OG12-SC42, 老题新问

babybearmm

这问题我不知道.....呼唤NN
我个人感觉，仅凭语感，最好是  A that is a ... and that extends
不过这题，OG解释了：
B Extends is a present tense verb, not the
participle needed for parallel structure; the
ostensible parallel between extends and the
distant verb is is superficial and would result
in an awkward and unclear sentence.

这题还是从必须理解逻辑含义才能做对。

假如  一个巨子   A that is a ····and extends这样对不
        我对答案想的时候毫不犹豫的选了B，现在如果修饰的是filigree,那我的就是错的，但把这道题抛开，就单纯的看这样的一个定语从句，不知道对否

我翻了下总结的第og 47题的E选项
In 1713, Alexander Pope began his translation of the
Iliad, a work that, taking him seven years until
completion, and that literary critic Samuel Johnson,
Pope’s contemporary, pronounced the greatest
translation in any language.
(A) his translation of the Iliad, a work that, taking
him seven years until completion, and that
literary critic Samuel Johnson, Pope’s
contemporary, pronounced
(B) his translation of the Iliad, a work that took him
seven years to complete and that literary critic
Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary,
pronounced
(C) his translation of the Iliad, a work that had taken
seven years to complete and that literary critic
Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary,
pronounced it as
(D) translating the Iliad, a work that took seven
years until completion and that literary critic
Samuel Johnson, Pope’s contemporary,
pronounced it as
(E) translating the Iliad, a work that had taken seven
years to complete and literary critic Samuel
Johnson, Pope’s contemporary, pronounced it


  a work that ······and SJ pronounced
 og说 the coordinating conjunction introduces inappropriate empasis on Jonson's description,and the expression is awkward and unclear
也就是说  少了个that    导致句子重心转移


a work that ····and SJ pronounced
这样还是不对

manhattan说
parallel clauses should start with same word


I  want to retire to a place where I can relax and that has a low taxes
错误

还是要严格遵循平行，不知道这样解释是否正确

赞啊~~谢谢suri
那就说如果那么并列，extends前面必须加that吧？

我觉得还是加上that,但也不能太绝对，关键是把握句子逻辑意思，具体问题具体分析~~~我发现现在总结题目有些点啊真的是有点前后矛盾的感觉

赞啊~~谢谢suri

请问“ a giant fungus that is an interwoven filigree of mushrooms and rootlike tentacles spawned by a single fertilized spore
some 10,000 years ago and extending for more than 30 acres in the soil of a Michigan forest.”这部分是作为什么成分出现在句子里的?是独立主格还是what的同位语？

Suri在奋斗

是同位语， a giant organism的同位语

我的意思是这一整段段东西是作为之前what的同位语出现，还是单独作为独立主格，或者是其它？搞不明白啊~

babybearmm

suri说得对，是属于同位语(appositive)，同时在结构上也算独立主格(absolute phrase = noun + noun modifier)

Scientists have recently discovered what could be the
largest and oldest living organism on Earth, a giant
fungus that is an interwoven filigree of mushrooms and
rootlike tentacles spawned by a single fertilized spore
some 10,000 years ago and extending for more than
30 acres in the soil of a Michigan forest.

这句话从整体上看，青色部分是很典型的appositive的结构，修饰的是紫色部分，青色部分作为appositive的是一个absolute phrase：
( ) fungus (that is Y) (spawned and extending)


关于"COMMA+appositive"，这个appositive的修饰对象，分为两种情况，Ron在这里讲的很详细：

我编2个简单的例子吧
Scientists found that plants undergo photosynthesis, a process taken place in chloroplasts within the cells.
Scientists found that plants undergo photosynthesis, a finding fundamental to biological sciences.
你看，同样的appositive结构，修饰对象不同，所以说appositive修饰什么要从句意逻辑上去理解。
