49. The cameras of the Voyager 2 spacecraft detected six small, previously unseen moons circling Uranus, which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting the distant planet.
a. which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting
b. doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known to orbit
c. Which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known in orbit around
d. doubling to twelve the number of satellites now known as orbiting
e. which doubles to twelve the number of satellites now known that orbit
问题一:OGSC上说"The pronoun "which" should be used to refer to a previously mentioned noun, not to the idea expressed in an entire clause."但我记得无论中文还是英文的语法资料上都说which可作非限定性定语,修饰前面的整个句子.这里我感觉double的主语应该是前面的整句话所表达的意思,所以我做题是从a,c, e中选的,当然我是错的,但错在哪里?
问题二:OGSC上说"the participal form, "doubling", modifies the preceding clause."也就是说doubling的逻辑主语应该是前面的整个句子,这我同意.但我翻遍了张道真的书也没看见这种用法(只有现在分词做结果壮语和ETS的解释有点相似,但通常这种情况,主句的主语也可看做现在分词动作的发出者,).在我的知识里,doubling 处于这样的位置,camera就成了doubling 的发出者,但这于文中表达的意思不符,为什么用doubling?
