第二页看不到？还是不明白啊

1。我认为Vendor是兜售小商品的小商贩。小商贩和乞丐围着车...

2。答案C如果没有who更象正确答案。原句则为A phenomena ... is (that) waves...mob cars

请N人们再答疑啊，多谢多谢！

colacat

vendor是自动贩卖机，就是你投进去几块前的硬币，给你瓶饮料的那种

colacat

choice C :  A new phenomenon visible at Managua’s major intersections is waves of vendors and beggars, many of them children, who mob cars at the stoplights.

的结构是 a new phenomenon +形容词短语做定语+ is waves of verdors and beggars,同位语修饰beggars, + who引导的非限制性定语从句修饰 children.

谢谢Colacat...不过还有疑问：

1。Vendor: 看来我是为中国国情所累，以为Vendor即小商贩，因为常见些小贩在红灯时围着车卖小东西。OK，当它是自动贩卖机吧。

2。如果结构是“ a new phenomenon +形容词短语做定语+ is waves of verdors and beggars,同位语修饰beggars, + who引导的非限制性定语从句修饰 children”，那么该句即可简化为：A new phenominon is waves of vendors and beggars. (就不是表语从句了）这样一来，“is”怎么不该是"are"？

colacat

a+N 当然是单数了，所以是is

即使是简化，也是主系表结构，也不是表语从句啊

明白了，谢谢。

wave + s 待研究....

colacat

waves是做n

of +n and n介宾短语做定语修饰waves

我觉得Vendors是小商贩的意思，在十字路口那，车辆等红灯时，商贩和乞丐会围上来，而当中不少是儿童

i can not understand why is a phenomenon visible. why not a visible phenomenon?

laoyv

it depends on which part you want to emphasize.

for example, "A new phenomenon visible at...." emphasizes "Phenomenon"

"A new visible phenomenon" emphasizes "visible phenomenon", which means that there are already some other "visible phenomenons" and this is a new one, which just does not make too much sense...

hopefully this will be helpful.
