关于万年必考的代词指代问题

XDF指出:代词指代对象的查找顺序: 先主语的核心词,再宾语或者表语,最后修饰语的中心词.

主从句中主句中的代词可指代从句中的名词, 从句中的代词可指代主句中的名词,但是要根据逻辑关系判断代词的具体指代对象.

是否该这样理解:如果从逻辑上,一个单数单词指代一个单数的修饰语中心词,那么这句话中的主语,宾语和表语都需要是复数才能避免歧义.

另外今天在做OG12时有发现了个问题,

OG12-91 Nobody knows exactly how many lanuages there are in the world,partly because of the difficulty of distinguishing between a language and the sublanguages or dialects within it,but those who have tried ti count typically have found about five thousand.

这句话中的代词IT,出现在插入语(是该这么叫么?)当中,这种情况指代的顺序怎么理解呢? 

在做OG12,发现SC部分越来越灵活了,不掌握透彻很容易出问题,NN们出手指点下吧,谢谢了

代词指代没有什么特定规律,还是要看逻辑

但是有一点:一个句子中的两个代词得指代相同的东西

Nobody knows exactly how many languages there are in the world,
        
partly because of the difficulty of distinguishing between a language
        
and the sub-languages or dialects within it, but those who have tried to count typically have found about five thousand.

  1. and the sub-languages or dialects within it, but those who have
                
    tried to count typically have found

  2. and the sub-languages or dialects within them, with those who
                
    have tried counting typically finding

  3. and the sub-languages or dialects within it, but those who have
                
    tried counting
                            it
                        
    typically find

  4. or the sub-languages or dialects within them, but those who tried
                
    to count them typically found

  5. or the sub-languages or dialects within them, with those who have
                
    tried to count typically finding

B中,them指代错误,应指代 a language
                    

C 中,后面那个it和前面那个应指代一致, a language 。但是显然,count的是languages

谢谢高手出手相教,但是我还有有点不明白,如果没有指代规律及先手顺序一说的话,那么指代模糊怎么说呢?

肯定是该代词的指代对象从逻辑角度和从语法角度不一致才会有歧义或指代不明确的说法呀.

我觉得是有优先指代这一说,但是不能太过认准这一说法,题目很多不是按这一规律来的

那个优先指代,我觉得是主从句之间,可能有这种倾向

比如说:although the book..., it...

这时it优先指代book

代词指代模糊就是说,比如前面出现了很多名词复数,后面来个they,那就指代模糊了

没有题目实在是说不清,你要是有题目咱们探讨,共同进步...

没办法同学可真是有办法啊,我们来看看OG12-107吧.

Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced x-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, is finding uses in medicine, archaeology, and criminology.

这是原句并且是正确答案.划线最后的IT指代什么呢?

是否从指代优先级角度看,它该指代主句主语a technique ,但是从逻辑角度,看它是指代substance,也就是说指代的是从句状语的中心词.这不就存在指代问题了么?但是它是正确答案.

另外按照你的解释,it 之前出现了2个不同的单数名词,明显也是指代混乱的呀

我把题目完全贴出来:

107. Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it, is finding uses in medicine, archaeology, and criminology.

(A) Originally developed for detecting air pollutants, a technique called proton-induced X-ray emission, which can quickly analyze the chemical elements in almost any substance without destroying it,

他这个it逻辑上指代substance,语法上就近指代前面的substance没有歧义的

我觉得“优先指代”这种说法本身就很片面,不能泛化。

像下面这种形式的,你就可以运用“优先指代”

og11-111: As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it would be rated about 20/500or legally blind if it were an adult with such vision.

(A)
                        
As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision, it would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind if it were an adult with such vision.

(B)
                        
A baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision that would be rated about 20/500, or legally blind as an adult

(C)
                    
As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb, its rudimentary sense of vision would be rated about 20/500; qualifying it to be legally blind if an adult

(D)
                        
A baby emerges from the darkness of the womb with a rudimentary sense of vision that would be rated about 20/500; an adult with such vision would be deemed legally blind.

(E)  As a baby emerges from the darkness of the womb, its rudimentary sense of vision, which would deemed legally blind for an adult, would be rated about 20/500.

OA:D

og11上面就说:A的指代有问题,因为他优先指代前面分句的主语“baby”

我把解释贴出来你看看:

Grammatical construction

This sentence fails to convey its meaning because its construction is faulty.
                        
It begins with a subordinate clause, whose subject is
                        
a baby;
                            the subject of the main clause, it appears to refer back to baby.

However, reading the main clause reveals that it is intended to refer to the
                            
sense of vision
                                
the first time it is used and to the
                            
baby
                                
the second time.
                        
代词指代应注重前后指代的一致性!!!

The whole sentence must be revised, and the relationships between the two parts of the sentence must be clarified.

A       Repeated use of it creates confusion because the referent is not clear

总而言之,我觉得代词指代还是要看逻辑,看句子意思

og上面有的说歧义,有的不说歧义,你不能把代词指代作为一种排除选项的方法(除非他错的很明显)

例如:prep上面:

There are hopeful signs that we are shifting away from our heavy reliance on fossil fuels: more than ten times as much
            energy is generated through wind power now than it was in 1990.

(A) generated through wind power now than it was

(B) generated through wind power now as it was

(C) generated through wind power now as was the case
            

(D) now generated through wind power as it was

(E) now generated through wind power than was the case

不选B的原因就是指代错误:

B.
                            It
精确指代现在通过风能产生的电力,这个电力不可能再出现在1990年,故用it造成了该选项逻辑含义不合理。

上面这道题太精辟了,我已经记到我的错题集里去了,这让我想起了另外两道题,也是关于比较的。

According to a recent poll, owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults, like that

of earlier generations.

(A) like that of earlier generations

(B) as that for earlier generations

(C) just as earlier generations did

(D) as have earlier generations

(E) as it was of earlier generations

这题我错选了A,当时觉得原句比较的是宾语即the goal of the earlier generation 和the goal of the young adult的比较,但是正确答案选E,即表示是主语的比较,为什么理解成宾语的比较有问题呢?

OG12-13也有同样的问题

In no other historical sighting did Halley's Comet cause such a worldwide sensation as did its return in 1910-1922

A did its return in 1910-1911

B had its 1910-1911 return

C in its return of 1910-1911

D its return of 1910-1911 did

E its return in 1910-1911

OG解释说是介词结构In no other historical sighting 的比较,所以选C,这个有点摸不着头脑,没办法同学麻烦给想个办法吧,谢谢啦

不过你说的prep上的那个问题,我还是有点疑问的。

譬如说The money I earn this year is more than that i earn last year.这样的话,that 也不能用了么?SC中经常会出现的,今年经济和去年经济的比较,A国土地和B国土地的比较,从逻辑上来看也都不是一个东西啊,可是过去都是用that指代的呀。还是说that 也可以,只是在这题中出现了更精确的选项?

再说关于代词that/those/this/these 指得是同类事物阿,没说一定要是相同事物啊?迷茫中

第一题,其实原来我第一次做也是错了的,呵呵,没搞清比较对象

According to a recent poll, owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is still a goal of a majority of young adults, like that of earlier generations.

(A) like that of earlier generations

(B) as that for earlier generations

(C) just as earlier generations did

(D) as have earlier generations

(E) as it was of earlier generations

其实他是想比较整个句子的,

就是说owning and living in a freestanding house on its own land is a goal 这件事情在两代人之间比较,如果仅仅是goal在比较,就有点不精确了,你在体会体会

而且吧,我觉得like放在句尾怪怪的,如果放在句首变成,like a goal...,the goal...我可能会考虑,呵呵,这点我没有求证过,好像like在句尾其他地方出现过...

OG12-13也有同样的问题

In no other historical sighting did Halley's Comet cause such a worldwide sensation as did its return in 1910-1922

A did its return in 1910-1911

B had its 1910-1911 return

C in its return of 1910-1911

D its return of 1910-1911 did

E its return in 1910-1911

这个题吧,其实有个很好的办法,我第一次做也错了的。。。后来看了半天

这题最大的问题就是搞不清比较对象,而且又是倒装,很郁闷

你看我黄色mark出来的部分,其实他就在给你暗示什么在比较,In no other historical sighting ,出现 no other那么跟定有个相应的另外的东西么,要不然用other干什么呢?所以肯定是时间状语在比较了...

还原后,

Halley's comet did not cause such a worldwide sensation in other historical sighting
            as
it did
        
in its return of 1910–1911
            

是彗星在其他观测活动和在它1910回归的那次比.彗星作为相同主语省略.

还有一个类似的:

There is nowhere in early American literature where the influence of Jane Austen is so apparent as the novels of James Fenimore Cooper.

A. There is nowhere in early American literature where the influence of Jane Austen is so apparent as

B. In early American literature, nowhere is Jane Austin's influence so apparent than in

C. It is nowhere more apparent in early American literature that Jane Austen was an influence as in

D. Nowhere in early American literature is the influence of Jane Austen more apparent than in

E. Nowhere in early American literature is it more apparent that Jane Austen had an influence than

也是时间状语在比较,而且是倒装

这句话用that很对啊,用it就不对了,因为it是精确指代

诶呀,不好意思我没有看懂你问的什么???
