prep08笔记 sc210 同位语的问题 真心求解

同位结构的形式
1)  名词性同位语：名词解释名词。（以下三种，第二个n.后可以跟修饰词）
i.  N., n.;   
ii.  n., a/an + n.或a/an + n., n.;      
iii.  the + n., n.（前面的the + n 为同位结构）
2)  内容具体化同位结构：抽象名词（theory/evidence/belief/principle）+that 从句，that从句对抽象名词
进行具体化解释（注意与of 结构的区别），that从句部分才是同位语。(that是小品词，连词，和一般
的名词性that分句中的that一样)
3)  概括性同位语：用一个概括性的名词去概括前面的修饰对象：短语/句子，n. + that / doing / done...

By merging its two publishing divisions, the company will increase their share of the country's $21 billion
book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging from obscure textbooks to mass-market
paperbacks.
A.  their share of the country's $21 billion book market from 6 percent to 10 percent, a market ranging
E.  to 10 percent from 6 percent its share of the country's $21 billion book market, which ranges

a选项为什么不能是同位语结构的形式啊？ a market ranging 不就是 “句子，n+doing 的形式吗？”

prep笔记说（A.  their指代the company错误。Ranging使得后面的分句没有谓语。）

到底是什么原因？

偶然搜到的..有点久远的帖子..是因为同位语需要紧邻修饰对象么?..不知道LZ还在不在

同意5楼的their..

我觉得是因为market没法概括前面的状况啊。。。。their也是错的

真的是好久远的帖子啊……仔细想了一下可能是因为同位语要临近修饰吧，这个同位语如果看成是名词性同位语，要修饰的是最邻近同位语的一个名词，而A中离同位语最近的不是market，所以修饰的是错误的。如果要看成概括性同位语，market也不是前一句的概括，前一句内容和market这个词无法对等，所以也不是概括性同位语。综上所述，不能当做同位语看待~

谢谢。刚刚看到了。

我搜了一下同位语的用法，可以当作额外的补充。

“In June of 1987, The Bridge of Trinquetaille, Vincent van Gogh's view of an iron bridge over the Rhone, was sold for $20.2 million…”

Placement of an Appositive
In the examples we have seen so far, the appositive is placed immediately after the word it is modifying. This is not, however, the only way in which an appositive can be placed.

First, it is possible for an appositive to be placed before the word or phrase that it modifies. For example, this excerpt from Sentence Correction problem number 72 from The Official Guide for GMAT Review 11th Edition (OG11) shows an appositive placed before the word that it modifies:

“Architects and stonemasons, the Maya built…”
“Architects and stonemasons” represents a non-essential appositive, modifying the noun “Maya.” It is correctly set off from the main clause by a comma.

It is also possible for an appositive to modify an entire preceding noun phrase, rather than only the specific noun that it touches directly. For example, this excerpt from Sentence Correction problem number 113 from The Official Guide for Verbal Review 2nd Edition (VR2, p. 267) shows the problematic placement of a prepositional phrase modifier (not an appositive):

“In A.D. 391, resulting from the destruction of the largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria, …”
According to the explanation for this problem, found on page 322 of VR2:

“The largest library of the ancient world at Alexandria is both cumbersome and ambiguous because it suggests that the ancient world was located at (and only at) Alexandria.”
In other words, this noun modifier in the form of the prepositional phrase “at Alexandria” refers only to the noun “world,” immediately preceding the modifier. The correct answer, found on page 267 of VR2, rephrases this part of the sentence:

“In A.D. 391, as a result of the destruction of the library at Alexandria, the largest of the ancient world, …”
The noun modifier “the largest of the ancient world” is now in the form of an appositive. Logically, of course, it should refer to the noun “library,” but that noun is not the noun immediately preceding the appositive. Rather, the noun “Alexandria” immediately precedes the appositive. The VR2 explanation for this problem goes on to say that this placement is acceptable:

“This problem is best corrected by breaking the series of phrases into two distinct parts: the library at Alexandria, the largest of the ancient world. Here, the second phrase clearly modifies the first.”
In other words, the second phrase, the appositive, is allowed to modify the entire first phrase. It does not have to modify only the immediately preceding noun.
