引用baby姐:刚看到Stacey@Manhattan针对"comma+v-ing"举了个非常好的例子来阐释,分享下
Source: http://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/2012/01/28/modifiers-and-meaning-a-gmatprep-sentence-correction-problem-2

As a very general rule, think of a "comma -ing" as modifying the clause that it's touching (but the "comma -ing" could come at the beginning, middle, or end). When it comes at the beginning, we often think of it as a noun modifier, but it's still the same thing.
Slipping on the ice, I fell and broke my ankle. (Ouch!)
--> I'm not just trying to say that *I* slipped on the ice. I'm trying to say that, as a result of slipping on the ice, *I fell.*
I slipped on the ice, breaking my ankle.
--> again, it's not just that I broke my ankle - it's that I broke it because I slipped.
Note that I wouldn't say:
I fell and broke my ankle, slipping on the ice.
Why not?
--> In general, there's a sequence to these constructions. The thing that's written first happens first, and the second thing happens after, as a result of, as a consequence of the first thing.

再来是OG12 #30的例子:
我的excel上当时就摘抄了一个instructor的解释:
Try to read the sentence aloud with “protecting” and see if it makes sense:

…, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment, protecting warriors against enemy arrows and spears.

Not sure if it sounds right? Try flipping the two phrases(这个可行么?????) around like we did earlier by putting the descriptive phrase first and see if that makes sense:

Protecting warriors against enemy arrows and spears, animal-hide shields with wooden frames were essential items of military equipment.

这开始就开启了我一下午的困惑:manhattan的第4版中明确说到svo,ving和ving,svo这个ving的位置是可以互换的

但这样不会改变句子的意思么?一个是作为adverbial modifier一个是作为 noun或者verb modifier
看看OG12 30题
For members of the seventeenth-century Ashanti
nation in Africa, animal-hide shields with wooden
frames were essential items of military equipment,
a method to protect warriors against enemy arrows
and spears.
(A) a method to protect
(B) as a method protecting
(C) protecting
(D) as a protection of
(E) to protect

放在句末protecting表示的是一个结果(essential-----导致了protecting)
如果protecting放在句首就是(because of protecting-----were essential,就像baby姐之前给出的stacey的例子一样)

疑问来了,究竟manhattan上面说的svo,ving和ving,svo这个互换位置能被justify么?

ving,svo和svo,ving这个两个结构的意思是截然不同


但是,有一个结构的确是可以filp的




ving,svo和 s,ving,vo


这时为了方便理解,ving是可以提到主语前面的


坐等拍砖...

DD,这一题是一个主系表结构的啊,也就是说这个shield就是essential item,protecting无论放在前还是放在后都是会修饰这个shield的啊

mgsc应该有说的。

(我不知道我有没有回答到你的问题。。。)

我知道是主系表但是放在前面就是noun或者verb modifier
放在后面是adverbial modifier 我觉得意思有重大区别啊
如果按照baby姐的那个slipping的例子

-- by 会员 DUKB24 (2012/8/18 20:35:01)




baby姐姐按个slipping的例子是有重大区别,因为ing,svo是修饰主语,但是svo,ving可以表伴随,这时就出现意思的重大区别


主系表结构貌似只会是noun modifier啊
A=B,protecting,这个“=”好不可能会伴随着protecting吧?

这个是我在prep语法笔记找的。。
1)   如果前面是主系表结构,由于系动词是一个状态不存在“被伴随”,但是V-ing结构依然修饰的是整个主系表结构,所以后面的V-ing结构也可以被解读为修饰前面的名词成分主语(如果宾语是名词,也一同修饰,因为主系表结构中主语和宾语所指是同一事物--OG10-39, OG11-24中对正确选项C的解释)。
