1.        Byron possessed powers of observation that would have made him a great anthropologist and that makes his letters as a group the rival of the best novels of the time.

(A) makes his letters as a group the rival of

(B) makes his letters as a group one to rival

(C) makes his letters a group rivaling

(D) make his letters as a group the rival of（D）

(E) make his letters a group which is the rival of

这第二

个that从句是修饰谁的? powers 或者observation?

that 从句的修饰又没有定例指向谁呀？尤其是碰到 X of Y that

是到底是指?

rt316

这里的that修饰powers。X of Y that的定从指代的确是个问题，根本上是通过逻辑匹配来判断的，当然，有时，通过单复数也能帮助判断。从逻辑上判断其实并不容易，主要在于在做题时多加积累，培养感觉。比如此题，到底是powers使得成为anthropologist，还是observation使得成为anthropologist，从逻辑上讲powers更合理。

oh, get you. Thanks a lot.

唐三彩

个人感觉大多数情况下sth1 of sth2 that，that 从句都是指of前面的sth1。除非特别强调sth2，而sth1无足轻重，这时从逻辑上来讲that就是修饰sht2的，
