Q1: 整个修饰语应该是独立主格吧（如果我没记错，好久没系统看语法了。。）独立主格，性质上相当于状语。所 ...

想请教NN问题，请指教

Absolute Phrase 通常修饰一个clause，A选项The stars, some of them at tremendous speeds,这里也可以把它理解为独立主格吗，还是说它是stars的同位语？不是很懂同位语，manhattan好像也没有用专门的小节来提它

还有ex3，为什么它使定语从句呢，我觉得要这样写才是定语从句，一个非限制性定语从句。
The stars are in motion, which are at tremendous speed.

啊我啊我啊

对于Q1的看法：从句子逻辑上考虑，some of them 是对其中一类的说明，所以应该放在are in motion 的后面

我认为是这样的。刚刚查看了曼哈顿关于subgroup modifier部分的讲述：
When you want to describe a part of a larger group with a modifier, use one of the following three subgroup modifier constructions:
This model explains all known subatomic particles, SOME OF WHICH WE only recently discovered.
This model explains all known subatomic particles, SOME OF THEM only recently discovered.
This model explains all known subatomic particles, SOME only recently discovered.

我注意到这几个例子中，subgroup modifier都是修饰就近名词的。但是在本题中，由于主语前面有了like，而主语又要和谓语（are in motion）紧挨，且修饰语长于谓语，因此这个modifier放在了motion后面。其实不影响句意的
