象没人注意过，歧义应该是有可能的。
