OG12 11 很无奈的再来一遍

myungryong

11. There are several ways to build solid walls using just

mud or clay, but the most extensively used method

has been the forming of bricks out of mud or clay,

and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying,

they are laid in the wall in mud mortar.

(A) the forming of bricks out of mud or clay, and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying, they are laid

(B) forming the mud or clay into bricks, and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying, to lay them

(C) having bricks formed from mud or clay, and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying, they were laid

(D) to form the mud or clay into bricks, and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying, to lay them

(E) that bricks were formed from mud or clay, which, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying, were laid




答案是D
我想问的是and前面的逗号
在这道题里to form 和to lay 这两个成分的平行
但是我只知道平行两个以上成分时and前加逗号，平行两个成分时and前没有逗号
请问这个逗号该怎么解释~~~？

我觉得这个是个优选问题. A), B), C), and E)错的是在很难看, 所以即使D)不是完美的答案, 也是在这5个中最好的.

我刚上的xdf，课上好像老师说过，两个并列中有插入成分的时候要加逗号~~

mabelren

after some preliminary air drying or sun drying 是插入语，需要逗号
to form 和to lay平行

myungryong

after some preliminary air drying or sun drying 是插入语，需要逗号
to form 和to lay平行

我想问的不是and后面的逗号而是前面的
应该不是to form and to lay的吗？？
为什么是to form ，and to lay 这种形式？？
，and后面不是应该加句子吗？

答案不一定是完美的，但一定得是相对最优的

根据the element of style的说法，有时为了强调可以有x，and y

LZ你这个问题我也不太清楚，我想另外问你一个问题，There are several ways to build solid walls using just mud or clay, but the most extensively used method has beento form the mud or clay into bricks, and, after some preliminary air drying or sun drying, to lay themin the wall in mud mortar. 这个是正确的句子，其中has been 和to form 中间是不是省略了“the way”呢？ 如果不是的话，has been 后面为什么可以接不定式呢？

我是这样理解的，三个并列时句型是这样的: A, B, and C.
这句话可能长些，而且还在两个不同的clause 中， 就会忽略最基本的形式。
to build, to form, and to lay are parallel.
我也不知道这样理解可以不。但觉得好像没有其他的解释了。
