First discovered more than 30 years ago, Lina's sunbird, a four-and-a-half-inch animal found in the
Philippines and that resembles a hummingbird, has shimmering metallic colors on its head; a
brilliant orange patch, bordered with red tufts, in the center of its breast; and a red eye.
(A) found in the Philippines and that resembles
(B) found in the Philippines and that, resembling
(C) found in the Philippines and resembling
(D) that is found in the Philippines and it resembles
(E) that is found in the Philippines and that, resembling
考点: 平行对称(Parallelism)
1) 并列句主语相同,应该省略重复的主语
(A) animal found in…and that结构不平行
(B) and that没有平行的从句。
(C) 正确, animal found…and resembling两个分词修饰animal构成平行结构
(D) and连接的两个并列结构主语相同,后一个主语应该省略,去掉it.
(E) animal that is found…and that, resembling结构不平行,第二个that从句缺少谓语动词。
句子结构: First discovered.. Lina’s sunbird, a …animal found in… and resembling…, has…;句子
补充说明:
正确选项C中两个分词之所以一个用-ed形式,一个用-ing形式是因为found表示了被动态:animal is
found in the Philippines, 而resembling表示的主动语态:such animal resembles a hummingbird.(与
OG10-210题用法相同,可参考OG解释)
注意以下两个句子的区别:
1. Intar has moved away from the Spanish classics and now draws on the works of contemporary
Hispanic authors.
2. Intar has moved away from the Spanish classics, and now it draws on the works of
contemporary Hispanic authors.
第一个句子中and前没有逗号,因此and连接的两个并列句中第二个并列结构应该省略重复的主语. 而
第二句子中and前有逗号,因此and连接两个独立的句子,每个句子都需要自己的主谓宾,因此第二个句
子中的it不能省略.
