191. Lawmakers are examining measures that would require banks to disclose all fees and account requirements in writing, provide free cashing of government checks, and to create basic savings accounts to carry minimal fees and require minimal initial deposits.

(A)             provide free cashing of government checks, and to create basic savings accounts to carry

(B)             provide free cashing of government checks, and creating basic savings accounts carrying

(C)             to provide free cashing of government checks, and creating basic savings accounts that carry

(D)             to provide free cashing of government checks, creating basic savings accounts to carry

(E)              to provide free cashing of government checks, and to create basic savings accounts that carry

Choice E, the best answer, is the only choice that maintains parallelism with the infinitive phrases to disclose..., [to] provide..., and to create.... （平行）In A and B, the second element lacks the infinitive marker to. Choice C loses parallelism by shifting to a participial phrase, creating....Choice D loses parallelism by dropping the conjunction and; （不平行）a modification problem results because the participial phrase creating... attaches to the noun checks, thus distorting the meaning of the last element of the parallel construction. （???）

a modification problem results because the participial phrase creating... attaches to the noun checks, thus distorting the meaning of the last element of the parallel construction. （???）

分词放在句末 一般优先修饰主语作为状语

可是从这题的解释来看 主句+名词, 分词 这里的分词又是修饰逗号前面的名词 这是怎么回来啊

真晕

谢谢

我觉得最好不要过分追究这部分修饰什么，一般情况，我觉得分词在句末修饰最近部分的动作或主语，表示结果，目的等（说的不好）

Five fledgling sea eagles left their nests in western Scotland this summer, bringing to 34 the number of wild birds successfully raised since transplants from Norway began in 1975.

(A)      bringing

(B)       and brings

(C)      and it brings

(D)      and it brought

(E)       and brought

Choice A is best. The "-ing" (present participle) form intro­duces action that is simultaneous with the action of the main clause; i.e., bringing indicates that the number of wild birds became 34 when the sea eagles left their nests. In B, there is no subject available for the singular present-tense verb brings. The subject cannot be eagles, since that noun is plural and the action of its verb left is in the past. Neither C nor D contains a grammatical referent for it. In E, the use of and brought implies two discrete actions on the part of the eagles, and thus lacks the clarity of the best answer, where bringing underscores the cause-and-effect nature of the situation.

有这个?? 一般分词短语放后面都修饰近的先行词, 若是用逗号分开的则表伴随结果.....

各选项后面的carrying，to carry，that carry有correct上面的区别吗？还是说ets只是偏爱从句引入复杂的修饰？？？

请问:各选项后面的carrying，to carry，that carry有correct上面的区别吗？

在本题中,我觉得carrying和and require不平行,不选.

但是to carry 和that carry,我偏向to carry.因为根据原文,有目的的含义.

这两天又重新总结到这个题，此题对于carry出现三种形式的修饰形式，正好把各种修饰形式想了一边

to carry有表目的意思，是作为状语修饰，但在此题里是修饰accounts作为定语的。

carrying紧跟accounts很明显作为定语修饰accounts，但是作为分词修饰一般为非限定修饰（这点请NN指点是否正确），而这里的accounts需要的是限定修饰，所以用从句为优。

that carry为定语从句的限定修饰，如在无限定非限定区别的情况下，没有分词修饰简洁，但是在涉及限定非限定与有无歧义的情况下，选择定语从句修饰对象比较清晰。

请指正！！

这个问题我是这么看的:现在分词在句尾,与主句仅以一个逗号格开,分词是做状语表伴随;但这题没这么简单,主句和分词间隔着一个不定式,也可以说可以把分词理解为就近修饰不定式中的名词的.所以解释说做定语修饰check.

191. Lawmakers are examining measures that would require banks to disclose all fees and account requirements in writing, [to provide free cashing of government checks, (creating basic savings accounts to carry minimal fees and require minimal initial deposits.)]这么理解比分词大老远地去就是主句要合理

也就是说,由于被不定式格开,根据就近原则,现在分词只能修饰最近的名词.

这种中间隔着一个成分的修饰问题也是一个考点其他题目中也有体现..
