我认为,ETS使用with是喜欢的原则是(可能有些主观): with短语表解释说明时,表非限定,此时,一般会用逗号隔开,明确修饰的对象。例如,OG114,OG179,OG205。 with短语表限定作定语时一般都紧跟修饰词后。例如,OG141,OG152。 而with在句子中没有用逗号隔开时,又表示非限定的解释说明,往往就会造成修饰歧义(是修饰紧跟的词还是句子主语)。例如,OG212 可以从OG212题中得到例证。 212. The Baldrick Manufacturing Company has for several years followed a policy aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving the efficiency of its distribution system.
(A) aimed at decreasing operating costs and improving (E) with the aim to decrease operating costs and to improve The best choice, A。。。E, with the aim... improve can easily be construed as referring to the Baldrick Manufacturing Company and so does not refer unequivocally to policy.(不管是谁with the aim 只要有两种可能性,就是有歧异) |
