【求助】OG11版59题（12版70题）与OG verbal11版93题关于副词now的位置解释

Jene

这里的now两题中修饰对象不同
第一题修饰形容词temperate
第二题修饰动词draw

补充一点 age后面跟in which 一般情况下看到when开头的直接能排除

OG12 上说：In which or when can be used interchangeably in this sentence.  我认为不能依靠“age 后面跟in which”来排除选项。NN有什么题目可以证明吗？谢谢！

Open to discuss。。

我个人觉得now在这里是做副词修饰are所以要紧跟are,而通常情况下now是做状语所以放在句尾或句首

好问题，以前都用语感来解释，现在也想知道为什么

两道题对于副词NOW的位置好像很不一样，求NN指导


首先是OG11版59题：
59.   His studies of ice-polished rocks in his Alpine homeland, far outside the range of present-day glaciers, led Louis Agassiz in 1837 to propose* concept of an age in which great ice sheets' existed in now currently temperate areas.
A)     in which great ice sheets had existed: currently temperate areas
(B)    in which great ice sheets existed in what are now temperate areas
(C)    when great ice sheets existed where there were areas now temperate
(D)    when great ice sheets had existed in current temperate areas
(E)    when great ice sheets existed in areas now that are temperate

其中正确选项是B，对E选项，OG有如下解释： Now is an adverb and should be placed just after ther verb are


然后是verbal11版93题
93. Intar, the oldest Hispanic theater company in New York, has moved away from the Spanish classics and now it draws on the works both of contemporary Hispanic authors who live abroad and of those inthe United States.
(A)now it draws on the works both of contemporary Hispanic authors who live abroad and of
(B)now draws on the works of contemporary Hispanic authors, both those who live abroad and those who live
(C)it draws on the works of contemporary Hispanic authors now, both those living abroad and who live
(D)draws now on the works both of contemporary Hispanic authors living abroad and who are
(E)draws on the works now of both contemporary Hispanic authors living abroad and those
其中正确选项是B，对E选项，OG有如下解释：Now modifies the verb and should precede it


两个解释不一样，一个说now修饰动词放在动词前，一个说now修饰动词放在动词后面，到底NOW应该放在动词前还是后？请NN解答，谢谢啦：）

now，作为副词可以放在动词后面修饰动词；或者放在句首尾修饰整句话。now放在动词前后，强调动词发生的时间；放在句子前后强调整个句子放生时间，语义有细微差别。
eg： Now She is very happy. (首位)
        She is now very happy. (中位)
       She is very happy now. (末位)
上面三个例子都是对的，但是若有两个并列分句，now只修饰其中一个，那么需要考虑now的位置和另一分句时间状语的平行问题。第二题除E外，now的位置都没有问题，都修饰动词或者分句。
第一题E，now不知修饰前一个分句还是后一个分句。

请问一下，关于age后面跟in which 一般情况下看到when开头的直接能排除，不是这第一道题的OG解释是“In which or when can be used interchangeably in this sentence”，请问这个是怎么回事呢？

感谢解答，我觉得你说的是正确的。
所以说now的位置是可变的，标准应该是是否有利于句子的表达，是否引起了歧义。OG的解释还是有点片面的。。
